22 He that keepeth the Sabbath in truth and in conscience, will continually walk uprightly1 in his calling all the week after; and on the contrary, he that is a careless profaner of the Sabbath, if his life be examined, he shall be found to be a loose liver, if he lie not in some notorious sin. Therefore if any man desire to walk in the commandments of God, let him labour in conscience to be a sanctifier of the holy Sabbath.

23 Many will be superstitious observers of their popish-holy-days, and strait keepers of their Easter-day, and then shall all business be done quickly, that all may go to Church: but the Lords day is of small account with them. Yet must we make every Sabbath day, an Easter-day, (that is) a day wherein we are to record the Resurrection of Christ, and all other mercies which God through him, hath showed on us, & on those days must we labour diligently to feel the fruit of them all.
