Background on Vincent of Lérins
In his own words on 1 Corinthians
- 1 Corinthians 11:19
It is as if the apostle meant that the authors of heresies are not instantly rooted out by God, in order to make manifest those who are approved, that is, in order to make evident to what degree each one is a steadfast, faithful and firm lover of the orthodox faith.
