remain_v john_n 9_o 41._o bot_n to_o help_v the_o mind_n and_o memory_n of_o those_o who_o be_v sensible_a of_o their_o weakness_n but_o be_v willing_a to_o hear_v and_o see_v let_v we_o gather_v up_o

otherwise_o it_o be_v in_o vain_a and_o to_o no_o purpose_n for_o the_o apostle_n to_o have_v speak_v a_o word_n of_o the_o day_n and_o this_o day_n call_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v a_o holy_a day_n otherwise_o it_o can_v not_o have_v the_o holy_a name_n proper_a unto_o holy_a thing_n and_o holy_a time_n and_o that_o the_o day_n call_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n this_o have_v be_v prove_v both_o by_o the_o testimony_n of_o all_o church_n in_o all_o age_n though_o cavel_v against_o by_o some_o in_o late_a time_n yet_o this_o their_o testimony_n may_v well_o

have_v be_v infallable_o prove_v by_o the_o word_n of_o god_n and_o his_o work_n that_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o very_a day_n which_o the_o lord_n by_o his_o prophet_n

that_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v make_v by_o his_o word_n and_o work_n to_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n and_o our_o christian_a sabbath_n be_v settle_v by_o the_o

and_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o say_v it_o than_o we_o be_v like_o the_o papist_n reply_v the_o reply_n be_v that_o we_o have_v already_o prove_v that_o the_o scripture_n say_v that_o the_o first_o

this_o be_v my_o body_n but_o john_n r._n do_v hold_v to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o four_o command_n respect_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n contrary_a to_o the_o command_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o

as_o he_o be_v man_n he_o be_v make_v of_o a_o woman_n and_o make_v under_o the_o law_n hence_o his_o argument_n be_v if_o christ_n as_o a_o m●n_z be_v make_v of_o a_o woman_n under_o the_o law_n then_o as_o god-man_n he_o be_v not_o lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n if_o this_o be_v good_a divinity_n then_o let_v john_n r._n proceed_v to_o say_v that_o because_o he_o be_v man_n make_v under_o the_o

to_o say_v christ_n as_o god_n man_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n reply_v my_o reply_n be_v that_o if_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n it_o be_v either_o as_o

thus_o he_o be_v under_o the_o law_n and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v as_o he_o be_v god_n man_n that_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o yet_o john_n rogers_n say_v this_o be_v not_o a_o
