retrievableness (uncountable)

  1. (rare) retrievability
    • 1839, Richard Treffry, Letters on the atonement, page 185:
      The notion of inherent retrievableness cannot consist with the condition of a totally fallen creature. And yet it must be by some such influence that evil is repressed, and goodness encouraged.
