Cap. VI Arg. 12: first — Quisquis decree stands even if none or all believe; Peter = Judas
First: that decree would stand firm even if no one believed and all perished — or if all believed and all were saved. As law or edict it declares by what deeds are done, anyone may come to eternal life, and by what neglected may not. But as a practical segregating decree, no one is set apart or chosen before others, no one passed by. If Judas believes and perseveres, by it he is saved; if Peter does not, by the same he is damned. Nothing is decreed for Peter not under the same condition for Judas; nothing denied Judas not under the same for Peter. Cling to that decree on equal law, and all are destined to salvation and all excluded from it. So there is no segregation of singulars, no election with others passed by.
Latin
Primo, quia staret hoc decretum firmum et immobile, etiamsi nemo crederet, etiamsi omnes perirent; et e contra, etiamsi omnes crederent, et omnes servarentur. Tali ergo decreto, per modum legis aut Edicti, declaratur quibus officiis praestitis liceat cuilibet vitam aeternam adire, quibus neglectis non liceat: at interim, per modum decreti practici et segregativi, nemo segregatur aut prae aliis eligitur, nemo praeteritur aut relinquitur. Si enim Judas crediderit et perseveraverit, virtute hujus decreti servabitur: Si Petrus non crediderit et perseveraverit, virtute ejusdem damnabitur. Nihil hic decernitur Petro, quod non sub eadem conditione decernitur Judae; nihil negatur Judae, quod non sub eadem conditione negatur Petro. Pari lege et conditione, huic decreto inhaereamus, omnes destinantur ad salutem, omnes excluduntur a salute. Nulla igitur in hoc decreto singularium personarum segregatio, aut aliis praeteritis electio.
