Lutherans: man can and does hinder grace; Reformed: grace determines infallibly, yet in the divided sense he can dissent
We have shown just as clearly that the doctors of the Augsburg Confession ascribe to man a freedom by which he is able not only to hinder the effect of divine grace but often does hinder it in fact.
The Reformed teach instead that grace moves and determines man's free choice to act well infallibly and irresistibly, yet does not for that reason remove its real power to act otherwise and to stop acting. Given grace, then, a man cannot dissent from it in what the Schools call the composite sense, though he can in the divided sense.
Latin
L. Nec minus clarum fecimus Confessionis Augustanae Doctores eam libertatem homini tribuere, per quam divinae gratiae effectum, non tantum impedire possit, sed de facto saepe impediat: Reformatos vero docere gratiam quidem liberum hominis arbitrium ad bene agendum movere atque determinare infallibiliter & insuperabiliter, sed propterea tamen ab eo non tollere veram potentiam aliter agendi, & ab actione cessandi: ita ut homo posita gratia, non possit illi dissentire, ut Scholae loquuntur in sensu composito, possit tamen in sensu diviso.
