Many Roman doctors are not satisfied; some cut the knot by denying that any free acts are predefined (Suarez, per Strang)
This way of reconciling human freedom with the decrees of God's providence, however, does not satisfy a great many doctors of the Roman school. Some of them, to cut the knot, deny that any free acts, whether of the natural or the supernatural order, were predefined by God from eternity.
Nor, on their view, does God predetermine any such acts in time, since they think predefinition and predetermination alike are incompatible with the freedom of the will. Suarez mentions these men, as John Strang reports, in book 3 of his work on the helps of grace, chapter 17, numbers 1 and 2.
Latin
XIX. Verum ista ratio conciliandi libertatem humanam cum providentiae Divinae decretis non satisfacit plurimis Scholae Romanae doctoribus. Itaque inter eos reperiuntur nonnulli qui, ut nodum hunc secent, negant ullos actus liberos, sive naturalis, sive supernaturalis ordinis, ab aeterno a Deo esse praedefinitos; ut nec in tempore ulli tales actus, juxta eorum sensum, a Deo praedeterminantur: quia praedefinitionem pariter ac praedeterminationem voluntatis libertati repugnare existimant. Horum, referente Joanne Strangio, meminit Suares libro tertio de Auxiliis cap. 17. num. 1 & 2.
