Latin

XXIV. Sed inter Reformatos reperiuntur nonnulli qui electionis objectum constituunt hominem non lapsum simpliciter & peccato corruptum, sed praeterea jam ad gratiae Christi participationem & communionem vocatum externa praedicatione. Nec enim decretum de Christo Redemptore mittendo, & de gratia ejus per verbi praedicationem hominibus offerenda, volunt facere partem decreti praedestinationis, & subordinari decreto de hisce illis hominibus aeterna salute donandis. Quin potius statuunt, secundum nostrum concipiendi modum, Deum prius decrevisse Christum in mundum mittere, quam certos quosdam homines ad vitam & salutem per veram in Christum fidem efficaciter perducere.
