CHAPTER Twelfth.
Answer to the replyes made unto the former Argu∣ment.
1. First reply, the Sabbath being morall from the beginning of the world, the figure was accidentally annexed unto it.
2. Answer. The Sabbath was a legall figure, and no thing else.
3. Second reply. The Sabbath was never a figurative and Typi∣call signe, but only doctrinall, marking the straite communion betweene GOD, and those that are his, and is still such a signe.
4. Answer to this reply, by the distinction of signes, in those that are onely doctrinall and onely memoriall, or which besides are figurative or typicall.
5. Of which last sort was the Sabbath.
6. And therefore it was to be abrogated, as well as all other types and figures of the Law.
7. Which were all, not only typicall, but also doctrinall.
8. Why the signes of the Christian Church, are not figures & types.
9. Third reply, concerning the Raine-bow, which is a signe only, and no type at all, answered.
10. Some things yet subsisting, which were signes, figures and types under the Làw, may be yet lawfully used, but not as signes, fi∣gures, types.
11. For cleering of this, the types of the Law are distinguished in∣to those whose whole essence consisted in their typicall use, as the Circumcision, Passeover, sacrifices, &c.
12 And in those, which besides the type, may in the new Testament have some other good and religious use, as abstinence of certaine meats, observation of the first day of Moneths, of feasts, of Sabbaths, &c. but not as any part of Gods service, or through necessity of obedience to Gods Commandement.
