Thesis XXXI. 'If it is asked whether, beyond enlightening the mind, stirring the affections and inviting the will, grace does nothing by way of principle or in advance of conversion, we answer that it does something.'
What grace does besides this seems, on their view, to be the infusion of the new strength they spoke of earlier.
Latin
XXXI. Si quaeratur, An praeter mentis illustrationem, & affectuum excitationem, & voluntatis invitationem nihil faciat Gratia per modum principii, vel antecedenter ad conversionem? Respondemus facere. Quod autem gratia praeterea facit, videtur, ex eorum mente, esse novarum illarum virium infusio, de qua antea locuti sunt.
