the_o first_o day_n be_v any_o command_n of_o god_n but_o simple_o that_o the_o church_n have_v agree_v to_o it_o to_o meet_v on_o that_o day_n and_o he_o say_v plain_o they_o may_v have_v choose_v another_o day_n as_o well_o as_o that_o now_o the_o query_n say_v that_o the_o saint_n do_v meet_v together_o this_o be_v scripture_n so_o we_o acknowledge_v that_o the_o saint_n do_v meet_v together_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o so_o we_o do_v according_a to_o their_o example_n and_o also_o we_o acknowledge_v that_o some_o considerable_a part_n of_o our_o life_n time_n be_v to_o be_v set_v apart_o for_o the_o solemn_a worship_n and_o service_n of_o god_n and_o this_o not_o only_o the_o scripture_n testimony_n but_o the_o law_n of_o god_n in_o our_o heart_n do_v require_v and_o we_o further_o judge_v that_o rather_o more_o of_o our_o time_n be_v to_o be_v give_v to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n solemn_o se●_n apart_o from_o all_o worldly_a occasion_n now_o under_o the_o new_a testament_n and_o that_o servant_n and_o beast_n may_v have_v rest_n for_o god_n require_v that_o mercy_n be_v show_v to_o they_o also_o than_o be_v former_o under_o the_o law_n by_o virtue_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o therefore_o we_o have_v meeting_n and_o other_o time_n of_o retirement_n at_o other_o time_n of_o the_o week_n than_o on_o the_o first_o day_n as_o also_o we_o do_v general_o abstain_v from_o bodily_a labour_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n although_o we_o can_v call_v it_o the_o christian_a sabbath_n for_o that_o be_v to_o put_v it_o in_o the_o room_n of_o christ_n but_o what_o abuse_n and_o profanity_n be_v it_o to_o pretend_v to_o set_v apart_o a_o day_n only_o for_o the_o service_n of_o god_n and_o yet_o to_o spend_v it_o worse_o than_o any_o other_o day_n of_o the_o week_n for_o most_o part_n to_o wit_n in_o idle_a communication_n play_n and_o drink_v as_o too_o many_o of_o i._n a._n his_o brethren_n open_o do_v and_o now_o let_v we_o see_v further_o what_o i._n a._n do_v allege_v for_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n its_o be_v appoint_v to_o be_v keep_v for_o a_o sabbath_n one_o

argument_n be_v that_o because_o christ_n rise_v on_o that_o day_n and_o honour_v it_o with_o his_o most_o frequent_a appearing_n after_o his_o resurrection_n on_o that_o day_n that_o therefore_o he_o appoint_v it_o to_o be_v keep_v for_o a_o sabbath_n but_o this_o inference_n be_v without_o any_o proof_n and_o be_v therefore_o return_v to_o he_o and_o it_o be_v manifest_a that_o at_o a_o certain_a time_n when_o christ_n do_v appear_v some_o of_o the_o disciple_n be_v fish_v with_o their_o net_n joh._n 21._o and_o if_o that_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o appoint_v by_o christ_n for_o a_o sabbath_n how_o be_v it_o that_o the_o disciple_n do_v so_o open_o transgress_v it_o and_o yet_o be_v not_o reprove_v by_o christ_n but_o be_v bid_v cast_v out_o the_o net_n by_o himself_o nor_o be_v his_o other_o argument_n of_o any_o great_a weight_n that_o because_o the_o primitive_a christian_n in_o the_o apostle_n time_n and_o downward_o do_v constant_o meet_v on_o that_o day_n and_o have_v their_o collection_n for_o the_o poor_a that_o therefore_o it_o be_v appoint_v to_o be_v strict_o observe_v as_o a_o sabbath_n this_o consequence_n be_v also_o return_v upon_o he_o as_o bare_o allege_v without_o proof_n and_o both_o we_o and_o many_o other_o protestant_n in_o france_n and_o holland_n constant_o meet_v on_o that_o day_n and_o yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o we_o or_o they_o hold_v it_o for_o a_o sabbath_n for_o many_o of_o they_o do_v not_o any_o more_o than_o we_o another_o argument_n of_o he_o be_v because_o it_o be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n rev._n 1._o 10._o to_o which_o i_o answer_v i._n a._n have_v not_o as_o yet_o prove_v it_o evident_o that_o by_o the_o lord_n day_n there_o be_v mean_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n but_o give_v it_o that_o john_n mean_v the_o first_o day_n as_o i_o find_v general_o that_o justine_n martin_n and_o other_o about_o his_o time_n do_v call_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o lord_n day_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o follow_v that_o therefore_o the_o lord_n appoint_v it_o to_o be_v keep_v as_o a_o sabbath_n for_o it_o may_v well_o enough_o he_o call_v the_o lord_n day_n because_o he_o arise_v upon_o it_o for_o many_o day●_n have_v receive_v name_n for_o much_o less_o reason_n according_a to_o the_o ancient_a tradition_n in_o old_a time_n which_o not_o be_v in_o scripture_n be_v not_o so_o certain_a to_o we_o as_o that_o other_o viz._n of_o christ_n his_o resurrection_n day_n another_o argument_n of_o he_o be_v because_o that_o christ_n teach_v the_o disciple_n to_o pray_v that_o their_o flight_n may_v not_o be_v on_o the_o winter_n nor_o on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n when_o he_o prophesy_v of_o the_o destruction_n of_o jerusalem_n math._n 24._o 20._o but_o to_o this_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o name_n of_o sabbath_n do_v not_o infer_v that_o any_o outward_a day_n be_v to_o be_v keep_v for_o a_o sabbath_n under_o the_o new_a testament_n more_o than_o the_o name_n of_o circumcision_n do_v infer_v that_o there_o be_v now_o to_o be_v any_o outward_a circumcision_n and_o what_o christ_n speak_v to_o the_o disciple_n it_o be_v not_o to_o they_o alone_o but_o to_o all_o the_o jew_n who_o as_o he_o do_v well_o know_v will_v still_o be_v zealous_a for_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n after_o his_o resurrection_n as_o indeed_o they_o be_v and_o also_o for_o circumcision_n and_o therefore_o he_o know_v what_o great_a a_o affliction_n it_o will_v be_v to_o they_o to_o be_v put_v to_o flee_v on_o that_o day_n and_o according_o we_o find_v that_o not_o only_o they_o but_o long_o after_o the_o jew_n even_o many_o of_o they_o that_o believe_v and_o also_o our_o christian_n do_v observe_v the_o jewish_a sabbath_n and_o some_o observe_v both_o that_o and_o also_o the_o first_o day_n until_o constantine_n time_n what_o christ_n therefore_o speak_v of_o the_o sabbath_n be_v not_o to_o confirm_v they_o to_o keep_v either_o that_o or_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n for_o a_o sabbath_n but_o to_o express_v the_o great_a affliction_n they_o will_v be_v in_o if_o they_o shall_v flee_v on_o that_o day_n which_o they_o so_o much_o do_v regard_n and_o beside_o
