Mendoza concl.3: no second providence before praedestinatio.

The one providence = predestination itself.

Everything in the universe follows from it — nothing excepted.

Latin

XIII. Unde est haec ejus tertia conclusio. Non est aliqua alia providentia in Deo antecedens praedestinationem, ex qua scilicet providentia proveniant res naturales, & quidam alii effectus supernaturales: sed unica est duntaxat providentia, ipsaque est praedestinatio, ex qua omnia in universum, nullo prorsus excepto, habent sequi.
