iniquâ hâc agendi ratione, non quidem deprecati sunt, ne de reprobatione sententiam suam manifestarent (uti Remonstrantes improbè saepius ipsis objectarunt) sed disertè sententiam suam quantum ad Ecclesiarum pacem atque aedificationem sufficere existimarent, non tantum vivâ voce sed & scripto declararunt. Se nimirum cum aeternum electionis singularium personarum decretum ponunt, simul quoque ponere aeternum de reprobatione & rejectione quarundam singularium personarum decretum, quum fieri nequeat ut sit electio, quin simul quòque sit aliqua reprobatio aut derelictio. Difficiles omnes circa hunc articulum questions temere excutere, nihil aliud esse quam inutilibus disputationibus & nihil profuturis litibus, Ecclesiam replere, ejusque pacem perturbare. Declarationem suam hanc Libello supplice expressam, moderatis omnibus, pace• que amantibus ingeniis, sufficere debere: Credi videlicet ac doceri ab ipsis, Deum neminem condemnare, imò verò ne statuisse quidem condemnare quenquam nisi justè propter propria ipsius peccata: Placuit itaque Illust. Ordd. ut missis illis spinosis quaestionibus, ad articulorum pertractationem deveniretur. And Pag. 136. & 156. I find this objection proposed by the Remonstrants in these words. Pag. 156. In Collation Haghiensi Libello supplice Illust. Hollandiae & Westfriziae Ordinibus exhibito, deprecati sunt Contra-Remonstrantes ne de reprobatione ageretur: & more at large Pag. 195. Thus, Ipsi Contra-Remonstrantes cum in Colloquio Haghiensi jussi essent, ad interrogata quaedam nostra de reprobatione respondere Magistratui morem gerere gravati fuerint, usque adeò ut Collationem caeptam abrumpere see mall profiterentur quàm ut summarum Potestatum imperio see constringi paterentur, nihil aliud conscientiae suae praetexentes quam quod Ecclesiae aedificationi obfuturam eam agendi rationem judicarent. Now to this Pag. 157. Festus Hominus, one present in that Conference, stands up and answers, Exposuitque paucis quàm non bonâ fide haec de illis dicerentur. See Libello supplice non fuisse deprecatos, ne de reprobatione ageretur: caeterùm quia Remonstrantes subdolè in ipso Collationis initio, septem questionibus spinosis ac minime necessariis non tantum ad reprobationis, sed electionis quoque doctrinam spectantibus, à recto agendi ordine Contra-Remonstrantes in ambages adducere conarentur.
