Let no man therfore trouble youre conscience about meate and drynke or for a piece of an holy daye, or of the newe Moone, or of the sabboth dayes which are shadowes of thin∣ges to come: but the bodye is in Christ.
Feare not, least for disp••syng the ceremonies of Moses lawe any man condempne you, either for meate or drynke, be it cleane or vncleane, or for not puttyng a difference betwixt holye daye and workyng daye, or for not kepyng holy the feaste of the newe Moone, or for breakyng the reste of the Sabboth daye. For thiese obseruaunces were shadowes long before sig∣nifieng and rudely purtrahing such thynges, as shoulde afterwarde vn∣faynedly* 1.1 be exhibite by Christe. Wherfore synce we haue nowe the bodye selfe and since we haue the very trouth selfe openly shewed vnto vs, why should we any longer feare shadowes? Whoso cleaueth to Christe beyng now in heauen regardeth nothyng els but heauenly thinges, but walketh furth euen the ryght pathwaye to the rewarde of immortall lyfe.
