Cap. VIII Resp. Secundo: reprobates regarded as bound by original guilt — rich in mercy may still elect and pass by
Second, note also: all whom God reprobates are regarded by him as bound by original guilt and liable to damnation — though that is not simply necessary to clear God of injustice or cruelty as to negative reprobation, as is plain in the angels. But among men it stands thus: all who are reprobated are in themselves deserving of condemnation and worthy of hatred. God, though rich in mercy, can most equitably by liberty of will elect some from among them and reprobate others — all of whom original sin has made worthy of hatred and (if one may so speak) reprobable.
Latin
Secundo, et illud notandum est, Eos omnes qui a Deo reprobantur, spectari ab eodem Deo ut peccati originalis reatu constrictos et damnationi obnoxios: quamvis hoc non sit simpliciter necessarium ad vindicandum Deum ab injustitia aut crudelitate, quod attinet ad reprobationem negativam, ut patet in angelis. Verum cum inter homines ita se res habeat, ut illi omnes qui reprobentur sint in se damnabiles et odio digni; Deus, quamvis dives sit in misericordia, potest aequissime pro suae voluntatis libertate ex illis quosdam eligere, quosdam reprobare, quos universos originale peccatum reddidit odio dignos et (si ita loqui liceat) reprobabiles.
