XIII. That impotency excuseth a man, when he strongly would do the act and cannot; but not that by which he would not do it, though he cannot will it without grace. p. 145, 146.
XIV. Christs dying for All, is meant only for all the Church, or all sorts: yet as he giveth to others the grace of faith and Love without perseverance and salvation, so far he dyed for them▪ and prayed for them. c. 20. p. 163, 164.
XV. The essence of the grace of Christ is a Heavenly Suavity or Delectation, given before our free act, by which the will is bowed to act what God will. It is a vital and indeliberate act of the soul, even of Love and Desire before Consent, and that Delight which is our Rest and Joy. li. 4. c. 1. & 11. Plainly it is a necessitated complacency, which is the first act of Love; when God and Righteousness, not for our selves, but for themselves and as such, are Pleasing to the soul.
