This is not barely affirmed, but strongly proved by D. Twice, and of his proofs you take no notice, but only object against what he saith: This if it be a laudable, is a very easy, and compendious way of handling a controversy, for it would save a man the labour of that, which hath still been accounted the most difficult task in Polemical Writers, to wit, solution of Arguments; but I shall acquaint the Reader with what you conceal, and I do not doubt, but upon representation thereof, he will acquit the Doctor, and his distinction, from that vanity which you lay to his charge. Rem a Deo decretam cum re a ⟨p. 245⟩Deo mandata, pugnare posse dicimus; interea decretum Dei cum mandato pugnare posse non dicimus; uirumque demonstramus. Rem a Deo decretam cum re a Deo mandata pugnare posse, sic oftendimus; sacrificatio Isaaci & non-sacrificatic Isaici pugnant inter se, sunt enim termini contradicentes. At harum altera fuit a Deo mandata Abrahamo, uti docet Scriptura, simulque eodem tempore non-sacrificatio fuit à Deo decreta, ut colligitur ex eventu. Nam Deus eam efficaciter impedivit, ne fieret. Quare res a Deo mandata, pugnare potest cum re a Deo decreta. Rursus, dimissio populi Israelitici ex Aegypto, & non-dimissio pugnant inter se, sunt enim sibi invicem contradicentes: at altera, nempe dimissio, fuit a Deo mandata Pharaoni; altera, puta non-dimissio, fuit a Deo eodem tempore decreta. Nam & mandavit Pharaoni per Mosem & Aaronem ut populum dimitteret; simul etiam significavit, se obduraturum cor Pharaonis, ut non dimitteret; ergo res a Deo mandata, pugnare potest cum re à Deo decreta.
