own_o proper_a lively_a act_n 1_o in_o order_n of_o time_n the_o work_n of_o god_n convert_v man_n and_o the_o act_n of_o man_n turn_v himself_o to_o god_n can_v hardly_o be_v distinguish_v but_o in_o order_n of_o causality_n or_o efficiency_n god_n work_n must_v needs_o go_v before_o and_o we_o follow_v a_o evil_a tree_n natural_o bring_v forth_o evil_a fruit_n must_v needs_o be_v change_v into_o a_o good_a tree_n before_o it_o can_v bear_v any_o good_a fruit_n but_o the_o will_n of_o a_o unregenerate_a man_n be_v not_o only_o as_o a_o bad_a but_o as_o a_o dead_a tree_n therefore_o if_o it_o bring_v forth_o good_a fruit_n it_o do_v it_o not_o that_o thereby_o it_o may_v be_v better_v or_o that_o by_o its_o own_o cooperation_n it_o may_v be_v quicken_v but_o it_o do_v it_o because_o it_o be_v already_o change_v and_o quicken_v this_o be_v elegant_o express_v by_o saint_n austin_n a_o wheel_n say_v he_o do_v not_o therefore_o run_v well_o 2._o that_o it_o may_v be_v round_o but_o because_o it_o be_v round_o so_o say_v we_o the_o will_n run_v well_o not_o that_o it_o may_v be_v regenerate_v but_o because_o it_o be_v already_o regenerate_v 242._o hugo_n de_fw-fr sancto_fw-la

the_o will_n afterward_o it_o work_v by_o the_o will_n 2_o second_o we_o say_v that_o god_n do_v not_o only_o work_v this_o habitual_a conversion_n whereby_o a_o man_n get_v new_a spiritual_a ability_n to_o believe_v and_o convert_v but_o also_o that_o god_n do_v by_o a_o certain_a wonderful_a efficacy_n of_o his_o secret_a operation_n extract_v out_o of_o our_o regenerate_v will_n the_o very_a act_n of_o believe_a and_o convert_v so_o the_o scripture_n speak_v in_o divers_a place_n john_n 6.66_o the_o father_n give_v we_o power_n to_o come_v unto_o the_o son_n that_o be_v to_o

infuse_v some_o strength_n into_o we_o shall_v only_o give_v we_o a_o possibility_n or_o power_n of_o believe_a a_o possibility_n or_o power_n of_o convert_v and_o so_o leave_v the_o act_n to_o the_o free_a will_n of_o man_n sure_o we_o shall_v all_o do_v as_o our_o first_o father_n do_v by_o our_o free_a will_v we_o shall_v fall_v from_o god_n neither_o shall_v we_o ever_o bring_v this_o possibility_n into_o act_n this_o therefore_o be_v that_o excellent_a special_a grace_n grant_v to_o the_o elect_a in_o christ_n whereby_o they_o not_o only_o can_v believe_v if_o they_o will_v but_o also_o will_v believe_v then_o when_o they_o can_v phil._n 2.13_o god_n work_v in_o we_o the_o will_n and_o the_o deed_n this_o work_a grace_n the_o father_n of_o the_o catholic_n church_n have_v maintain_v against_o the_o pelagian_n god_n command_v a_o man_n to_o will_n african_n but_o he_o also_o work_v in_o he_o this_o very_a thing_n namely_o he_o command_v he_o to_o do_v but_o also_o

to_o make_v we_o believe_v 3_o last_o this_o also_o we_o add_v that_o this_o action_n of_o god_n in_o produce_v faith_n do_v not_o hinder_v but_o rather_o be_v the_o cause_n that_o the_o will_n do_v work_v together_o with_o god_n and_o produce_v its_o own_o act_n and_o therefore_o this_o act_n of_o believe_a howsoever_o it_o be_v send_v from_o god_n yet_o because_o it_o be_v perform_v by_o man_n be_v attribute_v to_o man_n himself_o rom._n 10.10_o with_o the_o heart_n man_n believe_v unto_o righteousness_n 2_o cor._n 4.13_o i_o believe_v therefore_o have_v i_o speak_v 2._o it_o be_v god_n not_o who_o believe_v all_o thing_n in_o all_o man_n but_o who_o work_v all_o thing_n in_o all_o man_n it_o be_v certain_a we_o believe_v when_o we_o believe_v but_o it_o be_v god_n who_o bring_v to_o pass_v that_o we_o believe_v we_o be_v they_o that_o work_n but_o god_n work_v in_o we_o the_o very_a work_n the_o second_o position_n this_o action_n of_o god_n do_v not_o hinder_v the_o freedom_n of_o the_o will_n but_o strengthen_v it_o neither_o do_v it_o root_n out_o the_o vicious_a power_n we_o have_v to_o resist_v but_o it_o do_v effectual_o and_o sweet_o bestow_v on_o a_o man_n a_o resolute_a will_n to_o obey_v 1_o here_o we_o deny_v two_o thing_n first_o that_o by_o the_o divine_a operation_n there_o be_v any_o wrong_n offer_v to_o the_o will_n for_o god_n do_v so_o work_v in_o nature_n even_o when_o he_o raise_v and_o advance_v it_o above_o its_o proper_a sphere_n that_o he_o do_v not_o destroy_v the_o particular_a nature_n and_o be_v of_o any_o thing_n but_o leave_v to_o every_o thing_n it_o be_v own_o way_n and_o motion_n to_o perform_v the_o action_n when_o therefore_o god_n work_v in_o the_o will_n of_o man_n by_o his_o spirit_n of_o grace_n he_o make_v they_o move_v in_o their_o natural_a course_n that_o be_v free_o and_o then_o do_v they_o work_v the_o more_o free_o by_o how_o much_o they_o be_v the_o more_o effectual_o stir_v up_o by_o the_o spirit_n john_n 8.36_o if_o the_o son_n shall_v make_v you_o free_a you_o shall_v be_v free_a indeed_o 2_o cor._n 3.17_o where_o the_o spirit_n of_o the_o lord_n be_v there_o be_v liberty_n very_o it_o seem_v incredible_a to_o we_o that_o god_n who_o make_v our_o will_n and_o gift_v they_o with_o liberty_n shall_v not_o be_v able_a to_o work_v on_o they_o or_o in_o they_o after_o such_o a_o manner_n as_o that_o without_o hurt_v the_o nature_n of_o they_o he_o may_v free_o to_o produce_v any_o good_a action_n by_o they_o 14._o he_o do_v what_o he_o please_v with_o the_o will_n of_o man_n and_o when_o

withal_o deny_v it_o to_o be_v violent_a 2_o a_o second_o thing_n which_o we_o here_o disclaim_v be_v the_o whole_a extirpation_n of_o corruption_n for_o although_o god_n in_o the_o very_a act_n of_o regeneration_n do_v work_v so_o powerful_o upon_o the_o will_n that_o actual_o the_o present_a power_n to_o resist_v be_v suspend_v for_o that_o time_n yet_o do_v he_o not_o pluck_v up_o by_o the_o

concupiscence_n remain_v in_o the_o soul_n of_o man_n certain_a it_o be_v that_o there_o must_v needs_o be_v there_o withal_o not_o only_o a_o possibility_n but_o also_o a_o proneness_n to_o resist_v the_o motion_n of_o the_o holy_a spirit_n gal._n 5.7_o the_o flesh_n lust_v against_o the_o spirit_n but_o this_o reluctant_a power_n by_o reason_n of_o the_o most_o forcible_a and_o yet_o sweet_a
