179From the Definitions Given of Sin and Will, He Overthrows the Entire Heresy
of the Manichæans. Likewise from the Just Condemnation of Evil Souls It
Follows that They are Evil Not by Nature But by Will. That Souls are Good By

of Souls are Not to Be Held to. A Class of Souls Enticing to Shameful Deeds
Having Been Conceded, It Does Not Follow that These are Evil by Nature, that
the Others are Supreme Good.
184Again It is Shown from the Utility of Repenting that Souls are Not by Nature
Evil. So Sure a Demonstration is Not Contradicted Except from the Habit of
Erring.
