B. Zanchy saith, (Thes. Vol. 3. fine, Thes. 13. 16. de Volunt. Dei) Eadem de causa dici non potest Dei voluntatem proprie & simpliciter fuisse, ut Christus pro salute omnium moreretur, id est, ut omnis per ejus mortem servaretur, ac proinde Christum secundum propositum patris pro salute omnium mortuum esse; sed tantum, ut loquuntur, sufficienter.—Caeterum damnari etiam illi non possunt, qui spectata revelata voluntate Dei docent, & Deum velle omnes homines salvos fieri, & Christum pro salute omnium hominum mortuum esse, & neutrum velle peccatum; cum haec omnia sint verissima.

Abbot de Verit. Grat. Christi, pag. 35, 36, 37. [Huic disputati•ni dabit initium—Ambrosis Sententia in Luc. c. 7
