explaining it sometimes by all. Bibite ex hoc omnes;166 The Huguenots are
heretics in explaining it by all. In quo omnes peccaverunt,167 the Huguenots

follow the Fathers and tradition in order to know when to do so, since there
is heresy to be feared on both sides.

modo timeas. Fear not, provided you fear; but if you fear not, then fear.
Qui me recipit, non me recipit, sed eum qui me misit.170
Nemo scit, neque Filius.171
Nubes lucida obumbravit.172
Saint John was to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and Jesus
Christ to plant division. There is not contradiction.
777. The effects in communi and in particulari. The semi-Pelagians err in
saying of in communi what is true only in particulari; and the Calvinists in

the Jews elected to the exclusion of the Gentiles, indicate exclusion.
"Jesus Christ the Redeemer of all." Yes, for He has offered, like a man who

concern, of the like nature, at Northfield. And wherever this concern
appeared, it seemed not to be in vain: but in every place God brought
saving blessings with Him, and His word attended with His Spirit (as we
