Wherefore God hath in his hand the affections of our hart, which he loseth or restraineth as shall seem good to his most wise providence, & turneth them whithersoever it shall please him. And so great is his power,1 that we must believe that he worketh much more, than may be expressed by the word of permission. For Paul feared not thus to write unto the Thessalonians: because they have not received the love of the truth, therefore shall God send on them an error, so that they shall believe lies, & all they shall be judged which have not believed the truth, but allowed unrighteousness.

These wordes manifestly testifye, yt God did cast error vpon them, to punish their former sinne, namelye vpon those which despised the truth offered them. Dauid also semeth to tend to this, when in the .2. booke of Samuel the .16. chap. he said of Simeck: Suffer him,2
