Small things too — sparrows and hairs; Matt 10
Same create/presence arguments cover small things.
God cares for the least.
Matt 10 : sparrow / numbered hairs.
Latin XIX. Sed argumenta, quae modo attulimus, probant Deum non minus res parvas ac tenues, quam magnas & graves nosse: Etenim Deus non minus res parvas quam magnas condidit. Non minus parvis, quam magnis rebus adest, & intime praesens est. Adeoque minimarum etiam rerum curam gerit. Nam ne unus quidem passerculus in terram cadit sine patre nostro, id est, sine ejus scitu atque permissu. Et etiam capitis nostri capilli omnes numerati sunt, ut docet Christus Matth. cap. 10. 29. 30.

About this text Le Blanc wrote in the mid-seventeenth century as Reformed professor at the Academy of Sedan. This is not a patristic work.
Louis Le Blanc, a Reformed professor at Sedan, sets out theology in theses argued against Rome: Scripture, faith, grace, free choice, good works and the saints.
This volume holds the Theses on Theology I–XLIII and On Faith I–XXII, in eighteen sections.
Louis Le Blanc de Beaulieu (1614–1675) was minister and professor of theology at the Academy of Sedan, the Reformed school on France's eastern border. His Theses were disputed by students over many years and collected in a London folio (1675).
The Theological Theses range across the whole Reformed system — Scripture, God, predestination, grace, and justifying faith — in the crisp thesis-and-proof form of the seventeenth-century schools.
Date 1675 AD (Sedan theses; London collection)
No modern English.
