ℹ️ This corpus has no morphological tagging. Glosses are matched by word form against a dictionary — a match does not prove it is the same word (an inflected form can coincide with another word’s lemma). Verify against the original and a specialist lexicon where precision matters.

57:1

I. Quod per peccatum Adæ non solum corpus, sed anima etiam læsa fuerit. II. Quod peccatum Adæ non ipsi solum nocuit, ad ad posteros quoque transiit. III. Quod gratia Dei non ad invocationem detur, sed ipsa faciat ut invocetur. IV. Quod Deus ut a peccato purgemur, voluntatem nostram non exspectet, sed præparet. V. Quod initium fidei non ex nobis, sed ex gratia Dei sit. VI. Quod sine gratia Dei credentibus et petentibus misericordia non conferatur, cum gratia ipsa faciat, ut credamus et petamus. VII. Quod viribus naturæ bonum aliquid, quod ad salutem pertineat, cogitare aut eligere sine gratia non possimus. VIII. Quod per liberum arbitrium ad gratiam baptismi pervenire nullus possit. IX.

I. That through the sin of Adam not only the body, but the soul also, was harmed. II. That the sin of Adam harmed not himself alone, but passed also to his posterity. III. That the grace of God is not given at our invocation, but itself brings it about that it is invoked. IV. That God, in order that we may be cleansed from sin, does not wait upon our will, but prepares it. V. That the beginning of faith is not from ourselves, but from the grace of God. VI. That without the grace of God, mercy is not conferred upon those who believe and ask, since grace itself brings it about that we believe and ask. VII. That by the powers of nature we can neither think nor choose anything good pertaining to salvation without grace. VIII. That through free will no one is able to arrive at the grace of baptism. IX.

一、論藉亞當之罪，不僅身體，連靈魂也受了損害。二、論亞當之罪不僅害了他自己，也傳給了他的後裔。三、論神的恩典並非因人的呼求而賜下，乃是恩典本身使人呼求。四、論神為使我們得以脫罪潔淨，並不等候我們的意志，乃是預備它。五、論信德的開端不是出於我們自己，乃是出於神的恩典。六、論若無神的恩典，憐憫便不臨到那信而求的人，因為正是恩典本身使我們信而求。七、論若無恩典，我們憑本性之力，既不能思想，也不能揀選任何有關救恩的善。八、論無人能憑自由意志到達洗禮的恩典。九、
