Controversies, I confess, are necessary, the tongues necessary, Histories necessary, Philosophy and the Arts necessary, other Knowledge of all sorts necessary in the Church: for Truth must be maintained, Scripture-phrases opened, Heresie confuted, the mouths of Adversaries stopped, Schisms and Novelties suppressed. |
