forasmuch_o as_o they_o make_v a_o part_n of_o the_o theology_n of_o the_o jesuit_n i_o do_v not_o think_v it_o a_o wander_a from_o my_o subject_n to_o give_v you_o here_o a_o short_a account_n of_o they_o the_o first_o principle_n of_o molina_n be_v that_o the_o general_a concourse_n of_o god_n do_v not_o consist_v in_o act_v upon_o second_o cause_n as_o if_o they_o stand_v in_o need_n of_o be_v move_v by_o god_n in_o order_n to_o produce_v their_o effect_n but_o that_o god_n act_v immediate_o in_o the_o action_n together_o with_o the_o cause_n and_o that_o if_o god_n shall_v push_v on_o the_o will_n to_o act_v he_o will_v thereby_o ruin_v the_o liberty_n thereof_o from_o which_o principle_n molina_n draw_v these_o consequence_n 1._o that_o man_n by_o the_o strength_n of_o nature_n can_v believe_v supernatural_a mystery_n 2._o that_o have_v perform_v what_o lie_v in_o he_o according_a to_o his_o natural_a strength_n and_o ability_n god_n come_v in_o and_o bestow_v his_o grace_n and_o that_o god_n foresee_v who_o those_o be_v that_o will_v make_v use_n of_o these_o ability_n when_o the_o gospel_n shall_v be_v preach_v unto_o they_o he_o be_v ready_a to_o bestow_v upon_o they_o the_o grace_n that_o be_v necessary_a for_o their_o total_a conversion_n 3._o that_o a_o man_n by_o his_o natural_a strength_n can_v form_v a_o resolution_n of_o never_o offend_a god_n for_o time_n to_o come_v 4._o that_o natural_a light_n may_v be_v sufficient_a to_o keep_v the_o law_n of_o nature_n whatsoever_o trouble_n or_o difficulty_n there_o may_v be_v in_o the_o do_n of_o it_o the_o second_o principle_n of_o molina_n be_v that_o god_n do_v not_o refuse_v to_o any_o grow_a person_n the_o assistance_n that_o be_v necessary_a for_o he_o to_o persevere_v in_o that_o which_o it_o good_a so_o that_o it_o be_v the_o fault_n of_o he_o who_o do_v not_o persevere_v in_o godliness_n and_o not_o the_o want_n of_o grace_n that_o make_v he_o to_o fall_v away_o the_o three_o principle_n be_v that_o we_o be_v to_o distinguish_v in_o god_n three_o sort_n of_o knowledge_n the_o one_o pure_o natural_a the_o other_o altogether_o free_a and_o the_o three_o mediate_v or_o partake_v of_o both_o according_a to_o which_o latter_a god_n by_o the_o intimate_a knowledge_n he_o have_v of_o the_o freewill_n of_o every_o man_n know_v what_o he_o will_v do_v suppose_v such_o or_o such_o a_o thing_n though_o it_o be_v in_o his_o power_n to_o do_v the_o contrary_n under_o this_o principle_n be_v comprehend_v these_o proposition_n 1._o that_o there_o be_v but_o one_o exciting_a grace_n and_o none_o that_o be_v efficacious_a in_o itself_o 2._o that_o it_o be_v not_o grace_n that_o determine_v the_o freewill_n but_o that_o the_o freewill_n determine_v itself_o the_o four_o principle_n be_v that_o god_n predestinate_v those_o who_o he_o foresee_v by_o his_o mediate_a knowledge_n will_v make_v good_a use_n of_o the_o strength_n of_o nature_n and_o of_o grace_n the_o consulter_n of_o the_o congregation_n de_fw-fr auxiliis_fw-la for_o so_o they_o call_v they_o because_o they_o therein_o treat_v concern_v the_o assistance_n which_o god_n afford_v man_n in_o order_n to_o apply_v themselves_o to_o that_o which_o be_v good_a have_v couch_v the_o sentiment_n of_o molina_n in_o twenty_o proposition_n whereof_o the_o most_o be_v the_o very_a same_o or_o to_o the_o same_o sense_n of_o those_o we_o have_v here_o set_v down_o they_o censure_v every_o one_o of_o they_o as_o may_v be_v see_v in_o the_o abridgement_n of_o the_o act_n which_o be_v still_o in_o be_v and_o declare_v that_o molina_n and_o his_o adherent_n which_o be_v the_o jesuit_n have_v espouse_v the_o opinion_n of_o the_o pelagian_n and_o the_o semipelagian_o as_o well_o in_o the_o principle_n of_o their_o doctrine_n as_o in_o their_o proof_n and_o objection_n they_o tell_v we_o that_o hereupon_o the_o jesuit_n join_v threat_n with_o their_o prayer_n to_o hinder_v the_o publication_n of_o this_o censure_n and_o that_o out_o of_o very_a rage_n they_o public_o maintain_v in_o rome_n that_o it_o be_v no_o part_n of_o the_o faith_n that_o clement_n viii_o be_v pope_n
