Pope St. Victor, Decretalia ad Episcopos Per Africam Constitutos: “Victor, archbishop of the city of the Church of Rome to all the Bishops throughout Africa, constituted in the Lord, salvation.
 Truly the preordained reparation of mankind always remained immutably in the eternal plan of God, but the order of things through our Lord Jesus Christ in time assumed the commencement of things which are to be borne by the disposition of the Divine Word. Wherefore, it behooves you, brethren, to be of one mind and to lend a helping hand, therefore not to disagree in the right faith and in the divine mysteries, but to be agreed, for although you might be few in comparison with the wicked, if however you will be agreed, by the help of the Lord you will easily overcome those plotting against you. But if you disagree, God forbid, you shall be, not overcoming, but overcome.”
