preach_n of_o his_o word_n on_o the_o weekday_n as_o well_o as_o upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n to_o the_o conversion_n of_o many_o thousand_o soul_n but_o that_o let_v not_o but_o that_o preach_v must_v still_o be_v account_v as_o one_o of_o his_o sabbath-ordinance_n because_o god_n do_v first_o appoint_v it_o for_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o it_o be_v now_o but_o borrow_v to_o the_o weekday_n by_o the_o good_a hand_n of_o god_n upon_o man_n spirit_n as_o a_o furtherance_n to_o faith_n and_o holiness_n and_o i_o believe_v there_o be_v many_o thousand_o soul_n that_o will_v ready_o witness_v to_o the_o truth_n of_o this_o doctrine_n who_o by_o god_n blessing_n on_o the_o word_n preach_v on_o the_o weekday_n have_v be_v turn_v from_o darkness_n to_o light_n and_o from_o the_o power_n of_o satan_n to_o god_n and_o such_o person_n doubtless_o will_v with_o nehemiah_n account_v the_o sabbath_n day_n among_o the_o number_n of_o those_o special_a blessing_n that_o god_n bestow_v upon_o his_o people_n as_o a_o sign_n of_o his_o special_a grace_n in_o christ_n nehem._n 9_o 13_o 14._o hitherto_o i_o have_v speak_v of_o god_n blessing_n the_o seven_o day_n with_o

blessing_n at_o large_a even_o his_o public_a private_a duty_n be_v command_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o necessary_a handmaid_n to_o the_o public_a blessing_n upon_o the_o whole_a day_n he_o

must_v be_v set_v apart_o to_o his_o service_n and_o therefore_o when_o the_o public_a ordinance_n be_v end_v private_a duty_n must_v take_v place_n that_o the_o whole_a day_n may_v be_v bless_v to_o our_o soul_n and_o sanctify_v to_o the_o lord_n service_n let_v no_o man_n therefore_o mistake_v i_o for_o though_o i_o do_v not_o make_v private_a duty_n to_o be_v command_v in_o the_o first_o place_n yet_o i_o believe_v that_o private_a duty_n be_v command_v and_o bless_v of_o god_n as_o necessary_a handmaid_n to_o the_o public_a and_o there_o be_v good_a reason_n for_o it_o 1_o our_o barren_a heart_n our_o stony_a heart_n our_o thorny_a heart_n will_v not_o suffer_v the_o bless_a seed_n of_o the_o word_n the_o take_v root_n and_o to_o thrive_v there_o unless_o we_o do_v prepare_v

they_o be_v bind_v to_o hear_v with_o great_a attentivenesse_n and_o so_o god_n require_v a_o careful_a preparation_n of_o his_o people_n at_o the_o hear_n of_o the_o law_n ex._n 19_o 3_o after_o

the_o word_n sanctify_v in_o the_o next_o chapter_n chap._n x._o show_v how_o god_n do_v sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n 1_o god_n do_v not_o sanctify_v the_o seven_o day_n by_o put_v any_o inherent_a

for_o the_o separate_a time_n of_o his_o public_a worship_n and_o in_o this_o sense_n the_o word_n sanctify_v do_v imply_v a_o double_a command_n of_o god_n to_o fall_v man_n 1_o it_o imply_v that_o god_n command_v adam_n to_o set_v apart_o the_o seven_o day_n from_o all_o worldly_a use_n and_o to_o attend_v upon_o those_o spiritual_a ordinance_n wherewith_o he_o have_v bless_v the_o seven_o day_n 2_o it_o imply_v that_o god_n command_v fall_v adam_n to_o prepare_v his_o soul_n and_o body_n to_o come_v with_o all_o due_a care_n and_o reverence_n into_o the_o presence_n of_o god_n to_o be_v partaker_n of_o his_o sabbath-ordinance_n 1_o i_o will_v speak_v of_o the_o word_n sanctify_v as_o it_o imply_v the_o command_n of_o god_n to_o adam_n to_o set_v apart_o the_o seven_o day_n from_o all_o worldly_a use_n and_o to_o attend_v upon_o those_o spiritual_a ordinance_n wherewith_o god_n have_v bless_v the_o seven_o day_n and_o this_o be_v evident_a 1_o because_o god_n do_v never_o sanctify_v any_o thing_n for_o the_o use_n of_o fall_v man_n but_o he_o do_v thereby_o command_v fall_v man_n to_o sanctify_v 17._o when_o god_n do_v sanctify_v any_o thing_n for_o man_n he_o

also_o much_o to_o be_v lament_v that_o some_o christian_n do_v not_o only_o hold_v the_o seven_o day_n to_o be_v abolish_v but_o also_o that_o christ_n jesus_n have_v not_o establish_v any_o public_a

of_o the_o say_a ordinance_n shall_v now_o obliturate_a that_o commandment_n and_o sanctify_v no_o day_n at_o all_o for_o the_o exercise_n of_o his_o say_a ordinance_n can_v any_o man_n think_v that_o
