Romans11:36
Verſe 36. For of him] As the efficient cauſe, and (through him) as the adminiſtring cauſe, and (to him) as the finall cauſe are all things. A wiſe Philoſopher could ſay, That man is the end of all in a ſemicircle; that is, All things in the world are made for him, and he is made for God.
To whom be glory for ever] God (ſaith one) counts the works and fruits that come from us to be ours: becauſe the judgement and reſolution of will, whereby we do them is ours: This he doth to encourage us. But becauſe the grace whereby we judge and will aright, comes from God, aſcribe we all to him: So ſhall he looſe no praiſe, we no encouragement.
