Book Description

Excerpt from Select Letters of Our Very Reverend Fathers General, Vol. 1: To the Fathers and Brothers of the Society of Jesus As our Society has been destined by divine Providence to be one of the most powerful instruments for repairing the evils of heresy, it seems to me that the rapid progress made by the heretics in spreading the poison of their evil doctrine, and the new measures which they are taking day by day to advance their interests, Should make us solicitous to provide remedies not only good in themselves, but of ready and far-reaching application. Especially among the Northern nations would these remedies enable us speedily to pre serve what is still sound, and to cure what is already infested by the plague of heresy.
