The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 27

Robert Sanderson, D.D., Bishop of Lincoln

Robert Sanderson, D.D., Bishop of Lincoln.

The following points ought to be taken as certain and granted amongst Christians:—1. That no part of the law delivered by Moses to the Jews doth bind Christians under the Gospel, as by virtue of that delivery; no, not the Ten Commandments themselves, but least of all the fourth, which all confess to be, at least in some part, ceremonial. 2. That the particular determination of the time to the seventh day of the week was ceremonial. And so the obligation of the Fourth Commandment in that respect, although it were juris Divini positivi to the Jew, yet it ceased, together with other legal ceremonies, since the publishing of the Gospel, and bindeth not Christian consciences.—A Sovereign Antidote against Sabbatarian Errors. London, 1636.
