DOCT. III. That God hath predestinated some men unto life and others unto death.

WHerefore we make no doubt of this, That God out of men (to speak nothing of the Angells) whom at the creation he made all righte∣ous in Adam, but foresaw that they would all sin likewise in him,* 1.1 hath in Christ chosen some that they should be holy and without blame before him in love, and hath also predestinated them unto eternall life, of his meere grate, and according to the good pleasure of his will:* 1.2 but in his just judgement hath not vouchsafed to give his grace unto others, as being the vessels of wrath fitted for destruction: That in those, his infinite mercie; but in these, his justice might be made known unto the world, to his owne glorie.
