Pope Gregory XVI condemning the Waldensians as sons of Belial
Spirituality
St. Alphonsus (c. 1755): “God, says St. James, resists the proud, and gives grace to the humble (James 4:6). The Lord has promised to hear the prayers of all… [But] The proud he hears not; according to the Apostle, he resists their petitions. But to the humble he is liberal beyond measure… ‘Give me, O Lord’, exclaims St. Augustine, ‘the treasure of humility’… St. Teresa relates of herself, that the greatest graces that she received from God were infused into her soul when she humbled herself most before the Lord in prayer.”
Doctrine
Pope Gregory XVI, Mirari Vos (# 19), Aug. 15, 1832: “Here surely belong the infamous and wild plans of the Waldensians, the Beghards, the Wycliffites, and other such sons of Belial, who were the sores and disgrace of the human race; they often received a richly deserved anathema from the Holy See.”
