Clearly these Enlightened and Blessed men, receiving from on High this Revelation, promulgated the decision taught by God. brought together all their pastoral science, and when they had stirred their most Righteous Anger now Justifiably, they drove out with the sling of the Holy Spirit the offensive and corruptive wolves, and from the complement of the Church of Christ they expelled them all, as having fallen mortally and as being ill and incurable.
