Luke 8:4 Douay-Rheims

And when a very great multitude was gathered together, and hastened out of the cities unto him, he spoke by a similitude.

Gregory of Nazianzus

A.D. 329–390 Patristic

(ubi sup.) When you hear this you must not entertain the notion of different natures, as certain heretics do, who think that some men indeed are of a perishing nature, others of a saving nature, but that some are so constituted that their will leads them to better or worse. But add to the words, To you it is given, if willing and truly worthy.
