1. Qu. Can one and the same person be an enemy and a friend vnto God, beloued and hated of him, at one & the same time, especially seeing that the affirmation hereof seemeth to imply a flatte contradiction?
Answ. Yes, thus Paul before his conuersion, was a friend of God in regard of his election, albeit an enemy before; and thus our Sauiour Christ, is said to giue his life for his friends. Iohn. 15.13. But in Rom. 5.10. Christ is said to reconcile vs vnto his Father by his death, whiles we were yet sinners, & when we were enemies: as that all the Elect are by nature children of wrath, and enemies vnto God, but they are also friends and beloued euen before their calling and sanctification, because by the grace and mer∣cy of God, they are from all eternitie chosen and beloued in Christ, Rom. 9.11.13 and because God will & doth in time call them to faith, knowledge and obedience.
Secondly, we, for the clearing of the Text answer, that the Iewes in Pauls time, and sithence were and are ene∣mies vnto God, in regarde that the greatest multitude of them were reprobates & so cast off, but yet both then and euer since, they are beloued of God, so many of them, as are elected, which albeit they then and hitherto haue bin but few, yet at their generall calling, it will appeare that they are very many.
