A14653	The doctrine of the Sabbath Wherein the first institution of the vveekly Sabbath, with the time thereof, the nature of the law binding man to keep it, the true ground, and necessity of the first institution, and of the observation of it, on the severall day in the Old Testament, and also of the moving of it to the first day under the Gospel, are laid open and proved out of the Holy Scriptures. Also besides the speciall dueties necessarily required for the due sanctification thereof, those two profitable points are proved by demonstrations out of Gods Word. First, that the Lord Christ God and man, is the Lord of the Sabbath, on whom the Sabbath was first founded...2. That the faithfull under the Gospell are as necessarily bound to keep the weekly Sabbath of the Lords day... Deliverd in divers sermons by George Walker B. of Divinity and pastor of St. Iohn Evangelists Church in London.	Walker, George, 1581?-1651.	1638 (1638)	STC 24957; ESTC S103296	151,861	168

this_o that_o all_o god_n people_n do_v chief_o labour_v to_o stir_v up_o and_o quicken_v the_o grace_n of_o god_n in_o their_o heart_n and_o holy_a heavenly_a and_o supernatural_a ●_z in_o their_o

affection_n of_o heart_n and_o purity_n of_o spirit_n as_o outward_a visible_a sensible_a action_n and_o gesture_n of_o body_n but_o because_o the_o lord_n day_n be_v the_o most_o bless_a day_n of_o the_o wreak_n sanctified_a &_o set_v apart_o for_o the_o holy_a worship_n and_o immediate_a service_n of_o god_n and_o for_o public_a and_o private_a service_n devotion_n and_o religious_a duty_n only_o therefore_o we_o all_o ought_v to_o have_v as_o great_a care_n to_o furnish_v our_o soul_n with_o spiritual_a beauty_n of_o holiness_n more_o abundant_o &_o in_o great_a measure_n as_o we_o
