SECT. XVI. Of Infused Habits, and the Holy Ghost Given us▪1
- 1The Schoolmen that speak most for the necessity of Infused Habits, cannot agree what use they are for; Aureolus supposeth chiefly for the right circumstantiating of Acts, rather than for promptitude to them and pleasure in them. And when all is said, they give men but small comfort from them, saying (as Aureolus, Brianson, &c.) that no man can be sure that he hath them, seeing acquired Habits may do the same things that Infused do. [Utrum Beatitudo supernaturalis hujus vitae sit magis in Habitibus quam in operationibus, vid. Suarez Metaph. disp. 44. sect. 8. n. 18. & Molina 1. p. q. 12. ar. 5. disp. 2. ar. 2. pro habitibus. Sed contra inquit Aegid. de Sancta Praesentatione Li. 4. de beatit. q. 5. a. 3. p•. 471. His non obstantibus oppositum▪ affirmant omnes Theologi qui bac de re scripserunt: nec videtur posse de hoc dubitari. And yet Alens. 2. p. q. 104. m. 3. Aquin. 1. 2. q. 51. a. 2. ad 3. & q. 63. a. 2. ad 3. & Valenti••. To. disp. 4. q. 3. punct. 2. &c. are for preferring Habits. Idem Aegid. de Praesentat. li. 4. p. 443, 444. tells us that by Grace God is Present in the soul as his Temple otherwise than by Immensity and sustentation; But his praesentia Amicitia can mean nothing but the special effects of Gods Love. Nostrâ tempestate non solum est temerarium, & periculosum, sed ferè hareticum habitus insusos negare; Nam Concil. Vienens. &c. & universi Theologi uno consensu affirmant dari habitus insusos: Medina in 1. 2. q. 51. a. 4. 282. But Soto li. 2. de nat. & grat. c. 17, 18. saith that the Concil. Trid. purposely forbore to define the case of infused habits. Let the Reader note that Jansenius proveth that Pelagius himself asserted infused Habits given in baptism, and that without merit. Jans. Aug. To. 1. li. 5. c. 22. p. 126.
