John Trapp on Ezekiel 18:24

Ver. 24. But when the righteous] He that is good in his own eyes, and paſſeth for good in the eſteem of others, but yet is not really righteous: if ſuch an one do utterly fall away and loſe that little that he ſeemed to have, what wonder? Common grace can never hold out, or ſtretch to eternity. Bellarmine ſaith well, That which is true grace veritate eſſentiae only, may be loſt: not that that is true veritate firmae ſoliditatis, with the truth of firm ſolidity: which latter being rightly underſtood may be called Special as the other Common grace.
