"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."

"The torture of a bad conscience is the hell of a living soul."

"For the will is so overwhelmed by wickedness and so pervaded by vice and corruption that it cannot in any way escape to honorable exertion or devote itself to righteousness."

"God's providence is not only general, but extends to all the particular facts of life."

"For I stay not to consider the extravagance of those who say that grace is offered equally and promiscuously to all."
