713. Yea, Ariminensis seemeth to mean this himself, when ibid. d. 34, 35. a. 2. ad 5. he saith [Deus •potest solus actum illum causare, & act•• odiendi, id est, qui est odium Dei, & mendacium etiam potest causare▪ Non tamen potest causare actum odiendi Deum, seu odium Dei: neq•• potest Causare Mendacium vel mentiri, neque potest causare actum •• lum; Quare quemcunque actum causaret solus, licet ille nunc sit Odi•• Dei vel mendacium, vel aliquis actus malus, si tamen Deus solus ill•• causaret, sicut potest illum causare solus, non esset actus, neque odi•m De• vel mendacium.] But whatever he thought, I have before answered this difficulty of the Entity of the acts of sin.

And another is, Eodem modo quo electio fons est & causá fidei ac b norum operum, reprobationem esse causam infidelitatis & impietatu: Another is, Multos fidelium infantes ab uberibus matrum innoxios abri & tyrannice in Gehennam praecipitari, adeo ut iis nec Baptismus, nec Ecclesiae in corum baptismo preces, prodesse queant.
