And it is now the Rule of our Obedience, not merely to God as Creator, but to God in Christ bringing us into a new Relation to himself, in the Renovation of the Image of God in our Souls, and the transferring over of the Moral Law as a Rule, accompanied with new Principles, Motives and Ends.
And now observe, all the Rests of God are founded in his own Rest in his Works; for a pledge hereof a day of Rest must be given and observed—But as the Apostle tells in another case,1 The Priesthood being changed, 2there must also of necessity be a change of the Law—so the Covenant being changed, and the Rest which was the end of it, being changed; and ⟨p. 203⟩the way of entering into the Rest of God, being changed; a change of the Day must of necessity thereon ensue.
