Not the Christian religion only, but nature herself, cries out against the state of slavery.
Pope Leo X
Image
Arise, O Lord, and judge your own cause. Remember your reproaches to those who are filled with foolishness all through the day. Listen to our prayers, for foxes have arisen seeking to destroy the vineyard whose winepress you alone have trod.
Pope Leo X
Image
To deny that in a child after baptism sin remains is to treat with contempt both Paul and Christ.
Pope Leo X
Image
No person shall preach without the permission of his Superior. All preachers shall explain the Gospel according to the Fathers. They shall not explain futurity or the times of Antichrist!
