Exod. 32. 6. or recreations for our owne Pleasure for they are forbidden Isa 58. 13. Q. 75. There bee many arguments to prove the Commandement of the Sabboth to be morall which bee the first sixe of them A. First the Sabboth was delivered to Adam before the fall when there was no Ceremony Gen. 2. 2. which is not spoken by anticipation but the context sheweth it was then sanctified to him verse 3. Secondly Moses takes it for granted it was knowne to be morall and knowne before the Law was given Exod. 16. 25. Thirdly unlesse this be morall there cannot be ten Commandements for the Dutyes being commanded in the three former the time only here either this time must be morall or else there cannot be ten which is false Deut. 16. 4. Fourthly God would not put a cerimoniall law in the middest of the moralls and urge it with more words reasons repititions and particulars then any of the moralls as he doth the Sabboth Exod. 20. 8. 9 10 11. Fiftly Christ speaking of those dayes when all the cerimoniall law was dead and buried sheweth the Sabboth stands still Math. 24. 20. Sixtly the Prophet prophecying of the dayes of the Gospel when Christ the righteousnesse and salvation of God should be revealed Isa 56. 1. pronounceth a blessing on them in those times that keep the Sabboth from poluting of it verse 2. and putteth the keeping of the Sabboth for the whole obedience of the covenant ver 6. which he would not do if it were for obedience is better them sacrifice or ce●imony 1. Sam. 15. 22. Q. 76. Now because some object saying the Sabboth is not engraven in mens hearts neither is there any mention either before the flood or after that the fathers did keep it and so forth therefore tell me what arguements have you to prove it morall A. First if God had meant to out on Cerimony among the Lawes that were morall he would rather have put Sacrifice for that is more a dequat to all the ●●●imoniall saw Hos 6. 6. being a type of repentance Psal 50. 17. Thanks givings Psal 107. 22. Prayer Prov. 21. 27. Justice and Iudgement ver 3. all religion Pro. 15. 8. a full type of Christ Heb. 9. 14. Secondly the scripture sheweth not that nor Christ Mat. 5. 17. nor the law of faith doth disanull any thing of the law meaning directly the Decalogue Rom. 3. 31. Thirdly the Sabboth was intimated in Caine and Ables Publick serving of God Gen. 4. 3. 4. and in the publick calling on Gods name in the dayes of Enosh ver 26. and in Noahs waiting the fall of the waters by Sevens Gen. 8. 10. 12. who no question as he condemned the world by building the Ark on the weeke dayes Heb. 11. 7. So also by preaching o● the Sabboth for he was a Preacher 2. Pet. 2. 5. and in Abraham too who was a Prophet Gen. 20. 7. and had a great people to preach to Gen. 14 14. Fourthly the Sabboth is ingraven upon mans heart of which the ingraving upon Tables was a token Exod. 34. 28. and to shew the everlastingnesse of it it was written which none of the Cerimonies were in stone Deut. 4. 15. Fisthly when God speaking of the covenant of grace he saith he will write it againe in the minds of his redeemed Heb. 10. 16. even upon the fleshly tables of their hearts alluding to the materiall writing 2. Corin. 3. 3. Sixtly the very heathens had their Sephtamins their eights and the ninths still hovering about the holy seventh of the Decalogue the whole law being obscurely written in their hearts Romans 2. 15. Q. 77. The Sabboth was the last day of the Weeke how commeth it now to bee changed into the first day of the weeke A. This day the Lord hath made Psal 118. 24. For on this day Christ rose from the dead and rested from the worke of Redemption Math. 28. 1. Having created new heavens and a new earth Psal 65. 17. which we are to keepe by vertue of the fourth Commandement still for Christ telleth us hee is Lord of it Math. 12. 8. which is called sometimes from Priority of order and dignity the first day of the Weeke Acts 20. 7. Sometimes from the Author that did institute it the Lords day Rev. 1. 10. as wee see the Lords Supper is so called 1 Cor. 11. ●0 And though the Sabboth from the Crcation were from Even to even Levit. 23. 32. Dayes being so reckoned Gen. 1. 31. yet this Sabboth is to bee reckoned from Christs Resurrection and therefore is from Morning to morning Marke 16. 2. And albeit Mary Magdalen came while it was darkish and Christ was risen before that and so might seeme to have risen over night Job 20. 1. yet that could not bee the women and Peter and John would never have deferred their going to the Sepulcher till morning then as they did vers 2. Now howsoever this Day be circumstantially changed and Ceremonies removed yet the day stands still morall Acts 16. 13. The Commandement of not Killing had a ceremony a●next to it as the eating of the Flesh with the bloud Gen. 9. 4. 5. which now is changed Col. 2. 21. and yet the Commandement of not killing stands still Rom. 13. 9.
