Ch. or §. Paul’s motives for the non-application of asceticism to the pleasures of
the table.
By Paul, asceticism as hath been /will be/ seen was employed /applied/ in the way of
interdiction of /to/ the pleasures of the bed. Bu the same Paul asceticism was not
employed /applied/ in the way of interdiction to the pleasures of the table. In this
there was no inconsistency; nothing in either instance /case/ but what was
subservient to his own worldly /grand/ purposes to his own ambitious schemes of
worldly dominion under the guise /cloak/ of spiritual service.
To this purpose it was still more necessary that in its application /in reference/
to the pleasures of the table asceticism should be excluded, than that in its
application /reference/ to the pleasures of the bed it should be applied
/proscribed/. To the purpose of his own selfish /self-regarding/ /personal/ ambition
still more essentially than to the purpose of the religion of Jesus it was material
/necessary/ that all faith in /all observance of/ the Mosaic law should be extinct:
necessary both as calling men[?] off in the character of a rival pursuit /object/
from that by /on/ the engaging them in which the success of his own scheme depended;
and as precluding his disciples if /while/ still hampered by that yoke from engaging
in that free and universal converse on which the encrease of their numbers
/opportunity of gaining converts/ materially depended.

Title: [1818 Feb 2 Not Paul III. Doctrine]Description: 1818 Feb 2 Not Paul III. Doctrine Ch. Motives to Doctrine Asceticism II. Bed I. Ordinary 1. Celibacy Shew how his successors improved upon this by Monkery. Cause of his apathy in this respect, inappetency the result of antecedent excess which must have come upon him early if it continued not after his conversion. Paul’s [...?] continues—I. Cor. 7. / vii. 7. 8./ all as myself. ib. ix. 27. my body under subjection. Ch. or §. 1. Paul’s Motives for the application of asceticism to the pleasures of the bed. For the ascertaining of the motives which produced application made by Paul /him/ of asceticism to the pleasures of the bed, no very deep research, no very extraordinary refinement /discernment/, nothing of that which by impostors and their dupes is so hated and calumniated under the name of philosophy is necessary. It stands declared by himself; it may be seen in his own words. I. Cor. vii. 32. Of the 7 th Chapter of the first of his two Epistles to his Corinthians, the whole of the matter has for its subject the pleasures of the bed reaped in the ordinary shape. in the 32 d of the 40 verses into which it stands divided, the object to which the whole of his doctrine was directed stands disclosed: ‘I would have you (says he) without carefulness;’ and again v. 35. ‘And this I speak .... that you may attend upon the Lord without distraction.’

Title: [1818 Feb y 2 Not Paul III.]Description: 1818 Feb y 2 Not Paul III. Doctrine Ch. Motives to Doctrine Asceticism I. Table Under the Mosaic law, to the pleasures of the table asceticism applied itself in two ways: by the main branch by the pretended interdiction of blood, it prevented /inhibited/ its votaries from being partakers at any table at which flesh of any kind, that of fish as well as fowl included, slaughtered in any other way or by any other hand that of an observer of the Mosaic law in that respect /particular/, was served up; by so many particular branches it interdicted as well at /not less at/ their own as /than/ at other tables the use of sundry kinds of flesh in no small variety, and amongst these several the loss of /abstinence from/ which would either on the account of sensual gratification, or on the account of economy /cheapness/ be no inconsiderable loss. (1) To fasting however—to a temporary abstinence from the pleasure, this [...?], to this abstinence—coupled with a proportionable and reasonable sufferance of the corresponding pains, he has not objection—to an exercise of this kind—provided it have a good object and a good probably issue he has no objection. Of this object and the care that belongs to it a view may be had under the next succeeding head. It is that the exercise may have had for its cause and have for its effect, those meditations of which he himself will be /have been/ the subject, and by which the purposes of his ambition will be served. For the purpose of this exercise we shall see him inviting the wife /wives/ to separate herself /themselves/ from her husband at bed as well as board.† † I. Cor. vii. [7.] MS ‘6.’ Defraud not one the other’ (i.e. husbands and wives in respect of conjugal rights) ‘except { it be} wuth consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer;’ Note (a) (1) Enumerate them.
