seem_v strange_a i_o pray_v consider_v act_n 21.23_o 24_o 25._o where_o it_o be_v observable_a that_o a_o holy_a convocation_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n be_v meet_v at_o jerusalem_n do_v enjoin_v paul_n to_o observe_v something_n which_o at_o no_o hand_n they_o will_v have_v the_o gentile_n to_o observe_v but_o give_v they_o a_o solemn_a charge_n to_o the_o contrary_a for_o in_o the_o 23_o and_o 24_o verse_n the_o assembly_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n do_v enjoin_v paul_n say_v do_v this_o that_o we_o say_v to_o thou_o we_o have_v four_o man_n which_o have_v a_o vow_n upon_o they_o they_o take_v and_o purify_v thyself_o with_o they_o and_o be_v at_o charge_n with_o they_o that_o they_o may_v shave_v their_o head_n and_o all_o may_v know_v that_o those_o thing_n whereof_o they_o be_v inform_v concern_v thou_o be_v nothing_o but_o that_o thou_o thyself_o walk_v orderly_a and_o keep_v the_o law_n but_o as_o touch_v the_o gentile_n which_o believe_v we_o have_v write_v and_o conclude_v that_o they_o observe_v no_o such_o thing_n etc._n etc._n here_o we_o see_v a_o holy_a convocation_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n guide_v by_o the_o spirit_n of_o truth_n do_v require_v that_o of_o paul_n be_v a_o jew_n that_o they_o express_o command_v the_o gentile_a believer_n not_o to_o observe_v will_v it_o not_o be_v ridiculous_a then_o for_o a_o man_n to_o say_v that_o i_o must_v either_o observe_v all_o the_o apostle_n injunction_n to_o the_o jew_n or_o else_o that_o i_o must_v reject_v all_o the_o injunction_n of_o the_o apostle_n even_o those_o that_o concern_v the_o gentile_n for_o after_o this_o rate_n mr._n tillam_n reason_n viz._n that_o i_o must_v either_o observe_v all_o james_n his_o epistle_n or_o none_o at_o all_o because_o say_v he_o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o jew_n and_o greek_n now_o then_o by_o this_o place_n in_o the_o 21_o of_o the_o act_v you_o see_v there_o be_v some_o difference_n by_o order_n from_o the_o apostle_n in_o point_n of_o observation_n but_o no_o difference_n in_o point_n of_o justification_n which_o be_v the_o scope_n of_o the_o apostle_n in_o that_o text_n cite_v by_o mr._n tillam_n rom._n 10.11_o 12._o there_o be_v no_o difference_n between_o jew_n and_o greek_n for_o the_o same_o lord_n over_o all_o be_v rich_a unto_o all_o that_o call_v upon_o he_o so_o that_o the_o argument_n remain_v unanswered_a for_o all_o that_o mr._n tillam_n have_v say_v because_o the_o scripture_n say_v plain_o that_o the_o uncircumcised_a gentile_n be_v not_o bind_v to_o keep_v the_o whole_a law_n therefore_o from_o those_o word_n the_o whole_a law_n the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n can_v reasonable_o be_v infer_v neither_o let_v any_o one_o think_v to_o relieve_v himself_o by_o the_o help_n of_o this_o distinction_n viz._n that_o though_o believer_n be_v not_o to_o keep_v the_o whole_a law_n as_o it_o contain_v moral_n and_o ceremonial_n yet_o they_o be_v bind_v to_o observe_v the_o whole_a law_n as_o it_o contain_v moral_n only_o for_o first_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n make_v no_o such_o distinction_n as_o a_o whole_a and_o a_o whole_a law_n neither_o do_v the_o scripture_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n make_v any_o such_o distinction_n for_o when_o it_o speak_v of_o the_o whole_a law_n with_o reference_n to_o the_o law_n of_o moses_n it_o always_o include_v both_o moral_a ceremonial_a and_o judicial_a law_n which_o be_v all_o but_o several_a part_n of_o the_o israelite_n whole_a law_n but_o second_o suppose_v we_o shall_v allow_v the_o distress_a the_o help_n of_o this_o distinction_n viz._n that_o sometime_o moses_n law_n be_v call_v the_o whole_a law_n with_o reference_n to_o the_o moral_a part_n of_o it_o only_o as_o suppose_v it_o so_o in_o this_o 2_o of_o james_n now_o under_o debate_n do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v part_n of_o the_o moral_a law_n be_v not_o the_o imagination_n of_o such_o a_o conceit_n as_o this_o a_o stranger_n to_o the_o heart_n of_o a_o ingenious_a disputant_n who_o abhor_v to_o beg_v that_o question_n he_o can_v prove●_n for_o can_v that_o be_v but_o prove_v which_o be_v so_o often_o take_v for_o grant_v viz._n that_o the_o keep_n of_o the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n be_v a_o moral_a duty_n than_o the_o controversi●●_n be_v at_o a_o end_n for_o doubtless_o all_o believer_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o whole_a moral_a law_n mr._n tillam_n whereas_o you_o say_v somewhat_o be_v enjoin_v upon_o the_o jew_n that_o be_v not_o upon_o the_o gentile_n i_o question_v if_o this_o be_v not_o the_o apostle_n weakness_n for_o they_o be_v subject_a to_o like_a passion_n for_o at_o another_o time_n a_o less_o matter_n than_o this_o mention_v by_o you_o act_n 21._o be_v count_v

to_o believe_v jew_n than_o there_o be_v one_o law_n for_o the_o believe_a jew_n and_o another_o for_o the_o believe_a gentile_n and_o if_o so_o believe_v jew_n be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n and_o believe_v gentile_n be_v not_o and_o how_o can_v this_o be_v without_o confusion_n mr._n ives_n i_o answer_v to_o the_o last_o first_o that_o then_o your_o book_n be_v full_a of_o confusion_n for_o in_o your_o book_n you_o allow_v both_o day_n to_o be_v observe_v to_o wit_n the_o seven_o day_n and_o the_o first_o day_n and_o second_o the_o scripture_n be_v full_a of_o confusion_n if_o you_o say_v true_a for_o the_o scripture_n tell_v we_o of_o the_o jew_n observation_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o the_o gentile_n of_o the_o first_o day_n but_o second_o it_o follow_v not_o that_o the_o believe_a jew_n be_v bind_v by_o my_o confession_n to_o keep_v the_o seventh-day_n sabbath_n see_v that_o your_o term_n whole_a law_n mention_v in_o james_n 2._o do_v not_o prove_v the_o sabbath_n to_o be_v there_o intend_v any_o more_o than_o it_o prove_v circumcision_n or_o any_o other_o jewish_a ceremony_n three_o when_o i_o cite_v a_o text_n to_o show_v that_o the_o apostle_n be_v guide_v by_o god_n holy_a spirit_n do_v order_n paul_n be_v a_o jew_n to_o observe_v some_o thing_n which_o they_o strict_o command_v the_o gentile_n not_o to_o observe_v mr._n tillam_n answer_v that_o this_o be_v the_o apostle_n weakness_n by_o which_o it_o appear_v that_o rather_o than_o mr._n tillam_n will_v be_v account_v weak_a he_o will_v brand_v the_o apostle_n paul_n and_o the_o whole_a council_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n assemble_v at_o jerusalem_n with_o the_o holy_a ghost_n with_o weakness_n but_o it_o be_v more_o likely_a that_o mr._n tillam_n shall_v be_v weak_a then_o paul_n and_o all_o that_o assembly_n among_o who_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v present_a in_o so_o solemn_a a_o judgement_n and_o whereas_o mr._n tillam_n tell_v we_o that_o peter_n play_v the_o hypocrite_n gal._n 2.13_o in_o that_o he_o compel_v the_o gentile_n to_o live_v as_o do_v the_o jew_n i_o answer_v that_o this_o be_v nothing_o to_o our_o purpose_n first_o because_o the_o text_n cite_v by_o i_o act._n 21._o only_a speak_v of_o jew_n that_o be_v advise_v to_o live_v as_o jew_n and_o of_o gentile_n that_o be_v forbid_v so_o to_o live_v vers_fw-la 25._o but_o the_o text_n in_o gal._n 2._o speak_v of_o gentile_n that_o peter_n do_v compel_v to_o live_v as_o do_v the_o jew_n which_o be_v clear_o another_o thing_n now_o then_o if_o this_o text_n cite_v by_o mr._n tillam_n gal._n 2._o in_o which_o it_o be_v say_v peter_n be_v to_o blame_v for_o compel_v the_o gentile_n to_o live_v as_o do_v the_o jew_n i_o say_v if_o this_o text_n serve_v any_o thing_n to_o the_o

21._o but_o also_o the_o whole_a assembly_n of_o apostle_n in_o which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v present_a a_o piece_n of_o such_o great_a presumption_n that_o scarce_o can_v be_v parallel_v in_o any_o story_n and_o whereas_o he_o say_v the_o instance_n act_v 21._o be_v of_o the_o ceremonial_a law_n and_o not_o of_o the_o royal_a law_n i_o answer_v that_o all_o god_n law_n be_v royal_a but_o second_o though_o the_o instance_n in_o

say_v it_o be_v in_o act_n the_o 21._o &_o 20_o 21_o 22_o 23_o 24_o 25._o verse_n the_o word_n be_v these_o thou_o see_v brother_n how_o many_o thousand_o of_o the_o jew_n there_o be_v which_o believe_v and_o they_o be_v all_o zealous_a of_o the_o law_n and_o they_o be_v inform_v of_o thou_o that_o thou_o teach_v all_o the_o jew_n which_o be_v among_o the_o gentile_n to_o forsake_v moses_n say_v that_o they_o ought_v not_o to_o circumcise_v their_o child_n neither_o to_o walk_v after_o the_o custom_n what_o be_v it_o therefore_o the_o multitude_n must_v needs_o come_v together_o for_o they_o will_v hear_v that_o thou_o be_v come_v do_v therefore_o this_o that_o we_o say_v to_o thou_o we_o have_v four_o man_n which_o have_v a_o vow_n upon_o they_o they_o take_v and_o purify_v they_o

but_o that_o thou_o thyself_o also_o walk_v orderly_a and_o keep_v the_o law_n but_o as_o touch_v the_o gentile_n which_o believe_v we_o have_v write_v and_o conclude_v that_o they_o observe_v no_o such_o thing_n etc._n etc._n whence_o i_o observe_v these_o two_o thing_n first_o that_o here_o be_v a_o injunction_n lay_v upon_o paul_n and_o other_o believe_a jew_n that_o be_v not_o lay_v upon_o the_o believe_a gentile_n that_o they_o be_v believe_v jew_n see_v verse_n 20._o that_o this_o injunction_n be_v not_o lay_v upon_o believe_a gentile_n see_v verse_n 25._o where_o the_o gentile_n that_o believe_v be_v express_o forbid_v such_o observation_n second_o these_o be_v no_o mean_a person_n that_o do_v enjoin_v these_o thing_n but_o they_o be_v a_o holy_a convocation_n of_o apostle_n and_o elder_n among_o who_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v precedent_n as_o appear_v act_n 15.28_o compare_v with_o act_n 21_o &_o 25._o so_o that_o if_o ever_o there_o be_v a_o unerring_a council_n in_o the_o world_n this_o be_v one_o who_o be_v guide_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n that_o be_v send_v to_o lead_v into_o all_o truth_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v horrible_a presumption_n to_o think_v that_o these_o do_v err_v and_o yet_o these_o do_v enjoin_v such_o thing_n upon_o the_o believe_a jew_n that_o they_o express_o charge_v the_o believe_a gentile_n not_o to_o observe_v mr._n

now_o to_o enjoin_v such_o a_o thing_n as_o this_o will_v be_v to_o deny_v christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o therefore_o it_o be_v no_o other_o than_o a_o prudent_a advice_n that_o the_o

he_o notwithstanding_o this_o condescension_n to_o the_o law_n therefore_o the_o condescension_n be_v for_o the_o sake_n of_o the_o jew_n that_o believe_v and_o not_o for_o the_o sake_n of_o those_o that_o conspire_v his_o death_n but_o three_o whereas_o he_o say_v the_o apostle_n do_v advise_v paul_n to_o condescend_v but_o do_v not_o enjoin_v it_o for_o if_o they_o have_v enjoin_v he_o to_o

that_o according_a to_o mr._n coppingers_n notion_n upon_o the_o text_n they_o do_v advise_v paul_n to_o do_v that_o which_o by_o consequence_n do_v deny_v christ_n come_v in_o the_o flesh_n and_o

i_o that_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v not_o include_v in_o these_o word_n day_n month_n time_n and_o year_n my_o last_o reason_n why_o christ_n never_o commánd_v the_o gentile_n to_o ●●serve_v the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n be_v because_o the_o apostle_n give_v a_o toleration_n to_o the_o christian_n to_o keep_v every_o day_n as_o they_o be_v persuade_v in_o their_o own_o mind_n either_o to_o esteem_v one_o day_n above_o another_o or_o every_o day_n alike_o rom._n 14.5_o which_o liberty_n he_o can_v not_o have_v give_v they_o if_o christ_n have_v confirm_v the_o law_n of_o moses_n to_o the_o believe_a gentile_n but_o this_o argument_n do_v meet_v with_o two_o objection_n the_o one_o be_v that_o this_o can_v not_o be_v understand_v of_o every_o day_n according_a to_o the_o letter_n of_o the_o text_n because_o the_o apostle_n give_v a_o toleration_n to_o eat_v all_o thing_n and_o yet_o the_o holy_a ghost_n act._n 15._o forbid_v the_o eat_n of_o blood_n and_o thing_n strangle_v etc._n etc._n in_o like_a manner_n say_v they_o must_v we_o restrain_v the_o word_n every_o day_n to_o be_v understand_v of_o every_o day_n but_o the_o sabbath_n to_o which_o i_o answer_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n have_v put_v a_o restriction_n upon_o the_o word_n every_o thing_n but_o neither_o christ_n the_o holy_a ghost_n nor_o the_o apostle_n have_v put_v a_o restriction_n upon_o this_o word_n every_o day_n therefore_o no_o mortal_a man_n ought_v to_o take_v that_o liberty_n to_o restrain_v the_o word_n of_o a_o text_n when_o the_o holy_a spirit_n do_v not_o restrain_v they_o the_o second_o thing_n object_v against_o this_o argument_n from_o rom._n 14._o be_v this_o viz._n that_o if_o we_o be_v at_o liberty_n and_o under_o no_o restraint_n but_o may_v keep_v every_o day_n alike_o then_o there_o be_v no_o reason_n to_o observe_v any_o day_n the_o answer_n to_o this_o objection_n make_v way_n for_o the_o last_o thing_n intend_v which_o be_v to_o show_v that_o though_o christ_n have_v set_v we_o at_o liberty_n from_o those_o moysaicall_a institution_n for_o the_o observation_n of_o day_n and_o have_v make_v all_o day_n alike_o in_o respect_n of_o any_o moysaicall_a sanctity_n yet_o it_o do_v not_o therefore_o follow_v that_o we_o may_v spend_v every_o day_n to_o the_o service_n of_o the_o flesh_n and_o choose_v whether_o we_o will_v set_v apart_o any_o time_n to_o the_o service_n of_o god_n as_o i_o have_v already_o hint_v page_n 90._o for_o first_o god_n have_v free_v we_o from_o that_o place_n of_o worship_n by_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n unto_o which_o both_o jew_n and_o proselyte_n be_v enjoin_v to_o come_v up_o to_o worship_n which_o be_v in_o the_o temple_n at_o jerusalem_n and_o now_o christ_n have_v make_v every_o place_n alike_o in_o that_o one_o place_n have_v no_o more_o legal_a or_o moysaicall_a sanctity_n than_o another_o do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o christian_n may_v abuse_v this_o liberty_n and_o choose_v whether_o they_o will_v meet_v to_o worship_n god_n in_o any_o place_n or_o no_o no_o more_o do_v it_o follow_v that_o because_o christ_n have_v make_v all_o day_n alike_o in_o respect_n of_o any_o moysaicall_a sanctity_n that_o therefore_o we_o may_v choose_v whether_o we_o will_v keep_v any_o day_n at_o all_o again_o second_o christ_n have_v set_v we_o free_a from_o those_o moysaicall_a law_n which_o god_n make_v for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o levitical_a priesthood_n and_o legal_a ministry_n and_o have_v not_o enjoin_v we_o how_o much_o or_o how_o little_a the_o minister_n of_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v allow_v do_v it_o therefore_o follow_v that_o we_o may_v choose_v whether_o we_o will_v allow_v they_o any_o thing_n or_o nothing_o in_o like_a manner_n it_o do_v not_o follow_v because_o christ_n have_v take_v away_o the_o moysaicall_a institution_n for_o the_o observation_n of_o day_n that_o therefore_o we_o may_v choose_v whether_o we_o will_v observe_v any_o day_n or_o any_o time_n for_o the_o worship_n and_o service_n of_o god_n but_o to_o this_o it_o be_v object_v that_o though_o christ_n have_v take_v away_o that_o kind_n of_o maintenance_n yet_o he_o have_v ordain_v that_o they_o which_o preach_v the_o gospel_n shall_v live_v of_o the_o gospel_n 1_o cor._n 9.1_o i_o answer_v in_o like_a manner_n that_o though_o he_o have_v take_v away_o those_o moysaicall_a

because_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n have_v teach_v all_o people_n to_o set_v apart_o some_o time_n to_o worship_n and_o serve_v their_o god_n for_o if_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n do_v enjoin_v man_n to_o worship_n it_o do_v also_o enjoin_v they_o to_o observe_v some_o time_n in_o which_o they_o ought_v to_o worship_n after_o this_o manner_n the_o apostle_n argue_v in_o the_o forecited_a scripture_n for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o gospel-ministery_n show_v that_o the_o light_n of_o nature_n teach_v that_o they_o which_o plant_v a_o vineyard_n ought_v to_o eat_v of_o the_o fruit_n thereof_o and_o that_o they_o which_o plough_n shall_v plough_v in_o hope_n to_o be_v partaker_n of_o their_o hope_n the_o like_a reason_n if_o not_o much_o great_a he_o urge_v why_o they_o that_o sow_v spiritual_a thing_n shall_v partake_v of_o temporal_a thing_n so_o that_o though_o god_n have_v free_v we_o from_o that_o maintenance_n of_o minister_n and_o that_o place_n of_o worship_n that_o be_v command_v in_o the_o law_n yet_o there_o remain_v a_o moral_a obligation_n upon_o we_o to_o observe_v some_o place_n to_o worship_n god_n in_o and_o also_o to_o provide_v a_o competent_a maintenance_n for_o those_o that_o administer_v spiritual_a thing_n unto_o we_o in_o like_a manner_n there_o remain_v a_o moral_a obligation_n upon_o we_o to_o observe_v a_o time_n to_o worship_n
