The Whole Treatise of the Cases of Conscience
The whole treatise of the cases of conscience distinguished into three books: the first whereof is revised and corrected in sundry places, and the other two annexed. Taught and delivered by M. W. Perkins in his holy-day lectures, carefully examined by his own briefs, and now published together for the common good, by T. Pickering Bachelor of Divinity. Whereunto is adjoined a twofold table: one of the heads and number of the questions propounded and resolved; another of the principal texts of Scripture which are either explained, or vindicated from corrupt interpretation.The whole treatise of the cases of conscience distinguished into three bookes: the first whereof is revised and corrected in sundrie places, and the other two annexed.

Sect. 3.
Now, before I come to the next, let us in 1the mean while see and examine the Reasons, that are brought against the answer presently made. First therefore it is alleged, that in the new Testament there is no difference of days. For if we have or make difference of days, we are in truth no better then Jews. That there is no distinction of days, they prove out of two places. The first is, Col. 2. 16. where the Apostle says, Let no man condemn you in respect of an holy day, or of the new moon, or of the Sabbath day. The second, Gal. 4. 10. where the same Apostle reproves the Galatians, for observing days, and months, and times, and years.
