two_o way_n 1._o by_o a_o institution_n of_o god_n 2._o by_o the_o overrule_a power_n of_o a_o man_n misinform_a conscience_n and_o although_o by_o virtue_n of_o a_o institution_n divine_a worship_n be_v acceptable_a to_o god_n by_o christ_n yet_o conscience_n will_v make_v that_o a_o man_n shall_v have_v but_o little_a ease_n if_o such_o rule_n and_o dictate_v as_o it_o impose_v be_v not_o observe_v by_o he_o this_o be_v my_o answer_n upon_o a_o supposition_n that_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n be_v in_o this_o text_n intend_v and_o the_o answer_n i_o think_v stand_v firm_a and_o good_a also_o there_o remain_v notwithstanding_o this_o objection_n no_o divine_a sanction_n in_o or_o upon_o the_o old_a seventh-day-sabbath_n some_o indeed_o will_v urge_v that_o christ_n here_o mean_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o here_o he_o put_v under_o the_o term_n of_o sabbath_n but_o this_o be_v foreign_a to_o i_o so_o i_o wave_v it_o till_o i_o receive_v more_o satisfaction_n in_o the_o thing_n quest._n but_o if_o indeed_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v the_o new_a christian_a sabbath_n why_o be_v there_o no_o more_o speak_v of_o its_o iustitution_n in_o the_o testament_n of_o christ_n answ._n no_o more_o what_o need_n be_v there_o of_o more_o than_o enough_o yea_o there_o be_v a_o great_a deal_n find_v in_o the_o testament_n of_o the_o lord_n jesus_n to_o prove_v its_o authority_n divine_a 1._o for_o we_o have_v show_v from_o sundry_a scripture_n that_o from_o the_o very_a day_n our_o lord_n do_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a the_o church_n at_o jerusalem_n in_o which_o the_o twelve_o apostle_n be_v do_v meet_v together_o on_o that_o day_n and_o have_v the_o lord_n himself_o for_o their_o preacher_n while_o they_o be_v auditor_n and_o thus_o the_o day_n begin_v 2._o we_o have_v show_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n the_o third_z person_n in_o the_o trinity_n do_v second_o this_o of_o christ_n in_o come_v down_o from_o heaven_n upon_o this_o day_n to_o manage_v the_o apostle_n in_o their_o preach_n and_o in_o that_o very_a day_n so_o manage_v they_o in_o that_o work_n that_o by_o his_o help_n they_o then_o do_v bring_v three_o thousand_o soul_n to_o god_n 3._o we_o have_v show_v also_o that_o after_o this_o the_o gentile-churche_n do_v solemnize_v this_o day_n for_o holy_a worship_n and_o that_o they_o have_v from_o paul_n both_o countenance_n and_o order_n so_o to_o do_v and_o now_o i_o will_v add_v that_o more_o need_v not_o be_v speak_v for_o the_o practice_n of_o the_o first_o church_n with_o their_o lord_n in_o the_o head_n of_o they_o to_o manage_v they_o in_o that_o practice_n be_v as_o good_a as_o many_o command_n what_o then_o shall_v we_o say_v when_o we_o see_v a_o first_o practice_n turn_v into_o holy_a custom_n i_o say_v moreover_o that_o though_o a_o seventh-day-sabbath_n be_v not_o natural_a to_o man_n as_o man_n yet_o our_o christian_a holy_a day_n be_v natural_a to_o we_o as_o saint_n if_o our_o conscience_n be_v not_o clog_v before_o with_o some_o old_a fable_n or_o jewish_a custom_n but_o if_o a_o old_a religion_n shall_v get_v footing_n and_o root_n in_o we_o though_o the_o ground_n thereof_o be_v vanish_v away_o yet_o the_o man_n concern_v will_v be_v hard_o put_v to_o it_o shall_v he_o be_v save_v to_o get_v clear_a of_o his_o cloud_n and_o devote_v himself_o to_o that_o service_n of_o god_n which_o be_v of_o his_o own_o prescribe_v luther_n himself_o though_o he_o see_v many_o thing_n be_v without_o ground_n which_o he_o have_v receive_v for_o truth_n have_v yet_o work_v hard_a enough_o as_o himself_o intimate_v to_o get_v his_o conscience_n clear_a from_o all_o those_o root_n and_o string_n of_o inbred_a error_n but_o i_o say_v to_o a_o untainted_a and_o well-bred_a christian_a we_o have_v good_a measure_n shake_v together_o and_o run_v over_o for_o our_o christian_a lord_n day_n and_o i_o say_v again_o that_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o the_o spirit_n of_o such_o a_o christian_a suit_n one_o another_o as_o nature_n suit_v nature_n for_o there_o be_v as_o it_o be_v a_o natural_a instinct_n in_o christian_n as_o such_o when_o they_o understand_v what_o in_o a_o first_o day_n be_v bring_v forth_o to_o fall_v in_o therewith_o to_o keep_v it_o holy_a to_o their_o lord_n 1._o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n why_o it_o be_v the_o day_n of_o our_o life_n after_o two_o day_n he_o will_v revive_v we_o and_o in_o the_o three_o day_n we_o shall_v live_v in_o his_o sight_n after_o two_o day_n there_o be_v the_o jew_n preparation_n and_o seventh-day-sabbath_n quite_o pass_v over_o and_o in_o the_o three_o day_n that_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n which_o be_v the_o day_n our_o lord_n do_v rise_v

shall_v we_o not_o mark_v it_o when_o so_o many_o memorable_a thing_n be_v do_v on_o it_o for_o and_o lo_o and_o in_o the_o church_n of_o god_n let_v saint_n be_v ashamed_a to_o think_v that_o such_o a_o day_n shall_v be_v look_v over_o or_o count_v common_a when_o tempt_v to_o it_o by_o satan_n when_o keep_v to_o religious_a service_n of_o old_a and_o when_o beautifle_v with_o so_o many_o

they_o be_v not_o so_o assemble_v together_o again_o till_o then_o after_o eight_o day_n say_v he_o again_o the_o disciple_n be_v within_o clear_o conclude_v that_o they_o be_v not_o so_o on_o the_o day_n that_o be_v between_o no_o not_o on_o the_o old_a seven_o day_n now_o why_o shall_v the_o holy_a ghost_n thus_o precise_o speak_v of_o their_o assemble_v together_o upon_o the_o first_o day_n if_o not_o to_o confirm_v we_o in_o this_o that_o the_o lord_n have_v choose_v that_o day_n for_o the_o new_a sabbath_n of_o his_o church_n sure_o the_o apostle_n know_v what_o they_o do_v in_o their_o meeting_n together_o upon_o that_o day_n yea_o and_o the_o lord_n jesus_n also_o for_o that_o he_o use_v so_o to_o visit_v they_o when_o so_o assemble_v make_v his_o practice_n a_o law_n unto_o they_o for_o practice_n be_v enough_o for_o we_o new_a testament_n saint_n special_o when_o the_o lord_n jesus_n himself_o be_v in_o the_o head_n of_o that_o practice_n and_o that_o after_o he_o rise_v from_o the_o dead_a perhaps_o some_o may_v stumble_v at_o the_o word_n after_o after_o eight_o day_n but_o the_o meaning_n be_v at_o the_o conclusion_n of_o the_o eight_o day_n or_o when_o they_o have_v spend_v in_o a_o manner_n the_o whole_a of_o their_o sabbath_n in_o wait_v upon_o their_o lord_n then_o in_o come_v their_o lord_n and_o finish_v that_o their_o day_n service_n to_o he_o with_o confirm_v of_o thomas_n faith_n and_o by_o let_v drop_n other_o most_o heavenly_a treasure_n among_o they_o christ_n say_v he_o must_v lie_v three_o day_n and_o three_o night_n in_o the_o heart_n of_o the_o earth_n yet_o it_o be_v evident_a that_o he_o rise_v the_o three_o day_n 1_o cor._n 15._o 4._o we_o must_v take_v then_o a_o part_n for_o the_o whole_a and_o conclude_v that_o from_o the_o time_n that_o the_o lord_n jesus_n rise_v from_o the_o dead_a to_o the_o time_n that_o he_o show_v his_o hand_n and_o his_o side_n to_o thomas_n eight_o day_n be_v almost_o expire_v that_o be_v he_o have_v sanctify_v unto_o they_o two_o first_o day_n and_o have_v accept_v that_o service_n they_o have_v perform_v to_o he_o therein_o as_o he_o testify_v by_o give_v of_o they_o so_o bless_v a_o farewell_n at_o the_o conclusion_n of_o both_o those_o day_n hence_o now_o we_o conclude_v that_o this_o be_v the_o custom_n of_o the_o church_n at_o this_o day_n to_o wit_n upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o meet_v together_o and_o to_o wait_v upon_o their_o lord_n therein_o for_o the_o holy_a ghost_n count_v it_o needless_a to_o make_v a_o continue_a repetition_n of_o thing_n it_o be_v enough_o therefore_o if_o we_o have_v now_o and_o then_o mention_v make_v thereof_o obj._n but_o christ_n show_v himself_o alive_a to_o they_o at_o other_o time_n also_o as_o in_o joh._n 21_o etc._n etc._n answ._n the_o name_n of_o all_o those_o day_n in_o which_o he_o so_o do_v be_v obliterate_v and_o blot_v out_o that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v idolise_v for_o christ_n do_v not_o set_v they_o apart_o for_o worship_n but_o this_o day_n the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n by_o its_o name_n be_v keep_v alive_a in_o the_o church_n the_o holy_a ghost_n sure_o signify_v thus_o much_o that_o how_o hide_v soever_o other_o day_n be_v christ_n will_v have_v his_o day_n the_o first_o day_n have_v in_o everlasting_a remembrance_n among_o saint_n church_n also_o meet_v together_o now_o on_o the_o weekday_n and_o have_v the_o presence_n of_o christ_n with_o they_o too_o in_o their_o employment_n but_o that_o take_v not_o off_o from_o they_o the_o sanction_n of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n no_o more_o than_o it_o will_v take_v away_o the_o sanction_n of_o the_o old_a seven_o day_n have_v it_o still_o continue_a holy_a to_o they_o wherefore_o this_o be_v no_o let_v or_o objection_n to_o hinder_v our_o sanctify_a of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o our_o god_n but_o three_o add_v to_o this_o that_o upon_o pentecost_n which_o be_v the_o

upon_o this_o day_n i_o say_v the_o holy_a ghost_n say_v they_o be_v again_o with_o one_o accord_n together_o in_o one_o place_n but_o oh_o the_o glory_n that_o then_o attend_v they_o by_o the_o presence_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n among_o they_o never_o be_v such_o a_o thing_n do_v as_o be_v do_v on_o that_o first_o day_n till_o then_o we_o will_v read_v the_o text_n and_o when_o the_o day_n of_o pentecost_n be_v full_o come_v they_o be_v all_o with_o one_o accord_n in_o one_o place_n and_o sudden_o there_o come_v a_o sound_n from_o heaven_n as_o of_o a_o rush_v mighty_a wind_n and_o it_o

will_v note_v a_o few_o thing_n upon_o it_o first_o the_o church_n be_v now_o as_o on_o other_o first_o day_n all_o with_o one_o accord_n in_o one_o place_n we_o read_v not_o that_o they_o come_v together_o by_o virtue_n of_o any_o precedent_a revelation_n nor_o by_o accident_n but_o contrariwise_o by_o agreement_n they_o be_v to_o gather_v with_o one_o accord_n or_o by_o appointment_n in_o

second_o we_o read_v that_o this_o meeting_n of_o they_o be_v not_o begin_v on_o the_o old_a sabbath_n but_o when_o pentecost_n be_v full_o come_v the_o holy_a ghost_n intimate_v that_o they_o have_v

the_o lord_n day_n the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o fulfil_v the_o scripture_n and_o to_o sanctify_v yet_o further_o this_o holy_a day_n unto_o the_o use_n of_o all_o new_a testament_n church_n of_o the_o saint_n for_o since_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n our_o lord_n do_v rise_v from_o the_o dead_a and_o by_o his_o special_a presence_n i_o mean_v his_o personal_a do_v accompany_v his_o church_n therein_o and_o so_o preach_v as_o he_o do_v his_o holy_a truth_n unto_o they_o it_o be_v most_o meet_a that_o they_o on_o the_o same_o day_n also_o shall_v receive_v the_o first-fruit_n of_o their_o eternal_a life_n most_o glorious_o and_o i_o say_v again_o since_o from_o the_o resurrection_n of_o christ_n to_o this_o day_n the_o church_n then_o do_v receive_v upon_o the_o first_o day_n but_o as_o we_o read_v upon_o no_o other_o such_o glorious_a thing_n as_o we_o have_v mention_v it_o be_v enough_o to_o beget_v in_o the_o heart_n of_o they_o that_o love_v the_o son_n of_o god_n a_o high_a esteem_n of_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n but_o how_o much_o more_o when_o there_o shall_v be_v join_v to_o these_o proof_n that_o it_o be_v the_o custom_n of_o the_o first_o gospel-church_n the_o church_n of_o christ_n at_o jerusalem_n after_o our_o lord_n be_v rise_v to_o assemble_v together_o to_o wait_v upon_o god_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n with_o their_o lord_n as_o leader_n to_o say_v little_o more_o to_o this_o head_n but_o only_o to_o repeat_v what_o be_v write_v of_o this_o day_n of_o old_a to_o wit_n that_o it_o shall_v be_v proclaim_v the_o self_n same_o day_n to_o wit_n the_o morrow_n after_o the_o sabbath_n which_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n that_o it_o may_v be_v a_o holy_a convocation_n unto_o you_o
