“ He cannot possess the garment of Christ who parts and divides the Church of Christ.” (Page 423)
“He who has thus made atonement to God; he who by repentance for his deed, who by shame for his sin, has conceived more both of virtue and of faith from the very grief of his fall, heard and aided by the Lord, shall make the Church which he had lately saddened glad, and shall now deserve of the Lord not only pardon, but a crown.” (Page 447)
“But how can they follow Christ, who are held back by the chain of their wealth? Or how can they seek heaven, and climb to sublime and lofty heights, who are weighed down by earthly desires? They think that they possess, when they are rather possessed; as slaves of their profit, and not lords with respect to their own money, but rather the bond-slaves of their money.” (Page 440)
“The Lord has desired His family to be proved; and because a long peace had corrupted the discipline1 that had been divinely delivered to us, the heavenly rebuke has aroused our faith, which was giving way, and I had almost said slumbering; and although we deserved2 more for our sins, yet the most merciful Lord has so moderated all things, that all which has happened has rather seemed a trial than a persecution.” (Page 438)
“Our prayer is public and common; and when we pray, we pray not for one, but for the whole people, because we the whole people are one.” (Page 449)
