The divine appointment of the Lords day proved as a separated day for holy worship, especially in the church assemblies, and consequently the cessation of the seventh day Sabbath : written for the satisfaction of some religious persons who are lately drawn into error or doubting in both these points / by Richard Baxter.

But that you may see more of this, you may Read Bede's mind that lived in England in other of his Works. On Act 20. [In una Sabbathi eum convenissemus ad fraugendum p•nem; id est, ⟨p. 178⟩Die Dominico qui est primus a Sabbate, cum ad mysteria celebrandae Congreg•ti essemus;] that is, [On the Lords day, which is the first from the Sabbath, when we were Congregated to Celebrate the Mysteries]—And he thinks it called, The Lords day, because it is the Remembrance of the Lords Resurrection or ours.

And on Luc. 6. fol. 78. he saith [The observation of the Legal Sabbath, ought of it self to cease, and the natural liberty of a Sabbath to be restored, which till Moses time was like other days. That as it is not circumcision or the Ceremonies of the Law that save the Church but the faith of Abraham working by Love, by which being uncircumcised he was justified, so he calleth the second Sabbath after the first, no other but the spiritual Sabbath, in which as on other days, it is lawful to do any profitable work, for distinction from the Jewish Sabbath, in which it was not lawful to travel, to gather Wood, nor to do other needful things] Pardon his Error about that word; I only cite it for the historical use.
