To go one step farther, D. Twice is very unlikely to conclude from Gods decree, barely to permit a thing to come to pass conditionally, in such a case, upon such terms, or upon such a supposition, that therefore the thing so decreed, shall absolutely come to pass, because if we speak of positive things, he is clearly and constantly of the opinion, that we cannot say truly, that they shall come to pass, so much as conditionally in such a case, upon such terms, &c. Unless God decree not barely to permit, but to work and effect the thing conditionated, upon supposal of such conditions, De Scientià Medià. p. 430. Ad eundem modum concedimus omnem enunciationem conditionatam de futuris conditionatis esse necessariam, modo Deus decreverit, posità tali conditione, rem ipsam conditionatam effectam dare: quod nisi ponamus Deum decrevisse, prorsus praeter omnem Analogiam disserit Suarez; dumb prophetiarum comminantium & promittentium eandem rationem esse vult, atque propositionum de futuris contingentibus conditionatarum qualiumcunque, quas etiam prophetias appellat Suarez. Now if he will not allow us to make any inference of the conditional futurition of positive things, from a decree that is barely permissive, and conditional, it would be very strange, if he himself should make such a permissive conditional decree, to be illative of the absolute futurition of whatsoever is so decreed.

Unlesse God decree not barely to permit, but to worke and effect the thing conditionated, upon supposall of such conditions, De Scientià Medià. p. 430.

Now if he will not allow us to make any inference of the conditionall futurition of positive things, from a decree that is barely permissive, and conditionall, it would be very strange, if he himselfe should make such a permissive conditionall decree, to be illative of the absolute futurition of whatsoever is so decreed.
