John Corbet (1620–1680) on the Salvability of All men

That the Non-Elect are not under an impossibility of being saved, is evident from the Position before proved, That the negation of God's Decree doth not infer an impossibility of the Event.
John Corbet, A Humble Endeavour of Some Plain and Brief Explication of the Decrees and Operations of God, About the Free Actions of Men: More Especially of the Operations of Divine Grace (London: Printed for Tho. Parkhurst, at the Bible and Three Crowns in Cheapside, near Mercers-Chappel, 1683), 12.
Nor doth God Decree the Salvation of men upon such Conditions, as make the Salvation of most men impossible; but the Conditions of being saved are such as do abundantly testify the Goodness of God in the salvability of men in general.
Ibid., 12.
