That these things are the necessary Consequences of their Notion about their Sabbath, appears, because they go to Moses for it as the Law was in his hand, and believe many other things that were mere Judicial Laws to be in force now: They are for Moses's Law, with the Statutes and Judgments, and have declared that that Law is in force to stone to death such as break the Sabbath.

7. Is not that Error dangerous,1 and of an evil Nature, the necessary Consequence whereof renders all that keep not that precise Seventh-day as the Sabbath (nor can be convinced 'tis their Duty to observe it) to be guilty of Immorality, i. e. in breaking a moral Precept in the very Letter of it, nay one of the Precepts of the first Table? For it must be thus, if the morality of the fourth Commandment lies in the observation of the precise Seventh-day Sabbath; and it must be as great an Evil to violate it, as 'tis to have another God, or to bow down to a graven Image, or to swear or profane the holy Name of God, or commit actual Adultery, Murder, &c. and thus their Doctrine renders all true Christians to be guilty of a most gross Immorality, who do not observe the precise Seventh-day.
