Jeremiah18:6
Ver. 6. O houſe of Iſrael, cannot I do with you] Make you or mar you at my pleaſure: have I not an abſolute ſoveraignty over you, that ye lift up the heel againſt me, and awake my power by your provocations?
As the clay is in the Potters hand] What then hath vain man to vaunt of? or why ſhould any proud Arminian ſay, Quod potui, miſerentis eſt Dei: quod volui, Grevinchovius. id meae est poteſtatis? That I can do good, is of Gods mercy: that I will do it, is merely in mine own power? This man was ſure his own Potter: and not willing to owe overmuch of himſelf to God.
