Whom he hath fore-knowne.

In that here the cause why God doth neuer finally re∣iect or forsake his people, is onely ascribed to his fore-knowledge. 1. to the pleasure of his good will,* 1.1 inward fauour and eternall predestination; it excludeth and re∣moueth all mans merites, and all outward dignities, pre∣rogatiues and excellencies what-soeuer, from beeing any cause of it.

* 1.2And no maruaile, for if man (though regenerate) cannot, in respect of his finite and sinfull nature merite ought at Gods hands, hauing a being both by nature and grace, much lesse could he merite ought before hee had any be∣ing or existence at all.

Vse. Ergo, seeing there is no cause of glorying in vs, or any outward ornament, and seeing nothing mooued God to elect vs, but onely his meere mercy and fauour, let vs ascribe and returne with thankfull hearts all the glory and praise, thereof to him, to whom alone it apper∣taineth.
