By Mr. James Fitch ...	Fitch, James, 1622-1702.; Mather, Increase, 1639-1723.; Fitch, James, 1622-1702. Brief discourse proving that the first day of the week is the Christian Sabbath.; Connecticut.

to_o be_v our_o christian_a sabbath_n we_o may_v see_v in_o 1_o cor._n 16.12_o 1._o that_o which_o be_v there_o express_v be_v by_o way_n of_o precept_n and_o injunction_n for_o so_o the_o apostle_n say_v he_o have_v give_v order_n concern_v the_o collection_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o therefore_o not_o leave_v it_o as_o a_o matter_n of_o indifferency_n or_o liberty_n but_o whosoever_o do_v neglect_v this_o do_v transgress_v the_o apostolical_a precept_n and_o order_n 2._o this_o order_n for_o the_o collection_n for_o the_o saint_n be_v not_o only_o send_v to_o the_o church_n at_o corinth_n but_o to_o the_o church_n at_o galatia_n so_o that_o it_o be_v a_o order_n and_o injunction_n common_a to_o the_o church_n 3._o the_o order_n do_v not_o only_o respect_v the_o collection_n itself_o but_o the_o time_n and_o day_n of_o it_o that_o upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n let_v every_o one_o lay_v by_o he_o in_o store_n as_o god_n have_v prosper_v he_o so_o it_o be_v express_v in_o the_o 2_o d._n verse_n now_o the_o argument_n follow_v arg._n the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v either_o a_o common_a and_o indifferent_a day_n or_o a_o holy_a day_n the_o day_n of_o the_o christian_a sabbath_n but_o no_o common_a and_o indifferent_a day_n for_o how_o can_v the_o apostle_n by_o his_o injunction_n and_o order_n make_v it_o necessary_a for_o the_o church_n to_o attend_v this_o work_n of_o mercy_n collection_n for_o the_o saint_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n if_o it_o be_v but_o a_o common_a day_n and_o thus_o esteem_v one_o common_a day_n above_o another_o contrary_n to_o his_o doctrine_n rom._n 14.5_o far_o be_v it_o from_o we_o to_o think_v that_o the_o apostle_n can_v so_o contradict_v his_o own_o doctrine_n but_o it_o be_v because_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v make_v to_o be_v a_o holy_a day_n and_o such_o work_n of_o mercy_n be_v very_o suitable_a unto_o the_o day_n 2_o arg._n or_o thus_o the_o apostle_n do_v order_n collection_n for_o the_o saint_n to_o be_v on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n either_o because_o it_o be_v the_o christian_a sabbath_n or_o for_o some_o other_o reason_n but_o i_o have_v so_o long_o wait_v to_o he●r_v of_o some_o other_o reason_n why_o the_o apostle_n shall_v lay_v a_o injunction_n upon_o all_o church_n to_o have_v such_o a_o honourable_a respect_n to_o this_o day_n without_o any_o consideration_n of_o it_o as_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o christian_a sabbath_n and_o all_o the_o objector_n and_o caviller_n against_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o lord_n day_n have_v not_o bring_v forth_o the_o least_o appearance_n of_o any_o reason_n to_o the_o contrary_a that_o i_o confess_v i_o begin_v to_o think_v that_o the_o opponent_n themselves_o within_o themselves_o have_v receive_v a_o sentence_n of_o despair_n of_o give_v any_o reason_n only_o they_o have_v travel_v and_o bring_v forth_o one_o poor_a objection_n that_o there_o be_v not_o a_o word_n speak_v of_o a_o sabbath_n here_o and_o who_o say_v there_o be_v but_o the_o argument_n be_v take_v from_o the_o apostle_n order_n and_o by_o apostolical_a order_n advance_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n above_o any_o other_o day_n and_o that_o the_o reason_n of_o this_o be_v either_o because_o it_o be_v the_o day_n of_o the_o christian_a sabbath_n or_o for_o some_o other_o reason_n which_o never_o yet_o be_v bring_v to_o light_n and_o therefore_o we_o conclude_v as_o in_o the_o former_a that_o the_o apostle_n by_o his_o doctrine_n do_v settle_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o be_v a_o holy_a day_n a_o christian_a sabbath_n now_o in_o the_o next_o place_n concern_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n &_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o church_n of_o which_o much_o may_v be_v say_v in_o order_n to_o their_o attendance_n to_o holy_a duty_n in_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n because_o it_o be_v a_o day_n separate_v for_o holy_a worship_n but_o at_o present_a we_o may_v consider_v act_n 20.7_o first_o it_o be_v a_o church_n assembly_n there_o speak_v of_o for_o it_o be_v say_v the_o disciple_n come_v together_o 2._o second_o the_o end_n for_o the_o sake_n of_o which_o they_o come_v together_o it_o be_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o religious_a duty_n that_o they_o may_v partake_v of_o the_o lord_n supper_n call_v break_v of_o bread_n in_o this_o place_n as_o in_o act._n 2.42_o and_o do_v not_o go_v alone_o without_o other_o religious_a performance_n viz._n prayer_n and_o hear_v the_o word_n preach_v 3._o three_o it_o be_v speak_v of_o as_o a_o custom_n and_o usual_a practice_n of_o the_o disciple_n therefore_o it_o be_v say_v on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n when_o the_o disciple_n come_v together_o paul_n have_v wait_v for_o and_o take_v this_o opportunity_n to_o preach_v to_o they_o for_o he_o abide_v seven_o day_n among_o they_o but_o this_o be_v the_o last_o day_n his_o be_v ready_a to_o depart_v on_o the_o morrow_n as_o be_v express_v in_o the_o seven_o verse_n arg._n hence_o the_o argument_n be_v paul_n and_o the_o disciple_n with_o he_o either_o keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n or_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n a_o christian_a sabbath_n or_o else_o they_o keep_v no_o sabbath_n at_o all_o if_o they_o have_v keep_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n that_o be_v the_o day_n before_o this_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n than_o they_o have_v a_o meeting_n after_o a_o sabbath_n manner_n for_o religious_a duty_n than_o the_o evangelist_n will_v not_o have_v speak_v of_o this_o meeting_n on_o the_o first_o day_n as_o the_o only_a church_n meet_v of_o the_o seven_o day_n of_o the_o apostle_n abode_n among_o they_o therefore_o it_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n in_o which_o paul_n and_o the_o disciple_n assemble_v and_o keep_v as_o a_o christian_a sabbath_n much_o more_o have_v be_v say_v by_o other_o and_o i_o have_v somewhat_o more_o in_o readiness_n to_o say_v if_o the_o occasion_n call_v for_o it_o and_o god_n give_v opportunity_n but_o at_o present_a have_v prove_v that_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v by_o the_o lord_n himself_o make_v by_o his_o word_n and_o by_o his_o work_n to_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n and_o our_o gospel_n and_o christian_a sabbath_n and_o his_o apostle_n be_v guide_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o settle_v it_o in_o the_o room_n and_o place_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n both_o by_o their_o doctrine_n and_o by_o their_o practice_n we_o proceed_v to_o make_v reply_n to_o john_n r._n his_o answer_n to_o the_o question_n and_o concern_v his_o preface_n to_o his_o answer_n i_o shall_v at_o present_a omit_v it_o until_o i_o come_v to_o his_o conclusion_n and_o then_o consider_v both_o his_o preface_n and_o conclusion_n together_o these_o and_o the_o superscription_n be_v to_o the_o same_o purpose_n and_o the_o same_o for_o substance_n quest_n 1._o the_o first_o question_n be_v not_o just_a and_o necessary_a consequence_n from_o scripture_n to_o be_v take_v for_o the_o mind_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o scripture_n or_o else_o how_o shall_v we_o answer_v the_o papist_n against_o the_o error_n of_o transubstantiation_n john_n r._n his_o answer_n be_v ans_fw-fr if_o the_o consequence_n draw_v from_o scripture_n be_v agreeable_a to_o the_o scripture_n and_o no_o way_n contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n it_o must_v be_v grant_v truth_n because_o it_o speak_v what_o the_o scripture_n speak_v but_o as_o to_o the_o papist_n john_n r._n say_v they_o have_v no_o scripture_n that_o say_v a_o piece_n of_o bread_n be_v the_o body_n of_o our_o lord_n or_o that_o our_o lord_n be_v turn_v into_o a_o piece_n of_o bread_n or_o that_o bread_n be_v turn_v into_o our_o lord_n for_o our_o lord_n do_v not_o say_v to_o his_o disciple_n take_v eat_v this_o bread_n be_v my_o body_n as_o the_o papist_n do_v affirm_v therefore_o they_o say_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o say_v so_o do_v you_o say_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o say_v for_o you_o call_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o christian_a sabbath_n but_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o you_o call_v every_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o lord_n day_n but_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o so_o reply_v the_o reply_n to_o john_n r._n his_o answer_n follow_v his_o answer_n consist_v of_o two_o part_n 1._o first_o partly_o of_o a_o seem_a concession_n grant_v that_o consequence_n draw_v from_o scripture_n and_o agreeable_a to_o scripture_n be_v truth_n etc._n etc._n 2._o second_o he_o compare_v we_o unto_o the_o papist_n for_o say_v that_o which_o the_o scripture_n do_v not_o say_v and_o the_o argument_n he_o give_v be_v if_o we_o say_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o lord_n day_n

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 brief_o that_o which_o have_v be_v say_v out_o of_o rev._n 1.10_o as_o follow_v the_o day_n call_v the_o lord_n day_n be_v some_o particular_a day_n well_o know_v to_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n 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 pass_v for_o legal_a testimony_n in_o any_o court_n of_o justice_n upon_o earth_n and_o they_o who_o oppose_v it_o must_v be_v legal_o condemn_v for_o liar_n and_o more_o than_o all_o this_o it_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 foretell_v he_o will_v make_v to_o be_v the_o day_n in_o which_o above_o all_o other_o day_n we_o shall_v rejoice_v psal_n 118_o 24._o and_o with_o his_o almighty_a hand_n he_o have_v perform_v it_o by_o the_o work_n of_o his_o mighty_a power_n which_o he_o wrought_v in_o christ_n jesus_n when_o he_o raise_v he_o from_o the_o dead_a eph._n 1.20_o and_o in_o this_o very_a day_n reveal_v himself_o to_o his_o disciple_n as_o the_o exalt_a head_n of_o his_o church_n and_o people_n and_o in_o this_o very_a day_n commission_v his_o apostle_n and_o breathe_v the_o holy_a ghost_n in_o the_o same_o day_n upon_o they_o to_o empower_v and_o enable_v they_o in_o all_o thing_n respect_v their_o work_n as_o apostle_n of_o christ_n and_o particular_o by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n guide_v the_o apostle_n to_o settle_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n in_o all_o the_o church_n of_o christ_n as_o it_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n and_o our_o christian_a sabbath_n but_o more_o of_o this_o in_o that_o which_o follow_v and_o thus_o that_o which_o the_o lord_n have_v wrought_v according_a to_o his_o word_n may_v well_o pass_v or_o divine_a testimony_n in_o the_o court_n of_o consecience_n that_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v by_o divine_a institution_n the_o lord_n day_n and_o our_o christian_a sabbath_n and_o now_o let_v we_o proceed_v in_o the_o second_o place_n to_o prove_v 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 apostle_n in_o all_o the_o church_n in_o the_o primitive_a time_n first_o by_o their_o doctrine_n second_o by_o their_o practice_n 1._o by_o their_o doctrine_n for_o for_o the_o clear_n of_o this_o let_v we_o consider_v heb._n 4.8.9_o where_o the_o apostle_n do_v by_o his_o doctrine_n inform_v we_o of_o a_o rest_n which_o remain_v to_o the_o people_n of_o god_n and_o another_o day_n of_o rest_n and_o to_o make_v way_n for_o the_o argument_n let_v we_o open_v that_o scripture_n 1._o first_o he_o speak_v of_o a_o sabbatism_n so_o the_o word_n in_o the_o original_a be_v a_o rest_v resemble_v by_o the_o seven_o day_n rest_n speak_v of_o in_o the_o three_o and_o four_o verse_n and_o by_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n mention_v in_o the_o seven_o and_o eight_o verse_n 2._o this_o be_v another_o rest_n and_o therefore_o another_o day_n for_o this_o rest_n thus_o in_o 8_o &_o 9_o verse_n and_o i_o shall_v at_o present_a content_n myself_o with_o pareus_n his_o exposition_n until_o i_o meet_v with_o a_o better_a that_o 〈◊〉_d in_o the_o psalm_n to_o which_o the_o apostle_n have_v respect_n do_v speak_v of_o another_o rest_n and_o a_o day_n of_o rest_n which_o be_v neither_o the_o seven_o day_n rest_n nor_o the_o rest_n in_o the_o land_n of_o canaan_n but_o signify_v and_o exemplify_v by_o the_o one_o and_o shadow_v out_o by_o the_o other_o and_o the_o apostle_n demonstration_n of_o this_o doctrine_n may_v be_v expound_v by_o ad_fw-la sjunctive_a syllogism_n arg._n either_o it_o be_v of_o the_o first_o rest_n of_o god_n in_o which_o he_o cease_v

the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o apostle_n be_v in_o the_o 8_o and_o 9th_o verse_n of_o another_o sabbath_n of_o rest_n 3._o this_o rest_n and_o day_n of_o rest_n speak_v of_o by_o the_o apostle_n
