a_o express_a commandment_n to_o the_o jew_n to_o keep_v that_o sabbath_n in_o memory_n of_o the_o creation_n but_o there_o can_v be_v no_o commandment_n show_v we_o from_o christ_n or_o his_o apostle_n for_o we_o to_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o redemption_n wherefore_o we_o be_v not_o bind_v unto_o this_o new_a sabbath_n as_o they_o be_v unto_o the_o old_a sabbath_n for_o there_o be_v not_o the_o like_a reason_n this_o sophistry_n every_o man_n may_v see_v i_o come_v now_o to_o their_o reason_n they_o say_v the_o redemption_n be_v great_a than_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n hereunto_o i_o answer_v to_o know_v whither_o it_o be_v great_a or_o not_o will_v cost_v more_o labour_n than_o this_o their_o reason_n be_v worth_a wherefore_o for_o argument_n sake_n i_o suppose_v it_o be_v great_a but_o here_o i_o demand_v of_o they_o to_o who_o it_o be_v great_a whither_o it_o be_v great_a unto_o all_o man_n or_o but_o unto_o some_o man_n their_o answer_n will_v be_v that_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n be_v great_a unto_o the_o elect_a unto_o the_o redeem_a and_o to_o those_o only_o which_o have_v faith_n well_o then_o the_o redemption_n be_v neither_o great_a nor_o great_a nor_o any_o thing_n at_o all_o to_o those_o which_o be_v not_o elect_v not_o redeem_v and_o which_o live_v &_o die_v without_o faith_n of_o these_o ij_o sort_n of_o people_n the_o elect_a be_v the_o few_o number_n the_o unbeliever_n be_v the_o great_a number_n well_o then_o see_v how_o these_o thing_n hang_fw-mi together_o the_o thing_n they_o must_v prove_v be_v that_o we_o christian_n that_o be_v all_o we_o christian_n even_o every_o one_o within_o the_o pale_a of_o the_o church_n that_o be_v baptize_v all_o these_o aught_o to_o keep_v the_o lord_n day_n for_o a_o sabbath_n in_o memory_n of_o the_o redemption_n when_o as_o the_o one_o half_a of_o these_o be_v not_o redeem_v and_o their_o reason_n to_o bind_v all_o &_o every_o man_n thus_o to_o keep_v a_o remembrance_n of_o this_o redemption_n be_v because_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n be_v great_a unto_o some_o only_o of_o these_o man_n how_o absurd_a be_v this_o that_o every_o man_n shall_v be_v bind_v to_o keep_v a_o joyful_a memory_n of_o that_o thing_n which_o do_v belong_v but_o unto_o some_o of_o they_o only_o as_o not_o to_o the_o one_o half_a of_o they_o this_o be_v as_o if_o they_o will_v undertake_v to_o persuade_v not_o only_o english_a man_n but_o also_o dutch_a man_n &_o french_a man_n to_o keep_v a_o yearly_a joyful_a remembrance_n with_o we_o for_o our_o deliverance_n from_o the_o spaniard_n in_o 88_o why_o what_o have_v french_a &_o dutch_a to_o do_v with_o our_o deliverance_n in_o 88_o this_o concern_v not_o they_o it_o be_v not_o their_o deliverance_n so_o what_o have_v such_o to_o do_v to_o keep_v a_o joyful_a remembrance_n every_o lord_n day_n for_o the_o redemption_n when_o it_o belong_v not_o unto_o they_o they_o be_v unbeliever_n and_o such_o as_o love_v not_o the_o lord_n jesus_n wherefore_o they_o can_v press_v this_o their_o new_a sabbath_n of_o lord_n day_n by_o this_o their_o reason_n upon_o any_o but_o upon_o such_o as_o they_o see_v by_o their_o fruit_n do_v already_o believe_v such_o as_o do_v not_o yet_o believe_v which_o common_o be_v the_o great_a number_n these_o be_v not_o tie_v unto_o the_o keep_n of_o this_o lord_n day_n behold_v what_o a_o sabbath_n they_o have_v then_o to_o wit_n such_o a_o one_o as_o only_o the_o few_o number_n of_o the_o church_n &_o parish_n be_v tie_v to_o keep_v it_o as_o for_o the_o great_a number_n of_o our_o city_n town_n &_o parish_n these_o be_v not_o bind_v to_o keep_v it_o this_o their_o reason_n therefore_o do_v bewray_v the_o idleness_n of_o the_o cause_n for_o we_o must_v have_v such_o a_o sabbath_n as_o the_o reason_n of_o it_o do_v belong_v unto_o all_o and_o to_o every_o man_n none_o except_v and_o such_o be_v the_o saturday_n sabbath_n which_o be_v to_o be_v keep_v in_o memory_n of_o the_o creation_n now_o all_o &_o every_o man_n have_v a_o benefit_n by_o the_o creation_n and_o therefore_o all_o be_v bind_v to_o it_o none_o except_v but_o it_o be_v not_o so_o with_o the_o sunday_n sabbath_n for_o a_o few_o only_o have_v reason_n to_o keep_v it_o yet_o further_o to_o discover_v the_o vanity_n of_o this_o argument_n since_o they_o will_v have_v we_o keep_v a_o sabbath_n in_o remembrance_n of_o the_o redemption_n i_o demand_v of_o they_o how_o often_o they_o will_v have_v we_o keep_v a_o sabbaah_o in_o memory_n of_o the_o repemption_n once_o every_o seven_o day_n oft_o or_o seldomer_n they_o will_v answer_v once_o every_o seven_o day_n why_o say_v i_o that_o be_v jewish_a and_o savour_v of_o judaisme_n to_o observe_v a_o seven_o day_n this_o they_o have_v learn_v from_o the_o jewish_a sabbath_n wherefore_o since_o they_o do_v so_o abhor_v judaisme_n &_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n why_o do_v they_o imitate_v the_o jew_n herein_o and_o the_o seven_o day_n sabbath_n by_o choose_v a_o seven_o day_n the_o seven_o day_n be_v in_o imitation_n of_o god_n rest_n on_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o in_o memory_n of_o the_o world_n creation_n finish_v at_o the_o seven_o day_n but_o we_o be_v christian_n and_o as_o they_o say_v all_o thing_n be_v become_v new_a old_a thing_n be_v pass_v away_o well_o then_o we_o must_v now_o imitate_v christ_n the_o redeemer_n as_o the_o jew_n do_v god_n the_o creator_n and_o we_o must_v fetch_v light_n from_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n to_o know_v how_o often_o to_o keep_v our_o new_a sabbath_n as_o the_o jew_n do_v by_o god_n direction_n from_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n if_o then_o we_o must_v imitate_v christ_n the_o redeemer_n as_o do_v the_o jew_n god_n the_o creator_n then_o must_v we_o travail_v too_o &_o fro_o upon_o the_o lord_n day_n for_o so_o do_v christ_n himself_o 2._o if_o we_o must_v fetch_v light_a how_o often_o to_o keep_v our_o new_a sabbath_n from_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n as_o the_o jew_n do_v from_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n then_o must_v we_o since_o all_o thing_n be_v become_v new_a take_v up_o a_o new_a account_n of_o time_n also_o we_o must_v no_o long_o regard_v a_o seven_o day_n but_o now_o we_o must_v regard_v the_o three_o day_n for_o as_o god_n be_v six_o day_n in_o the_o work_n of_o creation_n &_o rest_v the_o seven_o so_o christ_n be_v three_o day_n in_o the_o work_n of_o redemption_n &_o rose_n &_o rest_v the_o three_o day_n on_o good_a friday_n he_o suffer_v upon_o the_o cross_n on_o saturday_n &_o on_o a_o part_n of_o the_o lord_n day_n he_o lay_v in_o the_o grave_n so_o you_o see_v the_o work_n of_o redemption_n cost_n christ_n 3_o day_n work_n wherefore_o if_o they_o will_v imitate_v christ_n they_o must_v keep_v every_o three_o day_n for_o a_o lord_n day_n &_o for_o a_o new_a sabbath_n &_o so_o they_o shall_v keep_v two_o sabbath_n in_o a_o week_n or_o thereabouts_o &_o if_o they_o do_v not_o thus_o they_o may_v talk_v what_o they_o will_v that_o all_o thing_n be_v become_v new_a &_o that_o as_o the_o jew_n keep_v a_o sabbath_n in_o imitation_n of_o god_n at_o the_o creation_n so_o we_o in_o imitation_n of_o christ_n in_o the_o redemption_n but_o where_o be_v their_o imitation_n of_o christ_n do_v they_o travail_v too_o &_o fro_o &_o follow_v their_o calling_n on_o the_o lord_n day_n as_o christ_n do_v &_o do_v they_o keep_v every_o three_o day_n a_o lord_n day_n and_o sabbath_n day_n as_o christ_n rise_v upon_o the_o three_o day_n no_o such_o matter_n furthermore_o whereas_o they_o suppose_v that_o we_o have_v as_o great_a need_n of_o a_o sabbath_n to_o keep_v a_o memory_n of_o the_o redemption_n as_o the_o jew_n have_v of_o a_o sabbath_n to_o keep_v in_o memory_n the_o creation_n i_o deny_v it_o for_o god_n have_v give_v the_o jew_n the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o it_o alone_o to_o keep_v in_o memory_n his_o creation_n &_o therefore_o it_o be_v necessary_a because_o they_o have_v no_o other_o help_n but_o for_o we_o &_o for_o the_o redemption_n we_o have_v two_o sacrament_n baptism_n &_o the_o lord_n supper_n to_o keep_v in_o memory_n the_o redemption_n &_o these_o be_v help_n enough_o so_o as_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n of_o a_o sabbath_n day_n also_o for_o the_o same_o end_n do_v this_o in_o remembrance_n of_o i_o so_o hereby_o then_o the_o

the_o author_n of_o these_o word_n who_o be_v christ_n who_o be_v a_o physician_n for_o the_o soul_n &_o all_o his_o doctrine_n tend_v to_o the_o furtherance_n of_o the_o kingdom_n of_o god_n

which_o be_v a_o religiouse_a respect_n nay_o how_o can_v it_o enter_v into_o any_o man_n head_n to_o think_v that_o christ_n shall_v command_v they_o to_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v not_o fly_v on_o

sabbath_n for_o the_o yet_o further_o clear_n of_o this_o point_n let_v it_o be_v note_v 1._o what_o be_v comprise_v in_o this_o word_n flight_n suppose_v christ_n have_v foreteld_v they_o that_o over_o a_o few_o year_n such_o a_o house_n shall_v be_v on_o fire_n in_o one_o of_o the_o seven_o day_n and_o have_v also_o bid_v they_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v put_v to_o quench_v the_o

here_o for_o this_o end_n consider_v that_o this_o be_v such_o a_o flight_n as_o be_v make_v out_o of_o a_o city_n by_o the_o inhabitant_n when_o the_o enemy_n have_v besiege_v it_o with_o soldier_n as_o you_o may_v see_v luk._n 21.20.21_o now_o when_o the_o besiege_a &_o distress_a citizen_n fly_v out_o from_o the_o violence_n of_o their_o enemy_n they_o usual_o carry_v out_o with_o they_o whatsoever_o thing_n of_o worth_n they_o have_v in_o the_o city_n even_o as_o much_o as_o possible_a they_o can_v as_o their_o young_a infant_n and_o child_n their_o best_a apparel_n and_o other_o

of_o the_o body_n by_o fly_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n thus_o much_o be_v comprise_v in_o the_o word_n flight_n so_o that_o when_o our_o saviour_n bid_v they_o pray_v against_o flight_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n it_o be_v all_o one_o as_o if_o he_o have_v bid_v they_o pray_v that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v drive_v to_o carry_v burden_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n and_o that_o they_o may_v not_o be_v put_v to_o laboriouse_a and_o painful_a travail_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n 2._o let_v it_o be_v note_v that_o to_o bear_v burden_n and_o to_o travail_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n be_v ever_o account_v for_o breach_n of_o the_o four_o come_v and_o for_o profanation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o you_o may_v read_v plain_o in_o nehem._n 13.15.17_o for_o nehemiah_n reprove_v the_o ruler_n for_o bear_v of_o burden_n on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n say_v what_o evil_a be_v this_o that_o you_o do_v &_o profane_a the_o sabbath_n day_n see_v also_o joh._n 5.10_o exod._n 16.29_o whereby_o you_o

the_o word_n profane_v signify_v but_o to_o make_v a_o thing_n common_a &_o what_o do_v they_o else_o by_o flight_n on_o the_o sabbath_n but_o make_v it_o a_o common_a day_n to_o wit_n a_o travail_a &_o a_o labour_a day_n the_o will_n of_o christ_n doubtless_o be_v none_o other_o than_o the_o will_n of_o god_n in_o the_o four_o come_v that_o be_v that_o his_o disciple_n shall_v be_v careful_a

on_o it_o in_o a_o case_n of_o necessity_n and_o to_o fly_v to_o save_v a_o man_n life_n as_o they_o do_v who_o be_v besiege_v etc._n etc._n hereunto_o i_o answer_v yis_o it_o be_v a_o profanation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n for_o what_o be_v it_o to_o profane_v a_o holy_a thing_n but_o to_o convert_v it_o unto_o common_a use_n &_o be_v it_o man_n travail_v to_o save_v their_o life_n yet_o since_o travail_v &_o labour_v be_v common_a work_n by_o travail_v and_o labour_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n as_o they_o do_v on_o common_a day_n they_o make_v the_o sabbath_n day_n a_o common_a day_n and_o so_o profane_a it_o neither_o will_v it_o follow_v that_o because_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n to_o travail_v on_o the_o sabbath_n in_o a_o case_n of_o necessity_n therefore_o it_o be_v no_o profanation_n of_o the_o sabbath_n for_o god_n have_v permit_v we_o to_o profane_v &_o make_v common_a the_o sabbath_n in_o a_o case_n of_o necessity_n and_o so_o profanation_n of_o it_o be_v no_o sin_n as_o otherwise_o it_o will_v have_v be_v the_o profanation_n remain_v still_o but_o it_o be_v no_o sinful_a profanation_n 2._o the_o consideration_n of_o this_o objection_n do_v strengthen_v my_o argument_n for_o if_o our_o saviour_n will_v not_o have_v man_n to_o fly_v &_o travail_v &_o work_v on_o the_o sabbath_n day_n no_o not_o to_o save_v their_o life_n if_o possible_o by_o mean_n of_o prayer_n they_o may_v avoid_v it_o much_o less_o will_v he_o have_v man_n do_v any_o work_n on_o the_o sabbath_n when_o there_o be_v no_o necessity_n and_o in_o a_o common_a case_n it_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o christ_n be_v marvellous_o zealouse_a of_o his_o father_n sabbath_n to_o have_v they_o religious_o &_o careful_o sanctify_v after_o his_o death_n when_o he_o

some_o other_o of_o the_o apostle_n do_v so_o it_o be_v sufficient_a to_o bind_v we_o to_o do_v the_o like_a &_o why_o then_o shall_v we_o not_o be_v follower_n of_o they_o in_o this_o case_n also_o keep_v that_o day_n for_o our_o sabbath_n which_o they_o keep_v &_o constant_o keep_v also_o as_o for_o the_o other_o 2_o branch_n of_o my_o major_n they_o can_v be_v deny_v unless_o man_n dare_v censure_v those_o pure_a and_o primitive_a church_n which_o live_v next_o after_o the_o apostle_n as_o if_o they_o shall_v live_v in_o a_o error_n of_o practice_n 300_o or_o 400_o year_n together_o
