by_o all_o christian_a church_n be_v romish_n but_o as_o a_o other_o holy_a day_n until_o luther_n and_o many_o year_n since_o for_o until_o luther_n or_o thereabouts_o our_o church_n have_v

so_o long_o what_o 1600_o year_n they_o bewray_v their_o own_o error_n &_o ignorance_n to_o speak_v so_o for_o i_o have_v show_v that_o the_o church_n never_o account_v it_o or_o keep_v it_o for_o a_o

needs_o be_v a_o part_n of_o the_o worship_n of_o god_n because_o it_o be_v command_v with_o the_o other_o part_n of_o god_n worship_n in_o the_o first_o table_n of_o the_o decalogue_n 2._o i_o

the_o king_n coin_v make_v it_o light_a and_o lesser_a than_o his_o majesty_n coin_v it_o for_o argum_fw-la xviii_o my_o 18_o argument_n for_o the_o maintenance_n of_o the_o ancient_a sabbath_n day_n be_v that_o it_o must_v be_v moral_a and_o still_o in_o use_n because_o it_o be_v observe_v by_o christian_n with_o the_o approbation_n of_o the_o holy_a ghost_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o abolition_n of_o all_o ceremony_n and_o thus_o i_o argue_v the_o observation_n of_o that_o thing_n by_o christianes_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o abolition_n of_o all_o ceremony_n which_o the_o holy_a ghost_n record_v to_o posterity_n by_o way_n of_o approbation_n and_o commendation_n that_o be_v no_o ceremony_n but_o moral_a and_o still_o in_o force_n but_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n be_v celebrate_v by_o christian_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o abolition_n of_o all_o ceremony_n and_o be_v record_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n to_o all_o posterity_n by_o way_n of_o approbation_n &_o commendation_n therefore_o the_o observation_n of_o the_o old_a sabbath_n day_n be_v no_o ceremony_n but_o a_o moral_a &_o still_o in_o force_n for_o the_o major_n there_o can_v be_v no_o doubt_n of_o it_o for_o since_o that_o all_o ceremony_n have_v their_o period_n and_o last_o date_n at_o christ_n death_n upon_o the_o cross_n it_o can_v be_v think_v that_o the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v give_v the_o least_o commendation_n or_o approbation_n of_o any_o ceremony_n practise_v after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n at_o which_o time_n all_o ceremony_n have_v their_o end_n unless_o we_o shall_v think_v the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v build_v up_o again_o what_o christ_n have_v throw_v down_o it_o can_v be_v think_v the_o holy_a ghost_n will_v give_v any_o approbation_n of_o a_o ceremony_n unto_o posterity_n and_o the_o christian_a church_n succeed_v wherefore_o the_o observation_n of_o christian_o commend_v by_o the_o holy_a ghost_n after_o the_o death_n of_o christ_n and_o all_o ceremony_n must_v be_v judge_v a_o moral_a i_o come_v to_o the_o minor_a the_o truth_n of_o which_o i_o prove_v out_o of_o luk._n 23.56_o and_o they_o

therefore_o to_o give_v such_o reason_n as_o may_v take_v place_n in_o a_o carnal_a mind_n for_o the_o former_a of_o these_o i_o prove_v that_o it_o be_v meet_v we_o shall_v keep_v a_o sabbath_n day_n

thus_o it_o may_v be_v frame_v if_o no_o day_n of_o the_o week_n can_v be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n by_o the_o four_o come_v but_o the_o seven_o day_n only_o then_o must_v the_o seven_o day_n be_v our_o

day_n as_o for_o the_o major_a or_o first_o proposition_n no_o man_n will_v deny_v it_o for_o every_o man_n stand_v to_o maintain_v a_o sabbath_n and_o also_o a_o sabbath_n from_o the_o four_o come_v wherefore_o if_o no_o day_n of_o the_o 7_o can_v be_v sabbath_n by_o the_o 4._o come_v bâ—t_v the_o seven_o day_n then_o of_o necessity_n they_o must_v hold_v the_o seven_o day_n to_o be_v our_o sabbath_n day_n and_o so_o i_o come_v to_o the_o minor_a or_o second_o proposition_n to_o wit_n that_o no_o day_n of_o the_o week_n can_v be_v a_o sabbath_n day_n by_o the_o four_o come_v but_o the_o seven_o day_n only_o and_o this_o i_o prove_v from_o the_o four_o come_v itself_o where_o the_o lord_n have_v command_v we_o to_o work_v all_o the_o day_n of_o the_o week_n save_o the_o seven_o day_n

be_v most_o plain_a unless_o you_o will_v suppose_v foolish_o that_o god_n shall_v say_v &_o unsay_v it_o again_o with_o the_o same_o breath_n wherefore_o since_o none_o of_o the_o 6_o day_n of_o

that_o not_o only_o towards_o mankind_n in_o general_a but_o also_o unto_o mercy_n both_o unto_o man_n &_o beast_n and_o thus_o i_o argue_v that_o which_o be_v express_o command_v in_o the_o moral_a
