I think Mr. Baxter in this case has said excellently well:1 Moral, saith he, signifieth that which by nature is universal and perpetually obligatory. He answers this Question, Do not Divines say the Decalogue written in Stone is the Moral Law, and of perpetual Obligation? Answ. Yes, for by moral they mean natural, and so take moral not in a large sense, as it signifies a Law de moribus, as all Laws be whatsoever; but in a narrower sense, as signifying that which by nature is of universal and perpetual Obligation.
