seven_o day_n after_o the_o creation_n and_o the_o strict_a observation_n of_o the_o day_n as_o that_o therein_o a_o man_n may_v not_o gather_v stick_n and_o have_v make_v himself_o a_o brand_n of_o hellfire_n if_o he_o have_v but_o make_v a_o fire_n these_o all_o agree_v to_o be_v alterable_a to_o be_v alter_v and_o at_o this_o day_n to_o bind_v none_o now_o that_o which_o they_o say_v be_v unalterable_a in_o the_o sabbath_n they_o affirm_v to_o be_v some_o certain_a time_n of_o worship_n &_o a_o solemnity_n careful_o religious_a and_o yet_o in_o this_o agreement_n they_o differ_v for_o some_o will_v have_v that_o time_n which_o be_v unalterable_a to_o be_v though_o not_o a_o certain_a yet_o one_o day_n of_o the_o seven_o though_o not_o monday_n or_o tuesday_n yet_o at_o least_o they_o or_o one_o between_o they_o which_o god_n or_o his_o church_n shall_v determine_v whilst_o other_o think_v that_o time_n to_o be_v no_o more_o bind_v to_o the_o week_n than_o it_o be_v to_o the_o saturday_n to_o any_o other_o time_n than_o it_o be_v to_o the_o jew_n sabbath_n and_o so_o likewise_o as_o touch_v the_o observation_n they_o vary_v the_o former_a prescribe_v a_o rise_n before_o day_n quick_a array_v private_a prayer_n till_o the_o minister_n be_v in_o the_o church_n repear_v and_o prayer_n after_o till_o he_o come_v thither_o again_o then_o hear_v a_o second_o sermon_n and_o then_o a_o three_o if_o they_o may_v and_o so_o have_v other_o form_n till_o midnight_n the_o other_o think_v that_o they_o have_v conscionable_o discharge_v their_o duty_n if_o without_o so_o many_o observance_n fit_a rather_o to_o tire_v the_o body_n than_o refresh_v the_o soul_n after_o their_o private_a devotion_n they_o religious_o frequent_v the_o public_a service_n of_o god_n which_o be_v end_v they_o believe_v they_o may_v as_o well_o bestow_v moderate_a recreation_n as_o temperate_a diet_n on_o their_o body_n but_o i_o will_v ask_v of_o the_o former_a sort_n of_o these_o when_o they_o say_v that_o somewhat_o be_v unalterable_a in_o the_o sabbath_n by_o who_o they_o mean_v it_o be_v unalterable_a if_o they_o say_v by_o man_n it_o be_v no_o great_a matter_n which_o they_o say_v all_o man_n know_v that_o what_o by_o god_n be_v establish_v must_v needs_o be_v unalterable_a by_o he_o to_o change_v another_o ordinance_n be_v the_o only_a privilege_n of_o a_o high_a power_n but_o if_o they_o say_v that_o it_o be_v by_o god_n unalterable_a i_o shall_v again_o ask_v whether_o it_o be_v simple_o unalterable_a or_o upon_o the_o presuppose_a approbation_n of_o his_o will_n and_o pleasure_n not_o the_o latter_a nothing_o in_o the_o sabbath_n be_v so_o unalterable_a if_o there_o be_v they_o must_v show_v it_o in_o the_o scripture_n if_o they_o shall_v reply_v that_o he_o have_v express_v his_o will_n in_o the_o four_o commandment_n which_o be_v place_v among_o the_o moral_a precept_n must_v needs_o have_v something_o moral_a in_o it_o and_o see_v that_o be_v not_o the_o seven_o day_n therefore_o at_o least_o it_o must_v be_v a_o seven_o which_o be_v moral_a i_o shall_v only_o desire_v they_o to_o review_v the_o commandment_n where_o we_o shall_v find_v that_o the_o jew_n be_v command_v to_o keep_v that_o day_n holy_a in_o which_o the_o lord_n rest_v nay_o therefore_o to_o keep_v it_o holy_a because_o in_o it_o the_o lord_n rest_v they_o be_v to_o hallow_v that_o day_n which_o the_o lord_n have_v hallow_v now_o in_o what_o day_n do_v he_o rest_v what_o day_n do_v he_o hallow_v be_v it_o not_o the_o seven_o day_n for_o in_o six_o day_n they_o be_v the_o word_n in_o the_o commandment_n the_o lord_n make_v heaven_n and_o earth_n and_o rest_v the_o seven_o day_n so_o that_o from_o hence_o they_o may_v prove_v the_o jew_n sabbath_n but_o they_o will_v destroy_v the_o lord_n day_n the_o seven_o day_n be_v establish_v by_o this_o commandment_n but_o it_o be_v a_o weak_a foundation_n for_o one_o in_o seven_o well_o then_o at_o length_n they_o be_v drive_v to_o this_o to_o affirm_v that_o there_o be_v some_o what_o in_o the_o sabbath_n to_o wit_n the_o necessity_n of_o sanctify_v one_o in_o seven_o which_o be_v simple_o and_o absolute_o unalterable_a but_o to_o omit_v that_o they_o but_o affirm_v and_o can_v prove_v this_o see_v what_o the_o consequence_n of_o this_o wouldbe_n if_o there_o be_v as_o much_o truth_n as_o there_o be_v the_o confidence_n in_o that_o assertion_n if_o it_o be_v simple_o unalterable_a than_o it_o be_v simple_o necessary_a that_o at_o first_o it_o shall_v be_v ordain_v then_o observe_v it_o it_o be_v then_o simple_o necessary_a that_o either_o upon_o saturday_n or_o sunday_n or_o some_o other_o one_o day_n in_o seven_o god_n shall_v ordain_v a_o sabbath_n but_o he_o can_v not_o ordain_v one_o in_o seven_o to_o be_v a_o sabbath_n unless_o he_o have_v first_o ordain_v that_o there_o shall_v be_v seven_o day_n so_o than_o it_o be_v simple_o necessary_a that_o there_o shall_v be_v seven_o day_n and_o because_o the_o sabbath_n be_v make_v for_o man_n therefore_o if_o there_o must_v of_o necessity_n be_v a_o sabbath_n of_o necessity_n there_o must_v be_v a_o man_n for_o who_o the_o sabbath_n shall_v be_v and_o since_o time_n be_v only_o the_o measure_n of_o the_o creature_n action_n therefore_o if_o time_n be_v by_o necessity_n as_o it_o must_v be_v if_o the_o sabbath_n be_v by_o the_o same_o necessity_n the_o creature_n must_v be_v who_o action_n be_v to_o be_v measure_v by_o time_n and_o thus_o we_o have_v learn_v a_o new_a and_o goodly_a divinity_n that_o whereas_o the_o ancient_a father_n affirm_v that_o deus_fw-la nihil_fw-la agit_fw-fr ad_fw-la extrà_fw-la necessariò_fw-la that_o god_n do_v nothing_o necessary_o but_o beget_v the_o son_n and_o breathe_v the_o holy_a ghost_n and_o that_o whatever_o he_o do_v outward_o he_o do_v free_o that_o be_v he_o may_v either_o do_v it_o or_o not_o do_v it_o these_o man_n opinion_n will_v cause_v he_o to_o make_v the_o world_n out_o of_o a_o necessity_n and_o that_o he_o can_v not_o possible_o do_v otherwise_o the_o sum_n of_o all_o be_v this_o that_o god_n make_v law_n for_o man_n not_o for_o himself_o he_o may_v have_v choose_v whether_o he_o will_v have_v make_v man_n and_o when_o he_o have_v make_v he_o whether_o he_o will_v make_v a_o sabbath_n for_o he_o that_o when_o ever_o you_o shall_v hear_v man_n lay_v stumble_a block_n in_o the_o way_n and_o make_v scruple_n when_o the_o sabbath_n begin_v and_o when_o it_o end_v and_o whether_o you_o may_v lawful_o dress_v or_o eat_v your_o meat_n that_o day_n you_o desire_v they_o to_o show_v you_o scripture_n for_o that_o which_o they_o require_v which_o if_o they_o can_v know_v you_o be_v not_o bind_v unto_o judaisme_n s._n peter_n acknowledge_v that_o you_o be_v free_a but_o be_v christian_n free_v from_o the_o ceremony_n of_o the_o law_n how_o can_v it_o be_v since_o a_o man_n be_v not_o say_v to_o be_v free_v from_o that_o under_o who_o bondage_n he_o never_o be_v and_o the_o christian_n especial_o such_o as_o spring_v from_o the_o gentile_n be_v never_o under_o those_o ordinance_n he_o show_v his_o word_n unto_o jaacob_n his_o statute_n and_o judgement_n unto_o israel_n ps._n 147._o 19_o beside_o as_o i_o show_v you_o before_o those_o ceremony_n be_v the_o partition_n wall_n between_o the_o jew_n and_o gentile_n now_o it_o can_v not_o have_v part_v have_v they_o both_o agree_v in_o it_o have_v it_o be_v give_v to_o the_o heathen_a also_o if_o then_o they_o be_v never_o under_o it_o how_o can_v it_o be_v proper_o say_v that_o they_o be_v free_a from_o it_o s._n austin_n have_v well_o satisfy_v this_o point_n discourse_v of_o a_o other_o argument_n where_o he_o say_v that_o this_o word_n free_v in_o scripture_n be_v not_o only_o take_v for_o a_o deliverance_n from_o some_o danger_n or_o burden_n which_o be_v past_a but_o sometime_o for_o a_o prevent_n of_o that_o to_o come_v he_o instance_v as_o i_o remember_v in_o that_o speech_n of_o david_n thou_o have_v deliver_v my_o soul_n out_o of_o the_o nethermost_a hell_n the_o nethermost_a hell_n be_v the_o hell_n of_o the_o damn_a and_o into_o that_o the_o soul_n of_o david_n of_o a_o penitent_a sinner_n never_o do_v never_o shall_v come_v to_o deliver_v out_o of_o hell_n therefore_o must_v be_v expound_v to_o hinder_v he_o lest_o he_o shall_v come_v thither_o here_o the_o prevent_v be_v the_o free_v and_o so_o likewise_o when_o we_o say_v that_o christian_n be_v free_v from_o the_o yoke_n of_o the_o ceremony_n we_o do_v not_o suppose_v that_o they_o ever_o be_v under_o they_o but_o that_o they_o never_o shall_v be_v under_o they_o that_o that_o hand-writing_n against_o they_o be_v for_o ever_o blot_v out_o but_o thus_o you_o will_v say_v even_o the_o heathen_a

general_a which_o all_o proceed_v from_o the_o depravation_n from_o the_o maliciousness_n of_o our_o nature_n or_o particular_o for_o that_o offence_n to_o who_o contrary_a duty_n he_o have_v before_o exhort_v even_o disobedience_n to_o the_o lawful_a magistrate_n but_o we_o be_v not_o so_o much_o to_o inquire_v what_o the_o word_n may_v signify_v in_o itself_o as_o what_o it_o must_v signify_v here_o and_o it_o can_v signify_v malice_n in_o the_o former_a sense_n not_o that_o it_o be_v lawful_a to_o use_v our_o liberty_n as_o a_o cloak_n even_o of_o that_o malice_n as_o to_o abstain_v from_o reprove_v our_o brother_n because_o we_o hate_v he_o as_o if_o it_o be_v a_o indifferent_a thing_n to_o reprove_v or_o no_o as_o if_o we_o perform_v it_o to_o our_o friend_n we_o do_v well_o but_o not_o ill_o if_o we_o do_v not_o perform_v it_o to_o our_o enemy_n even_o when_o we_o have_v just_a reason_n to_o suppose_v that_o such_o a_o reproof_n will_v amend_v he_o i_o say_v it_o be_v not_o lawful_a to_o use_v our_o liberty_n for_o a_o cloak_n of_o that_o malice_n but_o that_o be_v not_o the_o malice_n of_o which_o our_o apostle_n here_o speak_v for_o he_o speak_v of_o such_o a_o malice_n which_o be_v opposite_a to_o subjection_n now_o hatred_n and_o rancour_n be_v oppose_v ●o_o charity_n not_o to_o subjection_n and_o he_o that_o upon_o pretence_n of_o his_o liberty_n deny_v obedience_n to_o magistracy_n do_v it_o not_o out_o of_o malice_n because_o he_o hate_v he_o but_o out_o of_o injustice_n because_o he_o will_v not_o give_v he_o what_o be_v his_o due_n not_o fear_n to_o who_o fear_n nor_o honour_n to_o who_o honour_n appertain_v not_o to_o speak_v in_o the_o mean_a time_n that_o the_o word_n in_o the_o text_n be_v not_o malice_n but_o maliciousness_n between_o which_o there_o be_v a_o great_a difference_n it_o be_v then_o not_o so_o apt_o to_o be_v interpret_v of_o uncharitableness_n let_v we_o see_v in_o the_o next_o place_n whether_o it_o will_v sound_v better_o for_o sin_n in_o general_a they_o all_o proceed_v from_o maliciousness_n or_o corruption_n and_o we_o must_v not_o use_v our_o liberty_n to_o cloak_n this_o malice_n this_o indeed_o be_v think_v to_o be_v the_o meaning_n by_o the_o most_o &_o that_o not_o without_o good_a probability_n for_o a_o general_a reason_n may_v not_o unfit_o be_v use_v in_o a_o particular_a exhortation_n and_o the_o argument_n hold_v good_a we_o must_v not_o refuse_v subjection_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o liberty_n because_o universal_o we_o must_v not_o do_v any_o bad_a act_n by_o reason_n of_o our_o liberty_n but_o we_o must_v know_v that_o the_o word_n be_v 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d which_o signify_v evill-doing_a and_o be_v oppose_v to_o 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d 〈◊〉_d or_o well-doing_n in_o the_o former_a verse_n if_o therefore_o well_o do_v as_o i_o there_o prove_v must_v signify_v our_o obedience_n evill-doing_a or_o maliciousness_n must_v needs_o import_v our_o disobedience_n to_o government_n this_o you_o see_v be_v god_n account_n of_o rebellion_n of_o disobedience_n he_o call_v it_o maliciousness_n sin_n without_o any_o addition_n as_o if_o it_o be_v the_o only_a or_o at_o least_o the_o great_a sin_n and_o therefore_o no_o wonder_n if_o we_o must_v not_o use_v our_o liberty_n to_o cloak_n it_o the_o meaning_n of_o w_z ch_z phrase_n we_o be_v next_o to_o find_v out_o to_o use_v our_o liberty_n for_o a_o cloak_n of_o maliciousness_n in_o general_a be_v to_o pretend_v that_o those_o action_n be_v indifferent_a which_o indeed_o be_v unlawful_a and_o upon_o that_o pretence_n to_o practice_v they_o and_o it_o principal_o hold_v where_o the_o action_n that_o these_o will_v do_v be_v of_o itself_o indifferent_a or_o at_o least_o seem_v to_o be_v so_o and_o be_v only_o make_v unlawful_a by_o some_o circumstance_n for_o instance_n it_o be_v in_o itself_o indifferent_a whether_o i_o eat_v one_o or_o two_o meal_n in_o a_o day_n &_o that_o meal_n w_o ch_n i_o

no_o certain_o thou_o offend_v not_o the_o law_n if_o thou_o contemn_v not_o the_o lawmaker_n but_o thou_o do_v contemn_v he_o if_o thou_o do_v only_o urge_v thy_o liberty_n as_o a_o sufficient_a

do_v willing_o submit_v to_o his_o judgement_n thou_o sin_v not_o though_o thou_o do_v not_o what_o man_n command_v but_o this_o not_o by_o make_v thy_o liberty_n a_o cloak_n of_o thy_o
