I speak not of their morals, and those tragical exploits with which all their lives abound, since they profess themselves to be Pharisees, who are to be heard and not imitated.

I refer to the very doctrine itself, on which they found their claim to be considered as the Church.

If you devote a portion of your leisure, Sire, to the perusal of our writings, you will clearly discover that doctrine to be a fatal pestilence of souls, the firebrand, ruin, and destruction of the Church.
Finally, they betray great want of candour, by invidiously repeating what great commotions, tumults, and contentions, have attended the preaching of our doctrine, and what effects it produces in many persons.

For it is unfair to charge it with those evils which ought to be attributed to the malice of Satan.

It is the native property of the Divine word, never to make its appearance without disturbing Satan, and rousing his opposition.
