§. 22. If somewhat antecedent to the Act, it is either a Disposition, or Infused Habit, or an Impression, Impulse or Influx which is neither Disposition nor Habit.*

§. 23. 1. A proper Habit of faith it is not: Though Mr. Pemble singularly seem so to think, yet he meaneth but a seminal disposition. And it's commonly held that the Habit is given by sanctification, after the Act given in Vocation. 2. But if it were otherwise, the Habit is not always sufficient to ascertain the Act. For holy men oft sin against a Habit, and believers do not always exercise it. Habits Incline per modum naturae, but do not certainly determine to the act. 3. And of a Disposition it must be so said much more.
