5_o 7_o 8._o and_o so_o likewise_o in_o other_o place_n of_o scripture_n the_o first_o reason_n be_v from_o the_o nature_n of_o god_n with_o who_o we_o have_v to_o do_v reason_v 1_o he_o be_v

every_o man_n that_o have_v hear_v and_o learn_v of_o the_o father_n etc._n etc._n the_o father_n speak_v and_o the_o soul_n hear_v from_o the_o father_n i_o answer_v first_o speak_v not_o as_o though_o christ_n do_v not_o speak_v but_o he_o come_v to_o send_v they_o to_o to_o the_o father_n go_v to_o he_o and_o hear_v he_o that_o be_v not_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o no_o christ_n cut_v off_o all_o such_o thought_n in_o the_o next_o verse_n every_o man_n that_o have_v hear_v and_o learn_v of_o the_o father_n etc._n etc._n not_o that_o any_o man_n have_v see_v the_o father_n etc._n

you_o see_v here_o that_o be_v not_o the_o meaning_n of_o it_o christ_n be_v a_o sufficient_a doctor_n he_o be_v the_o great_a prophet_n of_o his_o church_n and_o be_v able_a to_o instruct_v his_o

though_o a_o man_n shall_v say_v now_o a_o man_n be_v under_o the_o work_n of_o the_o father_n and_o then_o under_o the_o work_n of_o the_o son_n and_o then_o under_o the_o work_n of_o the_o holy_a

sometime_o therefore_o to_o say_v that_o the_o soul_n be_v now_o under_o the_o work_n of_o the_o father_n and_o now_o under_o the_o work_n of_o the_o son_n and_o now_o under_o the_o work_n of_o the_o

repine_v at_o his_o doctrine_n he_o put_v in_o this_o no_o man_n come_v unto_o i_o except_o the_o father_n draw_v he_o he_o mean_v their_o utter_a inability_n of_o come_v to_o he_o by_o nature_n

be_v bear_v again_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n the_o second_o point_n be_v this_o that_o all_o that_o be_v regenerate_v all_o that_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n they_o be_v spirit_n that_o be_v they_o be_v spiritual_a they_o be_v like_o the_o spirit_n the_o first_o be_v that_o it_o be_v the_o spirit_n of_o god_n the_o holy_a ghost_n saint_n that_o do_v regenerate_v all_o the_o people_n of_o god_n this_o be_v that_o which_o make_v they_o to_o be_v new_a creature_n to_o be_v new_a man_n to_o be_v altogether_o different_a from_o that_o they_o be_v before_o this_o be_v that_o which_o

it_o so_o that_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n do_v unite_v all_o the_o saint_n of_o god_n together_o in_o one_o body_n then_o here_o we_o may_v see_v the_o reason_n of_o the_o difference_n of_o man_n

he_o can_v never_o do_v it_o therefore_o john_n 5.26_o see_v what_o christ_n say_v very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o that_o the_o hour_n shall_v come_v when_o the_o dead_a shall_v hear_v the_o voice_n

first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n call_v it_o the_o lord_n day_n i_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n so_o that_o it_o be_v not_o by_o apostolical_a tradition_n only_o but_o by_o the_o institution_n of_o god_n himself_o he_o do_v call_v it_o the_o lord_n day_n i_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n upon_o the_o lord_n day_n he_o call_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o lord_n day_n by_o the_o same_o reason_n that_o the_o sacrament_n be_v call_v the_o lord_n supper_n now_o the_o sacrament_n be_v so_o call_v because_o the_o lord_n institute_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v holy_a so_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v call_v so_o because_o the_o lord_n institute_v it_o and_o therefore_o it_o must_v be_v keep_v holy_a reas_n 3_o another_o argument_n be_v this_o our_o saviour_n christ_n himself_o do_v entitle_v himself_o to_o be_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n and_o therefore_o able_a to_o alter_v it_o and_o change_v it_o and_o appoint_v what_o business_n be_v to_o be_v do_v and_o what_o not_o to_o be_v do_v upon_o that_o day_n he_o do_v open_o profess_v that_o he_o be_v lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n mark_v 2.28_o and_o john_n 5.23_o he_o say_v they_o shall_v honour_v the_o son_n as_o they_o honour_v the_o father_n as_o they_o honour_v the_o father_n with_o a_o sabbath_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o rest_n from_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n so_o they_o shall_v honour_v the_o son_n with_o a_o sabbath_n in_o regard_n of_o his_o rest_n from_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n which_o be_v compare_v with_o rev._n 1.10_o where_o it_o be_v call_v the_o lord_n day_n these_o two_o be_v put_v together_o do_v plain_o prove_v it_o reas_n 4_o four_o christ_n himself_o do_v command_v his_o apostle_n to_o keep_v this_o day_n it_o be_v not_o by_o the_o apostle_n counsel_n as_o if_o they_o will_v set_v up_o this_o day_n in_o the_o church_n as_o some_o will_v have_v it_o but_o christ_n do_v command_v they_o so_o to_o do_v for_o the_o apostle_n do_v deliver_v nothing_o general_o to_o the_o church_n but_o what_o they_o receive_v from_o the_o lord_n as_o paul_n say_v what_o i_o have_v receive_v from_o the_o lord_n that_o i_o declare_v unto_o you_o 1_o cor._n 11._o but_o i_o will_v prove_v it_o be_v the_o commandment_n of_o christ_n to_o they_o by_o this_o argument_n because_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v always_o keep_v for_o the_o assembly_n of_o the_o people_n of_o god_n before_o the_o apostle_n dare_v order_v any_o thing_n in_o the_o church_n the_o apostle_n never_o dare_v undertake_v to_o set_v up_o any_o order_n in_o the_o church_n until_o the_o holy_a ghost_n fall_v upon_o they_o in_o fiery_a tongue_n and_o that_o be_v forty_o day_n after_o now_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n be_v keep_v long_o before_o this_o john_n 20.19_o they_o keep_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o again_o the_o next_o week_n ver_fw-la 26._o they_o keep_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o luke_n 24._o they_o keep_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o if_o you_o compare_v three_o or_o four_o place_n of_o scripture_n together_o as_o mat._n 28.16_o 20._o together_o with_o john_n 20.19_o 26._o we_o shall_v see_v plain_o in_o john_n that_o they_o do_v meet_v upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o in_o mat._n 28._o we_o shall_v see_v that_o christ_n appoint_v they_o so_o to_o do_v it_o be_v by_o his_o commandment_n reas_n 5_o five_o another_o argument_n to_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v by_o divine_a institution_n and_o not_o by_o humane_a ordinance_n be_v this_o because_o the_o wisdom_n of_o jesus_n christ_n will_v never_o have_v commit_v such_o a_o weighty_a thing_n as_o this_o be_v to_o the_o judgement_n of_o man_n certain_o the_o lord_n jesus_n christ_n before_o his_o ascend_v up_o unto_o his_o father_n will_v never_o have_v leave_v thing_n to_o raw_a and_o uncertain_a and_o imperfect_a as_o to_o leave_v such_o a_o branch_n of_o such_o a_o sacred_a ordinance_n to_o be_v at_o the_o arbitrament_n of_o man_n be_v so_o apt_a to_o take_v liberty_n and_o so_o negligent_a to_o keep_v any_o day_n holy_a sure_o the_o lord_n will_v never_o have_v leave_v it_o to_o the_o arbitrament_n of_o man_n therefore_o we_o may_v well_o conclude_v it_o be_v to_o be_v find_v in_o scripture_n by_o ordination_n of_o god_n for_o mark_v what_o the_o apostle_n say_v as_o moses_n be_v faithful_a in_o all_o his_o house_n so_o christ_n be_v faithful_a in_o all_o his_o house_n heb._n 3.2_o 3._o he_o prove_v that_o christ_n be_v more_o faithful_a than_o moses_n now_o moses_n be_v faithful_a for_o he_o deliver_v the_o whole_a mind_n of_o god_n to_o the_o people_n of_o israel_n there_o be_v nothing_o leave_v out_o for_o time_n or_o place_n or_o manner_n there_o be_v not_o any_o ceremony_n in_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n leave_v out_o but_o he_o deliver_v all_o to_o they_o he_o be_v faithful_a so_o christ_n be_v faithful_a in_o his_o house_n therefore_o see_v christ_n know_v how_o ready_a man_n be_v to_o neglect_v and_o profane_v the_o sabbath_n plain_a reason_n tell_v we_o that_o he_o will_v order_v it_o himself_o reas_n 6_o again_o who_o shall_v institute_n any_o ordinance_n in_o the_o church_n but_o only_o he_o that_o be_v the_o head_n of_o the_o church_n reas_n 7_o again_o another_o argument_n be_v this_o it_o have_v be_v the_o practice_n of_o all_o holy_a man_n since_o the_o apostle_n day_n to_o keep_v this_o day_n that_o it_o be_v the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n that_o you_o will_v grant_v that_o they_o keep_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n now_o if_o there_o be_v no_o argument_n but_o this_o that_o the_o apostle_n do_v keep_v it_o this_o be_v enough_o to_o prove_v the_o change_n of_o the_o day_n when_o we_o find_v that_o the_o apostle_n do_v sanctify_v this_o day_n this_o be_v proof_n enough_o to_o stay_v our_o mind_n for_o certain_o they_o have_v a_o more_o infallible_a guidance_n and_o direction_n than_o we_o have_v and_o they_o insist_v upon_o this_o day_n 1_o cor._n 16.1.2_o they_o ordain_v and_o john_n the_o divine_a keep_v this_o day_n though_o he_o be_v in_o the_o place_n of_o his_o banishment_n where_o he_o can_v hear_v no_o sermon_n but_o be_v all_o alone_a yet_o he_o will_v keep_v the_o sabbath_n on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n and_o the_o lord_n reward_v his_o sanctify_a of_o this_o day_n by_o declare_v the_o revelation_n unto_o he_o to_o encourage_v all_o good_a people_n to_o go_v on_o in_o keep_v this_o day_n but_o to_o leave_v these_o and_o come_v to_o the_o time_n of_o the_o ancient_a father_n immediate_o after_o the_o apostle_n they_o all_o agree_v upon_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n jgnatius_n do_v so_o and_o saint_n austin_n say_v as_o the_o virgin_n mary_n be_v among_o woman_n so_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n among_o day_n as_o she_o be_v bless_v above_o woman_n so_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n bless_v above_o day_n no_o man_n that_o make_v conscience_n of_o his_o way_n but_o shall_v find_v a_o blessing_n upon_o eyery_a day_n but_o god_n have_v bless_v this_o day_n in_o a_o more_o peculiar_a
