Description
Excerpt from The Charity of the Church: A Proof of Her Divinity; From the Italian of His Eminence Cardinal Baluffi, Archbishop of Imola
It is not, however, what ''a writer calls the sur prising chorus of respect and approval with which this remarkable Letter of his Holiness was received that chie?y interests us. We should take the lessons it conveys deeply to heart. It tells us how the Church, from the beginning, carefully cultivated history, and religiously preserved historical records. It declares that this duty is now more imperative than ever, seeing that one of the greatest dangers that threatens the Papacy and Catholicity at the present day arises from the perversion of historical truth.
In obedience to such a call every devoted son of the Church will assist, so far as Opportunities permit, in strengthening the defences of Holy Faith against the assaults of those who deny the great benefits conferred on the world by the Sovereign Pontiffs and the Catholic Hierarchy - benefits incontrovertibly attested by history of the genuine stamp, the faithful witness of the past against errors and false statements.
