To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
3. Arminianism does not put the Creator in a posture of waiting ignorance or sincere discomfiture ;" although it does not ascribe to God, that unscriptural sovei^eigntij which would put all events, and among others, the production of the author's book, among those acts which God foreknows, because he has de- creed them. Thus making God himself the author of a work, filled as this is, with all manner of inconsis- tency, mistake, and uncharitableness. We cannot, 93 with the author and his creed, ..." give the glory to God's sovereignty, for predestinating the reprobate necessa- rily to continue in sin, and be damned ; nor ascribe to Him the shameful glory of seducing Eve in the shape of a lying serpent, lest he should not have the glory of being a sovereign and doing all and in all. " Soberly, we allege that Calvinism may be justly charged with representing the " Creator in a posture of waiting ignorance and sincere discomfiture. " at which Arminianism shudders ; for says Calvin him- self, " how came God to foreknow man's fall, [nisi quia sic ordinarat] but because he had appointed it I" thus absurdly implying, that God knows what he ab- solutely decrees, and no more !
