The meekness of St. Francis should be held up to the faithful in a very special way for their imitation, for this virtue recalls to our minds so well and expresses so truly the kindness of Jesus Christ. 22. Although at times his language appears to be somewhat strong, nevertheless, as even his opponents admitted, his writings always breathe a spirit of charity which was ever the controlling motive in every controversy in which he engaged. (Acts i, 1). Alii enim, operosis negotiis implicati, nihil curant nisi de pecunia congerenda, dum animus misere esurit; alii vero, voluptatibus dediti, sic se abiiciunt in terram, ut gustatus earum rerum, quae supra sensus sunt, obtundatur in iis atque hebescat; alii denique ad tractandam accedunt rem publicam, de civitate quidem solliciti, at sui ipsorum immemores. Iam videamus, Venerabiles Fratres, quemadmodum Salesius, cum se ipse praeberet amabile exemplum sanctitatis, idem tutam expeditamque omnibus christianae perfectionis viam scribendo commonstraverit, atque ut, in hac quoque re, Iesum Dominum, qui coepit facere et docere (9), imitatus esse videatur. Quod quidem admodum ea facit suae ipsius naturae congruenter, cum a Christo auctore suo sancta constituta sit et sanctitatis effectrix, cumque omnes, qui ea duce magistraque utuntur, ex Dei voluntate ad vitae sanctimoniam niti debeant. In the first place, he proves that no authority can be said to exist in the Church of Christ unless it had been bestowed on her by an authoritative mandate, which mandate the ministers of heretical beliefs in no way can be said to possess. Rerum Omnium Perturbationem "All the Disturbing Things" St. Francis De Sales: 26 January 1923: 3. In truth, the many explanations of doctrine and the arguments which he has marshaled in orderly array, are worthy of all praise. He also explains in a sound manner the Rule of Faith and demonstrates that it is broken by heretics, while on the other hand it is kept in its entirety by Catholics. Quae eius mansuetudo, quemadmodum ad universos pertinebat, sic nullo unquam tempore, nec in prosperis nec in adversis rebus, factum est ut deficeret; eum igitur, quantumcumque divexarent, nunquam haeretici eo minus comem sibi facilemque experti sunt. Apostolic Letter: 1922.08.06: Ora sono pochi On the Day of the 'March on Rome' Apostolic Letter: 1922.10.28: Ad Musicæ Sacræ Statutes of the Pontifical Institute of Sacred Music. It was by such means as these that he finally overcame the resistance of his most formidable adversaries. RERUM OMNIUM PERTURBATIONEM (St. Francis de Sales) On Episcopal Meetings. Sed enim vel in controversiarum libro eandem animi effusionem reperire licet eundemque illum spiritum, quo redundant opera ad fovendam pietatem ab eo confecta; oratio autem tam elegans, tam urbana, tam bene ad persuadendum composita, ut ipsi haeresis administri asseclas suos soliti essent admonere, ne Genevensis missionalis blandimentis allici se et capi paterentur. Deinde Regulas fidei diligenter explanat, et eas violari ab haereticis, apud nos autem sancte custodiri ostendit ; peculiares denique tractatus adiicit, e quibus tamen solae exstant de Sacramentis et de Purgatorio disputationes. In the Controversies one readily perceives that same broad-mindedness and magnanimity of soul which permeate the books he wrote with the purpose of promoting piety. Studiorum ducem "On St. Thomas Aquinas" Thomas Aquinas: 29 June 1923: 4. Italy . Rerum omnium perturbationem, quae nunc adest, cum proxime in Encyclicis Litteris [2] , y consideraremus medendi gratia, vidimus in ipsis hominum animis inhaerere malum, eiusque sanationem tum demum sperari posse si Iesu Christi medica per Ecclesiam sanctam manus invocetur. On the Need for Civil Sovereignty. Ita sane Franciscus contionabatur, ut eius praedicatio tota esset in ostensione spiritus et virtutis, cum, ex Bibliis et Patribus hausta, non modo sanis doctrinae theologicae nutrimentis aleretur, sed etiam ex caritatis delinimento mollior ac suavior exsisteret. If this were done, Christian piety certainly would flourish the world over and the Church of God could rejoice in the assurance of a widespread attainment of holiness by her children. ENCYCLICAL OF POPE PIUS XI. Others give themselves up entirely to the satisfaction of their passions and thus fall so low that they, with difficulty if at all, are able to appreciate anything which transcends the life of sense. May it please God that this book, the most perfect of its kind in the opinion of contemporaries of the Saint, be read now as it formerly was by practically every one. (finance) The aggregate value of the differ… He was accustomed to repeat to himself, as a source of inspiration, that well known phrase, "Apostles battle by their sufferings and triumph only in death." Rerum Omnium Perturbationem: On St. Frances de Sales (Pius XI, 1923) Sacerdotii Nostri Primordia: On Saint John Vianney (John XXIII, 1963) Sacra Virginitas: On Consecrated Virginity (1954) Saeculo Exeunte Octavo: On the Independence of Portugal (1940) Saepe Nos: On Boycotting in Ireland (1888) Sancta Dei Civitas: On Mission Societies (1880) It is Our wish that the greatest fruits should be gained from this solemn Centenary by those Catholics who as journalists and writers expound, spread, and defend the doctrines of the Church. Encyclica. Particularly We are most desirous that you do all in your power to call back the faithful to their duty of practicing the obligations and virtues proper to each one's state in life, since even in our own times the number is very large who never think of eternity and who neglect almost totally the salvation of their souls. Ne vero Anneciense Visitationis Coenobium, ubi Salesius requiescit — cuius quidem ante venerabile corpus Nos olim incredibili cum voluptate animi Sacrum fecimus — itemque Tarvisinum, in quo cor eius adservatur, ceteraeque Monialium a Visitatione familiae peculiari aliqua careant benignitatis Nostrae significatione, damus, ut quicumque, per sacra menstrua, quae ipsaemet in gratiarum actionem hoc anno habebunt, praetereaque die octavo ac vicesimo mensis Decembris, pariter hoc tantum anno, earum ecclesias de more inviserint atque, poenitentia expiati et Eucharisticis dapibus refecti, ad mentem Nostram oraverint, plenariam item veniam acquirant. To accomplish this work, he refused no duty whatsoever, he fled no danger, not even that of possible death. The circumstances surrounding the mission of St. Francis to La Chablais are well known to you, Venerable Brothers, for when, towards the close of 1593, as we learn from history, the Duke of Savoy concluded a truce with the inhabitants of Berne and Geneva, nothing was thought more important in order to reconcile the population to the Church than to send them zealous and learned preachers who, by the persuasive force of their eloquence, would slowly but surely win back these people to their allegiance to the Faith. Deinde, hoc polito, peculiarem aliquam deligendam nobis esse virtutem, ad quam sine intermissione contendamus donec eius compotes simus, tum de singulis virtutibus agit, de decentia, de honestis probrosisque colloquiis, de licitis periculosisque oblectamentis, de fidelitate erga Deum retinenda, deque coniugum, viduarum virginumque officiis. This is so true that even when he reproached these erring children for their apostasy from the Catholic Church, it is evident that he had no other purpose in mind than to open wide the gates by which they might return to the Faith. 34. They … Pope Pius XI, Rerum Omnium Perturbationem (On St. Francis de Sales). Eo etiam maioris momenti ac ponderis est Tractatus de amore Dei, in quo sanctus Doctor, quasi quandam Dei caritatis historiam scribere aggressus, narrat quae eius fuerit origo et quae progressiones, atque etiam quare in animis hominum defervescere ac languere coeperit; tradit deinceps, quomodo in ea exerceamur ac proficiamus. Officiorum omnium On seminaries and universities: Apostolic Letter: 1922.08.01: I disordini For the re-establishment of religious peace in Italy. Gladly We will try to fulfill this as well as the other wishes of Our Predecessor, for We look upon them as a sacred heritage left Us by him. Etenim haec tanta cohibenda est intemperantia cupiditatum, quae, bellorum litiumque causa princeps, sicut communem vitae consuetudinem, ita nationum commercia perverta; deducendae simul a fluxis caducisque bonis mentes singulorum, atque ad sempiterna et immortalia, quorum incredibilis incuria plerisque incessit, convertendae. (I Thess. XV (1923), n. 2, pp. (Judges xiv, 14) Is it any wonder, then that this "pastoral kindliness" which he possessed and which, according to St. John Chrysostom "is more violent than virtue" (Homily 58 on Genesis) possessed the power to attract hearts in that very measure of success which Christ Himself has promised to the meek - "Blessed are the meek: for they shall possess the land." Currently it consists of the following six events: flying lap, points race, elimination, individual pursuit, scratch race, and time trial. This fact is proven amply by the testimony of the physicians who prepared his body for burial for when, as we read, they embalmed the body, they found his bile turned into stone which had been broken up into the smallest imaginable particles. Non enim ibi vigiliarum et psalmodiae diuturnitas, non paenitentiae vel expiationum asperitas, sed legibus tam mitibus tamque remissis obtemperatio, ut moniales etiam, quae minus valent, omnia sibi imperata explere facile possint. Iamvero in hisce Controversiis sanctus Doctor, quamquam concertatoriam quasi supellectilem superiorum aetatum commodissime adhibet, est tamen semper in disputando suus; ac, primum omnium, illud confirmat, auctoritatem in Ecclesia Christi ne cogitari quidem posse nisi legitimo mandato tributam, quo haeretici sacrorum administri prorsus careant; tum convictis eorum de Ecclesia natura erroribus, proprias verae Ecclesiae notas definit, easque demonstrat in catholica quidem Ecclesia reperiri, contra in reformata desiderari. 20. Saepe solitus memorabilem illam vocem edere: Apostoli non aliter nisi patiendo pugnant, nec nisi moriendo triumphant, vix credibile est quam impigre quamque constanter Iesu Christi causam apud Chaballicenses suos egerit : qui, ut fidei lumen christianaeque spei solacia iis afferat, per supinas valles angustosque saltus repere; defugientes inclamando persegui; inhumane repulsus, insistere; minis appetitus, ad institutum redire; e deversoriis identidem deturbatus, noctes inter frigora et nives sub divo agere: nullo adstante, operari sacris; subducentibus se fere omnibus, contionari; integram tamen retinere semper suam animi tranquillitatem, suam in ingratos homines caritatem suavissimam, qua pervicaciam adversariorum, quantumvis obfirmatam, ad extremum expugnat. The great number of souls of every condition in life, both young and old, who as history informs us have reached the zenith of Christian perfection, these saints felt in themselves the weaknesses of human nature and had to conquer the selfsame temptations as we. On Discipline for Clergy. With these arguments, to which must be added a subtle and polished irony that characterizes his controversial manner, he easily met his adversaries and defeated all their lies and fallacies. His imperturbable kindness stood him in better stead in effecting the conversion of so many thousands of people than even the broad learning and wonderful eloquence which characterized his performance of the many duties of the sacred ministry. 30. Oblata vero opportunitate, difficillimas quaestiones dilucide explanat, ut de gratia efficaci, de praedestinatione, de vocatione ad fidem; et, ne ieiuna currat oratio, eam — quae erat illius ingenii ubertas et celeritas — tam festiva iucunditate tantoque pietatis odore consperbit, ea similitudinum varietate iisque et exemplis et locis aptissimis ornat, e Scriptura sacra plerumque depromptis, ut liber non tam ex eius mente quam ex visceribus medullisque manasse videatur. Given at Rome, at St. Peter's, the twenty-sixth day of January, in the year 1923, the first of Our Pontificate. Whoever attentively reviews the life of St. Francis will discover that, from his earliest years, he was a model of sanctity. University of Ireland. Curate igitur ut in civitate honoris vestri sede et in singulis dioecesis paroeciis, per hunc annum, ad diem octavum ac vicesimum mensis Decembris, triduanae vel novendiales supplicationes fiant, in quibus divini verbi praedicatio habeatur, cum intersit quam maxime, populum de iis diligenter erudiri, quae, Salesio duce, eum ad altiora permoveant. The Treatise on the Love of God, however, is a much more important and significant book than any of the others he published. This Pontiff, in the presence of Cardinals and other learned personages, after having gone deeply into the extent of the theological knowledge of St. Francis, who was then a bishop - elect, was seized with such admiration for him that he embraced him with great affection and addressed him in the following words: "Go, Son, 'drink water out of thy own cistern, and the streams of thy own well; let thy fountains be conveyed abroad, and in the streets divide thy waters'." Like those brilliant examples of Christian perfection and wisdom to whom We have just referred, he seemed to have been sent especially by God to contend against the heresies begotten by the Reformation. Rerum omnium perturbationem "Disturbance of All Things" St. Francis De Sales: 26 January 1923: 3. Rerum omnium perturbationem é uma encíclica do papa Pio XI, promulgada em 26 de janeiro de 1923 e escrita na ocasião do tricentenário da morte de São Francisco de Sales, quem o Papa declara patrono dos jornalistas e dos operários da comunicação. Quam rem illud praeclare confirmat quod proditum memoriae est, msdicos, qui sacrum eius corpus post obitum curaverunt, in eo rite condiendo fel prope lapidescens atque in minutissimos calculos concisum invenisse: quo ex portento iudicasse, quanta vi quantoque nisu ei constare debuisset ut quinquaginta annorum spatio nativam iracundiam contineret. Quae paginarum confectio gradatim conquievit tum denique cum incolae sacris contionibus frequentissimi interesse coeperunt; schedae autem manu ipsius Sancti Doctoris scriptae et post eius obitum dissipatae, multo post in volumen collectae sunt et decessori Nostro Alexandro VII oblatae; cui postea contigit, ut eundem cum in beatorum tum in sanctorum caelitum numerum, iudicio rite absoluto, referret. ; with John Bergsma; Saint Gregory of Nyssa; Ushering in the New Year of Faith! Historically the omnium has had a variety of formats. It would be impossible to exaggerate the value of his books and pamphlets, of which We have written, to attain this purpose. In order that the celebrations attending this Centenary should turn out to be both splendid and fruitful, Venerable Brothers, it would be well that there should be supplied to your flocks all those pious helps which will lead them to honor, with the veneration which is due him, this great light of the Church. No less well known are the ease and amiability with which he received everyone. 10. Iam vero, Venerabiles Fratres, quo saecularia haec sollemnia et augustiora et fructuosiora evadant, fidelibus vestris nulla desint oportet invitamenta pietatis, ita, ut hoc praeclarum Ecclesiae lumen qua decet veneratione colant, atque, eo usi deprecatore, animum, a peccati vestigiis expiatum ac divino refectum epulo, ad sanctitatem brevi adipiscendam fortiter suaviterque dirigant. In his Controversies, although the holy Doctor made large use of the polemical literature of the past, he exhibits nevertheless a controversial method quite peculiarly his own. VENERABILES FRATRES SALUTEM ET A POSTOLICAM BENEDICTIONEM. Nonne hac cum virtute, quam recte dixeris exteriorem divinae caritatis ornatura, in domestico convictu atque etiam in civitate summa tranquillitas et concordia consistat? (Apostolic Letter of Pius IX, 16 Nov. 1877) But, We cannot afford not to speak of his work entitled Controversies, in which unquestionably there is to be found a "full and complete demonstration of the truth of the Catholic Religion." In the first place, and this the most important of all, each writer should endeavor in every way and as far as this may be possible to obtain a complete comprehension of the teachings of the Church. It is no less necessary to turn back the minds of men from the passing things of this world to those which are eternal, which latter unhappily are too often neglected by the great majority of mankind. 1. He was most partial to unfortunate prisoners whom he, by a hundred artifices of charity, sought to console during his frequent visits to the prisons. The Real Meaning of Christmas "To us, Christ is all!" See to it, therefore, that in your episcopal cities and in every parish of your dioceses that some time during the course of this year, up to December twenty-eighth inclusive, a triduum or a novena be held, during which sermons should be preached, for it is all-important that the people be well instructed in those truths which, under the guidance of St. Francis, cannot but raise the level of their spiritual lives. The atmosphere of this particular religious community is one of moderation and loving kindness in all things. It is in these heresies that we discover the beginnings of that apostasy of mankind from the Church, the sad and disastrous effects of which are deplored, even to the present hour, by every fair mind. His kindness of heart never varied, no matter who the persons were with whom he had to deal, the hour of the day, the trying circumstances he had to meet. First of all, you should make known and even explain with all diligence this encyclical both to your clergy and to the people committed to your care. One would err, however, if he imagined that such a character as St. Francis de Sales possessed was a gift of nature, bestowed on him by the grace of God "with the blessing of meekness," as we so often read to have been the case of other blessed souls. Iamvero, Venerabiles Fratres, quae peracta est superiore anno commemoratio sollemnis de nostris illis heroibus Ignatio Loyoleo, Francisco Xaverio, Philippo Nerio, Theresia a Iesu et Isidoro Agricola, qui tertio ante saeculo in album Sanctorum adscripti essent, ea non parum visa est ad christianae vitae studium in populo excitandum valuisse. Franciscum Salesium dicimus, Episcopum Genevensem et Ecclesiae Doctorem; qui quidem, non secus atque illa christianae perfectionis sapientiaeque lumina quae memoravimus; videtur oppositus esse a Deo Novatorum haeresi, unde illa exorta est humanae societatis ab Ecclesia defectio, de cuius tristibus acerbisque eventibus hodie optimus quisque merito conqueritur. Illud enim praecipue Nobis in optatis est, ut fideles ad sanctitatis uniuscuiusque propriae colendae officium revocetis, cum nimis multi sint qui vel nunquam de vita aeterna recogitent vel salutem animae suae prorsus neglegant. 2. Haec est voluntas Dei, ait Paulus (1), sanctificatio vestra; quam quidem cuius generis esse oporteat, Dominus ipse sic declarat: Estote ergo vos perfecti, sicut et pater vester caelestis perfectus est (2). Since he had vowed to take as his model Jesus Who has said, "Learn of me, because I am meek, and humble of heart" (Matt. Ecclesia vero huiusmodi sanctificationis opus apud universos omnes felicissime persequitur, quoties, Dei beneficio ac munere, ei contingit alios ex aliis egregios filios ad imitandum vulgo proponere, qui in omnium exercitatione virtutum admirabiles exstiterunt. This work of spreading about leaflets, however, gradually decreased and ceased altogether when the people of these parts in large numbers began to attend his sermons. *A.A.S., vol.
