ado_n and_o such_o a_o stir_n and_o such_o a_o deal_n of_o opposition_n this_o be_v a_o plain_a sign_n that_o it_o be_v not_o of_o man_n it_o be_v not_o of_o he_o that_o will_v nor_o of_o he_o that_o

the_o soul_n that_o it_o may_v conceive_v in_o the_o soul_n power_n second_o the_o lord_n do_v it_o by_o a_o unspeakable_a work_n there_o be_v a_o divine_a work_n which_o the_o lord_n work_v the_o

that_o be_v unless_o he_o be_v bear_v of_o the_o spirit_n which_o work_v in_o the_o spirit_n of_o a_o man_n as_o water_n do_v in_o work_v upon_o a_o foul_a thing_n now_o what_o this_o work_n be_v we_o can_v tell_v but_o we_o can_v tell_v you_o the_o effect_n of_o it_o whereas_o the_o soul_n be_v rot_v and_o naught_o before_o and_o impotent_a to_o all_o good_a now_o it_o begin_v to_o have_v a_o

be_v a_o secret_a kind_n of_o work_v in_o the_o soul_n therefore_o it_o be_v call_v the_o wash_n and_o the_o laver_n of_o it_o and_o the_o apostle_n speak_v of_o the_o corinthian_n what_o miserable_a

to_o be_v bring_v forth_o thus_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n work_v this_o work_n he_o work_v it_o in_o a_o ineffable_a manner_n by_o the_o word_n of_o life_n and_o by_o a_o secret_a kind_n of_o wash_v etc._n i_o come_v now_o to_o the_o application_n of_o this_o point_n and_o first_o of_o all_o if_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n be_v the_o regenerater_n of_o god_n people_n ●hen_o we_o may_v here_o see_v the_o error_n of_o the_o papist_n pelagian_n and_o other_o that_o set_v up_o the_o will_n of_o man_n and_o put_v any_o activity_n in_o the_o reason_n and_o judgement_n and_o wisdom_n and_o election_n of_o man_n this_o doctrine_n of_o they_o be_v unsound_a and_o contrary_a to_o the_o work_n of_o god_n holy_a spirit_n if_o it_o be_v such_o a_o work_n as_o god_n send_v his_o own_o spirit_n to_o do_v it_o what_o man_n can_v do_v it_o it_o be_v call_v regeneration_n and_o this_o show_v it_o be_v not_o of_o man_n who_o be_v able_a to_o beget_v himself_o and_o shape_n himself_o in_o the_o womb_n and_o dispose_v of_o his_o own_o body_n in_o the_o belly_n nay_o more_o can_v any_o man_n beget_v himself_o again_o the_o very_a name_n of_o again_o show_v that_o it_o be_v a_o work_n only_o of_o god_n none_o but_o he_o can_v do_v it_o and_o we_o see_v it_o plain_o it_o be_v wrought_v no_o where_o but_o where_o god_n himself_o do_v it_o and_o they_o that_o have_v it_o be_v able_a to_o speak_v it_o that_o they_o do_v not_o choose_v god_n but_o god_n choose_v they_o i_o be_v find_v of_o they_o that_o seek_v i_o not_o all_o the_o soul_n of_o his_o people_n will_v subscribe_v that_o it_o be_v not_o in_o they_o that_o will_v or_o in_o they_o that_o run_v but_o in_o god_n that_o show_v mercy_n it_o be_v god_n only_o that_o be_v the_o author_n of_o this_o thing_n and_o none_o but_o he_o second_o again_o spirit_n this_o shall_v teach_v we_o to_o consider_v that_o we_o have_v always_o need_v of_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n if_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n have_v beget_v we_o again_o than_o we_o have_v always_o need_v of_o he_o it_o be_v not_o in_o this_o as_o in_o the_o first_o birth_n when_o the_o child_n be_v bear_v though_o the_o father_n be_v go_v the_o child_n may_v subsist_v but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o here_o but_o the_o spirit_n of_o god_n as_o he_o beget_v a_o man_n so_o he_o be_v fain_o always_o to_o stand_v by_o he_o and_o bear_v he_o up_o and_o give_v he_o supply_n of_o grace_n from_o day_n to_o day_n as_o it_o be_v with_o the_o air_n the_o sun_n do_v not_o only_o enlighten_v it_o but_o it_o do_v every_o moment_n give_v light_a to_o it_o for_o suppose_v the_o sun_n shall_v shine_v four_o or_o five_o hour_n in_o the_o day_n yet_o if_o the_o sun_n shall_v withhold_v its_o light_n the_o air_n will_v be_v dark_a present_o it_o be_v not_o as_o it_o be_v with_o fire_n let_v a_o man_n heat_n the_o water_n though_o he_o take_v away_o the_o fire_n the_o water_n will_v keep_v its_o heat_n a_o while_n after_o but_o do_v but_o withhold_v the_o

now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o dead_a time_n of_o popery_n if_o ever_o the_o sabbath_n be_v out_o of_o memory_n and_o out_o of_o date_n than_o be_v the_o time_n for_o then_o there_o be_v a_o great_a fall_v away_o a_o great_a forsake_v a_o great_a decline_a and_o people_n hearken_v to_o doctrine_n of_o devil_n and_o damnable_a heresy_n and_o the_o whole_a world_n groan_v under_o popery_n yet_o in_o the_o dead_a time_n of_o popery_n there_o be_v abundance_n of_o prophet_n the_o lord_n do_v keep_v their_o judgement_n entire_a in_o this_o thing_n as_o gregory_n and_o silvester_n and_o other_o though_o they_o be_v superstitious_a papist_n yet_o they_o say_v that_o the_o change_n of_o the_o sabbath_n from_o the_o last_o day_n of_o the_o week_n to_o the_o first_o be_v by_o divine_a institution_n now_o to_o come_v to_o the_o time_n of_o reformation_n here_o we_o have_v abundance_n of_o reverend_a man_n beyond_o the_o sea_n both_o in_o germany_n and_o france_n that_o maintain_v it_o be_v by_o divine_a institution_n another_o argument_n be_v take_v from_o the_o judgement_n of_o god_n if_o man_n will_v not_o reas_n 8_o harken_v to_o reason_n and_o the_o example_n of_o the_o saint_n and_o judgement_n of_o divine_n in_o all_o age_n yet_o the_o lord_n will_v make_v it_o appear_v from_o heaven_n that_o this_o be_v the_o lord_n day_n and_o the_o lord_n have_v seal_v it_o first_o by_o his_o judgement_n for_o the_o wrath_n of_o god_n have_v be_v reveal_v from_o heaven_n upon_o those_o that_o have_v profane_v this_o day_n the_o story_n in_o all_o age_n show_v it_o in_o the_o council_n of_o paris_n where_o divine_v out_o of_o all_o country_n in_o christendom_n be_v meet_v together_o to_o consult_v about_o matter_n of_o religion_n minister_n step_v up_o and_o make_v complaint_n concernine_v the_o sabbath_n let_v we_o make_v a_o canon_n for_o the_o sanctify_a of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n for_o to_o our_o knowledge_n the_o lord_n wrath_n have_v break_v out_o upon_o the_o country_n for_o the_o breach_n of_o this_o day_n and_o one_o relate_v one_o story_n and_o another_o another_o as_o one_o tell_v a_o story_n of_o a_o miller_n that_o grind_v upon_o the_o

of_o a_o nobleman_n that_o use_v to_o hunt_n upon_o the_o sabbath_n day_n the_o lord_n bring_v it_o so_o to_o pass_v that_o his_o wife_n bring_v forth_o a_o child_n with_o a_o head_n just_a like_o a_o dog_n i_o can_v relate_v abundance_n of_o story_n beyond_o sea_n but_o we_o have_v enough_o here_o at_o home_n the_o town_n of_o stratford_n in_o warwick_n shire_n at_o it_o be_v relate_v in_o the_o practice_n of_o piety_n be_v burn_v three_o time_n upon_o this_o day_n and_o the_o story_n of_o the_o paris_n garden_n 1583._o they_o be_v gather_v together_o this_o day_n to_o see_v the_o sport_n of_o the_o beast_n fight_v together_o and_o the_o scaffold_n fall_v down_o and_o eight_o be_v slay_v and_o abundance_n hurt_v so_o there_o be_v many_o more_o such_o example_n i_o remember_v myself_o above_o a_o dozen_o within_o this_o half_a year_n the_o lord_n have_v reveal_v his_o displeasure_n from_o heaven_n for_o the_o breach_n of_o this_o day_n second_o again_o the_o lord_n have_v seal_v this_o in_o the_o conscience_n of_o his_o people_n for_o who_o be_v they_o that_o break_v this_o day_n but_o lose_v and_o vain_a and_o profane_a man_n and_o who_o make_v conscience_n of_o it_o but_o those_o that_o most_o fear_v god_n those_o that_o god_n have_v most_o crown_v with_o righteousness_n and_o sanctification_n they_o delight_n in_o this_o and_o sanctify_v it_o and_o count_v it_o holy_a to_o the_o lord_n and_o the_o more_o a_o man_n fear_v god_n the_o more_o careful_a he_o be_v of_o the_o keep_n of_o this_o day_n and_o the_o more_o he_o be_v grieve_v to_o see_v it_o profane_v either_o by_o himself_o or_o other_o because_o he_o have_v experience_n of_o the_o blessing_n of_o god_n upon_o the_o keep_n of_o this_o day_n no_o man_n do_v sanctify_v this_o day_n conscionable_o but_o he_o shall_v find_v a_o blessing_n therefore_o it_o be_v sure_o from_o the_o lord_n use_v 1_o the_o first_o use_n be_v this_o be_v the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n the_o sabbath_n by_o divine_a institution_n then_o here_o we_o see_v that_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n the_o devil_n if_o he_o can_v make_v man_n keep_v no_o day_n than_o it_o be_v his_o policy_n to_o make_v they_o keep_v it_o by_o half_n oh_o say_v they_o do_v we_o not_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n do_v we_o not_o come_v to_o church_n and_o hear_v the_o word_n and_o divine_a service_n morning_n and_o evening_n be_v not_o this_o to_o keep_v the_o sabbath_n but_o if_o the_o lord_n have_v institute_v this_o day_n then_o certain_o he_o have_v institute_v a_o whole_a day_n it_o be_v madness_n and_o want_v of_o reason_n for_o a_o man_n to_o think_v the_o contrary_n suppose_v i_o hire_v a_o man_n to_o labour_n with_o i_o for_o a_o day_n do_v i_o not_o make_v account_n he_o shall_v work_v one_o whole_a day_n suppose_v i_o hire_v a_o servant_n for_o a_o year_n do_v i_o not_o mean_v a_o whole_a year_n though_o i_o put_v not_o in_o the_o word_n whole_a yet_o i_o suppose_v he_o must_v dwell_v a_o whole_a year_n with_o i_o and_o if_o i_o hire_v a_o man_n for_o a_o day_n it_o be_v for_o a_o whole_a day_n so_o that_o in_o grammatical_a sense_n when_o the_o scripture_n say_v thou_o shall_v sanctify_v the_o sabbath_n day_n it_o be_v mean_v a_o whole_a day_n it_o be_v not_o in_o this_o as_o in_o other_o word_n any_o piece_n of_o a_o stone_n be_v stone_n but_o in_o thing_n that_o signify_v the_o whole_a it_o be_v not_o the_o same_o as_o a_o day_n a_o part_n of_o a_o day_n be_v not_o a_o day_n the_o least_o part_n of_o water_n be_v water_n or_o of_o fire_n be_v fire_n but_o a_o part_n of_o a_o day_n be_v not_o a_o day_n remember_v thou_o keep_v holy_a the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o i_o be_v in_o the_o spirit_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n and_o they_o meet_v together_o on_o the_o first_o day_n of_o the_o week_n it_o be_v a_o day_n therefore_o the_o meaning_n of_o the_o scripture_n be_v that_o it_o shall_v be_v a_o whole_a day_n and_o it_o be_v so_o in_o reason_n and_o therefore_o we_o be_v to_o keep_v a_o whole_a day_n therefore_o we_o shall_v not_o curtail_v the_o lord_n day_n as_o the_o servant_n of_o hanun_n do_v the_o garment_n of_o david_n servant_n you_o know_v what_o become_v of_o ananias_n and_o saphira_n that_o bring_v but_o part_n when_o they_o shall_v have_v bring_v the_o whole_a they_o shall_v have_v bring_v the_o whole_a price_n of_o their_o inheritance_n but_o they_o bring_v but_o part_n therefore_o the_o lord_n smite_v they_o with_o death_n so_o when_o the_o lord_n require_v a_o whole_a day_n and_o we_o give_v he_o but_o a_o part_n we_o shall_v bring_v vengeance_n upon_o our_o own_o head_n there_o be_v divers_a argument_n for_o it_o first_o the_o week_n consist_v of_o seven_o day_n and_o he_o have_v give_v six_o to_o we_o and_o reserve_v one_o day_n to_o himself_o now_o we_o will_v grant_v that_o we_o have_v not_o part_v of_o six_o day_n but_o six_o whole_a day_n if_o you_o ask_v a_o man_n what_o do_v you_o work_v all_o day_n why_o yea_o the_o lord_n have_v give_v we_o six_o day_n therefore_o six_o whole_a day_n now_o by_o the_o same_o reason_n god_n must_v have_v a_o whole_a day_n if_o we_o take_v any_o part_n of_o the_o seven_o day_n than_o we_o have_v more_o than_o six_o day_n which_o be_v contrary_a to_o the_o scripture_n another_o reason_n be_v this_o god_n rest_v the_o seven_o day_n now_o look_v what_o time_n god_n rest_v that_o time_n we_o must_v sanctify_v now_o god_n rest_v the_o seven_o day_n all_o of_o it_o he_o leave_v none_o of_o the_o creation_n to_o do_v upon_o the_o seven_o day_n he_o have_v finish_v the_o creation_n in_o six_o day_n and_o rest_v all_o the_o seven_o day_n therefore_o we_o must_v keep_v the_o whole_a day_n three_o because_o this_o be_v the_o nature_n of_o a_o sabbath_n to_o be_v 24_o hour_n not_o to_o be_v a_o artificial_a day_n but_o to_o be_v a_o natural_a day_n 24_o hour_n together_o as_o you_o may_v see_v leu._n 23.32_o you_o shall_v keep_v the_o sabbath_n from_o evening_n to_o evening_n then_o the_o day_n be_v reckon_v from_o evening_n to_o evening_n from_o the_o creation_n
