"God works in the hearts of men to incline their wills as he pleases."

"The reprobate, though they have the outward call of the Gospel, yet are not inwardly illuminated by the Spirit."

"For we do not say that man is dragged unwillingly into sinning, but that because his will is corrupt he is held captive under the yoke of sin and therefore of necessity wills in an evil way."

"Whence it is sufficiently plain that they are not chosen for their own merit, but because God has gratuitously chosen them."

"The most perfect way of worshiping God is to live a holy life."
