Answ. I must not deny but that this opinion is charged upon St. Austin by some learned men; and a Reverend Divine hath lately in a book printed about this subject asserted it as a thing undubitable and without controversy, and for this end he brings many sayings out of his works which favour this opinion. But this learned brother may, if he please, read an answer to most of those quotations long ago given by Bishop Abbot in his animadversions 1upon Tompsons Diatriba de amissione & intercisione justificationis & gratiae.

As for example.2
