As for Beza, I know full well he maintained, that man not created is the object of Predestination, but can this Author represent unto us, any place out of Beza, wherein he should affirm, that God doth decree to damn any man but for sin; or that damnation is the end that God intends in the decree of Predestination to death? In his Questions and Answers he professeth the contrary. pag. 111. Postremò non dixi exitium istorum (he speaks of Reprobates) esse finem deo decernenti propositum, sed gloriam ipsius. Nequè etiam simpliciter dixi istos esse exitio destinatos, sed justo exitio destinatos dixi. And in his Book De aeternâ Dei Praedestinatione contrà Sebastian. Castell: ad argument. Castell. 2. pag. 346. Quamobrem etiam illud quoquè probavimus, nos ita loqui non solere, & quanquam à Deo simpliciter conditum dicamus ad perditionem, sed idcircò ut ipsius justa condemnatione Dominus justitiam suam patefaciat.

As for Zanchy; Peter Baro, that caused such perturbation in Cambridge about this very ⟨p. 13⟩argument, he denies this to have been the opinion of Zanchy, In summa trium de Praedestinatione sententiarum; his words are these, Altera sententia est Augustini, posterior etiam Sohnii Heydelbergensis Theologiae Professoris, & aliorum quorundam Protestantium, ut Zanchii, atquè etiam Bellarmini, qui omnes priorem illam improbant, in hoc inter se consentientes, ut sit praedestinatio ab Adami tantum lapsu accipienda.
