he_o make_v they_o by_o jesus_n christ_n but_o christ_n the_o son_n of_o god_n speak_v to_o we_o in_o the_o last_o day_n he_o do_v it_o in_o and_o by_o his_o humanity_n but_o so_o he_o create_v not_o

so_o by_o what_o have_v be_v former_o say_v and_o prove_v be_v john_n 14.15_o if_o you_o love_v i_o keep_v my_o command_n and_o such_o other_o like_o passage_n here_o i_o will_v feign_v inquire_v in_o what_o sense_n he_o understand_v the_o command_n to_o be_v christ_n command_n either_o as_o he_o be_v jehovah_n and_o so_o before_o his_o incarnation_n if_o so_o than_o the_o ceremonial_a and_o

we_o be_v bind_v to_o keep_v the_o one_o as_o well_o as_o the_o other_o if_o we_o will_v evince_v to_o our_o own_o conscience_n or_o other_o observation_n that_o we_o sincere_o love_v christ_n if_o he_o understand_v they_o to_o be_v his_o after_o his_o incarnation_n as_o teach_v command_v and_o confirm_v by_o his_o own_o bless_a mouth_n and_o doctrine_n so_o we_o confess_v that_o all_o the_o moral_a law_n be_v he_o and_o that_o he_o teach_v it_o in_o the_o discharge_n of_o his_o prophetical_a office_n in_o the_o flesh_n but_o then_o we_o affirm_v and_o doubt_v not_o to_o prove_v that_o in_o all_o his_o doctrine_n discourse_n and_o command_n there_o be_v not_o one_o word_n that_o teach_v or_o enjoin_v the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n but_o much_o to_o the_o contrary_a or_o if_o there_o be_v only_o a_o perfect_a silence_n in_o this_o particular_a without_o any_o thing_n speak_v or_o do_v by_o christ_n contrary_a to_o it_o whilst_o he_o particular_o enjoin_v and_o press_v all_o those_o other_o precept_n which_o be_v acknowledge_v by_o all_o to_o be_v moral_a i_o suppose_v this_o very_a exclusion_n of_o it_o out_o of_o all_o his_o discourse_n carry_v more_o weight_n in_o it_o to_o cashier_v it_o from_o be_v any_o one_o of_o the_o command_v of_o christ_n jesus_n than_o all_o his_o former_a endeavour_n to_o prove_v christ_n to_o be_v the_o maker_n of_o the_o world_n to_o be_v jehovah_n and_o here_o to_o be_v the_o giver_n of_o the_o law_n have_v of_o moment_n to_o prove_v the_o morality_n and_o so_o the_o necessary_a observance_n of_o the_o seventh-day_n i_o have_v be_v here_o a_o little_a the_o more_o large_a because_o i_o find_v the_o author_n page_n 24._o refer_v unto_o his_o have_v prove_v the_o law_n to_o be_v give_v by_o christ_n as_o to_o that_o which_o

that_o create_v the_o world_n and_o rest_v but_o it_o be_v indeed_o jehovah_n and_o though_o christ_n be_v
particular_a rite_n of_o the_o old_a testament_n more_o particular_o speak_v of_o in_o the_o new_a testament_n by_o the_o apostle_n towards_o its_o exclusion_n from_o the_o christian_a church_n than_o circumcision_n yet_o there_o be_v no_o express_a command_n against_o it_o that_o i_o know_v of_o and_o i_o assert_v that_o let_v he_o bring_v what_o argument_n he_o can_v from_o these_o epistle_n against_o it_o i_o will_v produce_v the_o same_o against_o the_o seventh-day-sabbath_n and_o so_o they_o must_v either_o stand_v or_o fall_v upon_o the_o same_o ground_n and_o so_o must_v the_o other_o ceremony_n that_o be_v not_o so_o much_o as_o mention_v in_o the_o book_n of_o the_o new_a testament_n again_o here_o he_o recur_v to_o the_o danger_n and_o presumption_n of_o indulge_v to_o conjecture_n and_o humane_a fancy_n in_o the_o thing_n of_o god_n without_o any_o warrant_n from_o scripture_n or_o against_o the_o command_n thereof_o under_o a_o pretence_n of_o honour_v god_n and_o christ_n thereby_o and_o unworthy_o apply_v all_o this_o to_o the_o assertor_n of_o the_o lordsday_n but_o to_o this_o we_o have_v answer_v already_o and_o doubt_v not_o but_o to_o be_v as_o innocent_a in_o this_o respect_n as_o himself_o and_o this_o be_v the_o sum_n of_o all_o his_o answer_n to_o this_o argument_n for_o the_o first-day-sabbath_n but_o we_o must_v not_o so_o leave_v it_o but_o speak_v what_o i_o hope_v god_n will_v direct_v to_o the_o vindication_n of_o it_o and_o here_o we_o must_v know_v that_o this_o argument_n be_v not_o the_o solitary_a proof_n that_o we_o bring_v for_o the_o lords-day_n holy_a observation_n for_o than_o it_o may_v seem_v to_o carry_v no_o great_a weight_n with_o it_o but_o first_o we_o undertake_v to_o prove_v a_o abolition_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n from_o the_o word_n and_o then_o propose_v the_o first_o day_n as_o bid_v fair_o of_o all_o the_o other_o weekday_n for_o it_o because_o we_o acknowledge_v one_o day_n of_o the_o seven_o to_o be_v the_o substance_n of_o the_o four_o commandment_n and_o to_o be_v positive_o and_o secondary_o moral_a in_o it_o and_o that_o therefore_o there_o lie_v still_o a_o obligation_n upon_o all_o the_o church_n unto_o the_o end_n of_o the_o world_n to_o keep_v one_o day_n in_o seven_o holy_a unto_o the_o lord_n at_o least_o all_o who_o may_v have_v the_o command_v entire_o convey_v to_o they_o and_o due_o teach_v they_o for_o there_o may_v be_v a_o case_n of_o exemption_n in_o this_o particular_a as_o we_o may_v see_v in_o the_o progress_n and_o we_o say_v the_o seven_o day_n be_v cashier_v the_o first_o day_n ought_v to_o be_v its_o successor_n and_o that_o because_o of_o the_o glorious_a privilege_n of_o this_o day_n above_o all_o other_o of_o the_o week_n whereof_o this_o of_o our_o lord_n resurrection_n from_o the_o dead_a be_v chief_a because_o this_o be_v the_o day_n of_o god_n the_o redeemer_n enter_v into_o his_o rest_n and_o our_o argument_n for_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v both_o a_o pari_fw-la &_o a_o majori_fw-la from_o equality_n and_o eminence_n equality_n with_o and_o eminency_n to_o the_o rest_n of_o god_n the_o creator_n upon_o the_o seven_o day_n for_o as_o the_o creator_n have_v finish_v the_o six_o day_n work_v and_o rest_v the_o seven_o be_v make_v a_o positive_a motive_n for_o the_o observance_n of_o that_o day_n for_o a_o religious_a rest_n during_o all_o the_o time_n that_o jehovah_n rest_v from_o no_o other_o more_o eminent_a work_n of_o he_o so_o we_o say_v in_o like_a manner_n the_o rest_n of_o god_n the_o redeemer_n from_o that_o his_o great_a work_n of_o redemption_n on_o the_o first_o day_n may_v be_v as_o good_a a_o motive_n for_o the_o consecrate_v thereof_o to_o a_o religious_a rest_n for_o here_o we_o suppose_v the_o seven_o day_n exclude_v yea_o we_o argue_v a_o fortiori_fw-la and_o say_v it_o may_v much_o more_o upon_o this_o account_n challenge_v its_o holy_a observation_n because_o 1._o the_o rest_n of_o jehovah_n after_o the_o work_n of_o the_o creation_n be_v no_o proper_a rest_n as_o have_v be_v prove_v but_o now_o his_o rest_n after_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n be_v a_o
