And indeed the very Doctrine ⟨p. 230⟩of Austin, was charged with the same crimination: For albeit Sigebert professeth that this Heresy arose ex Augustini libris male intellectis: out of Austins Book not rightly understood; yet the learned Arch-Bishop of Armagh, had made it manifest, that this very crimination was charged upon Austins doctrine. Histor. Gottesc. pag. 22. And that out of the beginning of the 6. book Hypomnestican or Hypognosticon. The words are these, and I pray mark it well, whether it be not punctually the very objection which this Author makes in this place: Credere nos vel praedicare sugillatis (quia cum lege Dei & Prophetis cum Evangelio Christi ejusque Apostolis Praedestinationem dicimus) quod Deus quosdam hominum sic praedestinet ad vitam regni caelorum, ut si nolent orare, aut jejunare, aut in omni operé divino vigiles esse, eos omnino perire non posse, nec prorsus sui debere esse sollicitos, quos Deus, quia voluit semel jam eligendo praedestinavit ad vitam: Quisdam vero sic praedestinavit in Gehennae paenam, ut etiam si credere velint, si jejuniis & orationibus omnique see voluntati divinae subjecerint in his Deum non delectari, & vitam illis aeternam in toto dari non posse; sic electione praedestinatos esse ut pereant. Judge I pray whether this be not the very objection charged upon the doctrine of Austin, which this Author chargeth upon our doctrine. And indeed that most learned Bishop showeth, how that albeit, the Predestinatian heresy is pretended by Sigebert to have risen out of Austins books not rightly understood, as also by Tyro Prosper (Ancient to Sigebert) as he is set forth in Print; yet Tyro himself plainly professeth, that the Heresy mentioned orta est ab Augustino, rose from Augustine himself, as appears by the Manuscripts of that Author, which that learned Bishop had searched, one found in Bennet College in Cambridge, and another in the Kings Library: whereby it is apparent, that this pretended Heresy of the Predestinatians (no Author thereof being ever known to the world) was a mere nick-name devised by the Remnants of the Pelagians, and reproachfully cast upon the doctrine of Austin, as now a days it is upon our doctrine, which is the same with Austins. As for the Ministers Preaching in vain in some sense, and in some cases;
