2. I nothing doubt, but that infants are saved sine mediis; I spake not of the Media of their salvation, but of the manifestation of Gods mercy in their salvation: I make no question, but that they are saved, by the merits of Christ, whether they have the ordinary means of applying Christ unto them, or no.

3. Touching reprobate Infants, I prove the permission of Adams fall, and their fall in Adam, was a Medium, tending to the manifestation or Gods justice in their damnation. For if God did permit Adam to fall, and them in Adam, to this end, namely, to the manifestation of his justice in their damnation, then this permission was a Medium tending thereto. But to this end God did permit Adams fall, and their fall in Adam: which I prove thus; He did permit it for the manifestation of his own glory, as to this end he doth all things. But no glory of God is so conveniently manifested hereby, as the glory of his justice in their damnation; unless you will say with Alphonsus Mendoza, and Didscus Alvarez, that rather the manifestation of Gods glorious grace towards his elect, in consideration that he could have made them vessels of wrath as well as others, is the cause, why God doth not save all, but permits a multitude to sin, after much different courses, and damns them for sin.
