If you embrace the late Lutheranes o-, pinion, and bring within the compaffe of the Predeflinary peflilencé the dotrine of Predeftination which they difallow , you manifeftly brand the Church of England with this note of infamy, and might as well charge us with the Sacramentary peflilence for denying their feigned Confubftantiati- on and Orall manducationof the flesh of Chrift , as with the PredeItinary peflilence for denying their Conditional) Predeftina- tion upon forefight of mess belief in Chrift.
