So then, that being the day of the Rest of the Son of God, it must needs be the day of the Rest of his Churches also. For God gave his resting day to his Church to be a Sabbath; and Christ rested from his own works as God did from his, therefore he also gave the day in which he rested from his Works, a Sabbath to the Churches, as did the Father.
