in_o the_o gospel_n that_o day_n that_o he_o rise_v still_o he_o glorify_v it_o with_o his_o presence_n eight_o day_n after_o he_o rise_v he_o come_v and_o show_v himself_o to_o his_o disciple_n and_o

warrant_n enough_o that_o they_o have_v do_v it_o before_o we_o for_o so_o we_o have_v in_o many_o other_o thing_n the_o practice_n of_o the_o apostle_n to_o be_v a_o rule_n of_o our_o faith_n christ_n not_o determine_v many_o particular_a thing_n in_o the_o church_n but_o leave_v it_o to_o the_o discretion_n of_o the_o wise_a those_o that_o shall_v be_v well_o furnish_v with_o knowledge_n for_o the_o direct_n of_o thing_n in_o their_o place_n where_o they_o be_v therefore_o that_o which_o the_o apostle_n do_v it_o be_v the_o act_n of_o christ_n for_o they_o do_v it_o not_o of_o

the_o decalogue_n or_o ten_o commandment_n be_v a_o perpetual_a law_n but_o this_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o decalogue_n therefore_o this_o be_v a_o perpetual_a law_n and_o the_o precept_n that_o

they_o do_v not_o keep_v it_o before_o the_o flood_n but_o yet_o there_o be_v the_o institution_n of_o it_o therefore_o see_v it_o be_v a_o law_n give_v before_o moses_n and_o before_o the_o fall_n of_o man_n it_o follow_v it_o be_v immutable_a and_o unchangeable_a because_o if_o there_o be_v any_o change_n it_o must_v be_v for_o imperfection_n and_o if_o there_o be_v any_o imperfection_n it_o must_v be_v for_o sin_n and_o there_o be_v no_o sin_n before_o the_o fall_n therefore_o whatsoever_o be_v command_v before_o the_o fall_n be_v so_o perfect_a that_o it_o can_v not_o be_v alter_v it_o

the_o cause_n of_o it_o remain_v the_o law_n must_v also_o continue_v and_o therefore_o there_o be_v many_o law_n that_o be_v make_v and_o abrogate_v again_o because_o there_o be_v no_o use_n of_o they_o they_o be_v make_v in_o such_o a_o time_n for_o such_o thing_n and_o the_o cause_n fail_v the_o law_n cease_v but_o where_o the_o law_n have_v a_o perpetual_a cause_n there_o the_o law_n be_v in_o force_n to_o continue_v always_o but_o the_o cause_n of_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n continue_v the_o meditation_n and_o contemplation_n upon_o the_o work_n of_o god_n and_o the_o holy_a

labour_n to_o find_v out_o the_o likely_a for_o in_o truth_n there_o be_v innumerable_a many_o and_o the_o place_n be_v very_o difficult_a only_o two_o thing_n we_o be_v most_o sure_o of_o in_o this_o

a_o thing_n that_o be_v public_a notorious_a and_o know_v to_o the_o corinthian_n it_o be_v a_o matter_n that_o be_v not_o obscure_a to_o they_o although_o it_o be_v to_o we_o for_o the_o apostle_n

resurrection_n second_o another_o thing_n be_v that_o whatsoever_o this_o baptism_n be_v yet_o certain_o it_o be_v a_o thing_n of_o much_o force_n it_o be_v a_o great_a argument_n to_o prove_v that_o which_o the_o apostle_n intend_v for_o it_o be_v not_o his_o manner_n to_o deal_v weak_o in_o prove_v and_o dispute_v but_o he_o use_v all_o the_o strength_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n as_o

1_o first_o it_o may_v be_v demand_v because_o it_o be_v say_v that_o adam_n be_v make_v a_o live_a soul_n and_o that_o christ_n be_v make_v a_o quicken_a spirit_n whether_o christ_n be_v not_o a_o

their_o kind_n they_o be_v both_o true_a for_o christ_n be_v not_o only_o make_v a_o quicken_a spirit_n but_o he_o have_v a_o body_n as_o adam_n have_v and_o he_o be_v a_o live_a soul_n as_o well_o

therefore_o for_o the_o first_o we_o must_v understand_v that_o it_o be_v true_a that_o the_o lord_n christ_n be_v make_v a_o live_a soul_n as_o well_o as_o adam_n for_o there_o be_v a_o gross_a

it_o be_v certain_a that_o he_o take_v our_o soul_n as_o well_o as_o he_o take_v our_o flesh_n and_o so_o be_v make_v a_o live_a soul_n as_o well_o as_o adam_n and_o it_o appear_v also_o by_o this_o in_o that_o he_o have_v two_o will_n in_o he_o as_o he_o have_v two_o nature_n the_o nature_n of_o god_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n unite_v in_o one_o person_n so_o likewise_o he_o have_v two_o

will_v but_o as_o thou_o will_v but_o the_o will_n of_o his_o manhood_n appear_v in_o this_o thas_o as_o he_o be_v a_o man_n he_o be_v afraid_a of_o death_n 26.42_o mat._n 26.42_o he_o desire_v that_o

two_o place_n we_o observe_v that_o liberty_n that_o the_o lord_n give_v to_o his_o church_n 16.2_o 1_o cor._n 16.2_o to_o change_v the_o seven_o day_n to_o the_o eight_o and_o whereupon_o upon_o

of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n and_o they_o have_v such_o firm_a argument_n and_o reason_n as_o may_v sway_v they_o against_o the_o common_a tenant_n of_o the_o jewish_a slavery_n and_o bondage_n whereby_o they_o be_v tie_v and_o bind_v to_o the_o observation_n of_o their_o sabbath_n the_o first_o main_a reason_n that_o the_o church_n have_v for_o the_o change_n of_o the_o sabbath_n christ_n 1_o to_o show_v the_o prerogative_n of_o christ_n it_o be_v to_o show_v the_o prerogative_n of_o the_o son_n of_o god_n which_o say_v of_o himself_o the_o son_n of_o man_n be_v lord_n of_o the_o

change_v the_o time_n of_o the_o sabbath_n the_o moral_a action_n he_o change_v not_o that_o always_o continue_v we_o must_v have_v a_o day_n to_o worship_n god_n in_o we_o shall_v worship_v god_n always_o but_o the_o public_a worship_n of_o god_n be_v the_o proper_a end_n and_o office_n of_o the_o sabbath_n i_o but_o for_o the_o time_n why_o it_o shall_v be_v upon_o the_o seven_o day_n or_o on_o the_o eight_o day_n this_o be_v leave_v in_o the_o lordship_n of_o christ_n be_v the_o lord_n of_o the_o sabbath_n which_o therefore_o can_v tell_v what_o he_o do_v when_o he_o will_v rejourne_v the_o sabbath_n to_o some_o other_o time_n where_o it_o may_v be_v a_o figure_n of_o some_o better_a signification_n therefore_o to_o show_v the_o glory_n of_o the_o son_n of_o man_n the_o church_n think_v good_a to_o change_v the_o time_n of_o the_o sabbath_n to_o another_o time_n redemption_n 2_o in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n second_o there_o be_v another_o reason_n as_o athanasius_n athanasius_n athanasius_n observe_v upon_o those_o word_n of_o christ_n all_o thing_n be_v give_v to_o i_o of_o my_o father_n he_o extend_v it_o thus_o far_o even_o to_o the_o

the_o first_o be_v the_o work_n of_o creation_n and_o the_o second_o be_v the_o work_n of_o redemption_n wherein_o the_o world_n be_v recreated_a and_o make_v anew_o for_o the_o first_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n the_o old_a sabbath_n be_v institute_v and_o ordain_v of_o god_n in_o remembrance_n of_o his_o work_n for_o god_n rest_v the_o seven_o day_n from_o all_o the_o work_n that_o he_o have_v wrought_v and_o create_v in_o the_o six_o day_n before_o he_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o bless_v it_o and_o hallow_v it_o for_o man_n to_o remember_v the_o work_n he_o have_v create_v in_o the_o six_o work_a day_n and_o that_o man_n shall_v also_o work_v in_o six_o day_n as_o he_o have_v do_v and_o rest_n upon_o the_o seven_o day_n for_o as_o the_o lord_n have_v wrought_v six_o

redemption_n be_v a_o great_a matter_n than_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n when_o the_o lord_n create_v the_o world_n by_o his_o omnipotent_a power_n he_o do_v but_o speak_v the_o word_n and_o it_o

land_n and_o there_o be_v present_o sea_n and_o land_n and_o every_o thing_n else_o necessary_a but_o when_o he_o wrought_v redemption_n it_o be_v not_o do_v by_o a_o word_n but_o it_o cost_v the_o

the_o justice_n of_o god_n must_v be_v satisfy_v which_o can_v not_o be_v satisfy_v but_o the_o sinner_n must_v loose_v his_o life_n which_o he_o have_v forfeit_v to_o god_n and_o god_n himself_o must_v do_v it_o the_o person_n of_o god_n must_v take_v upon_o he_o the_o nature_n of_o man_n to_o suffer_v death_n for_o sinful_a man_n that_o have_v deserve_v death_n everlasting_a this_o be_v the_o work_n of_o recreation_n and_o redemption_n now_o say_v athanasius_n these_o work_n have_v their_o several_a age_n the_o work_n of_o the_o creation_n be_v to_o be_v remember_v until_o christ_n
