"I do not fear Satan half so much as I fear those who fear him.”
I appreciate that translating into the English language, from the original Spanish can produce variations..likewise, translating from the Latin language, into English can produce variations...I have consulted the original Latin Franciscan rules of Francis of Assisi and the best translation that I can freely provide is:
No brother should preach contrary to the formula (form) and regulations of the Church unless they have been permitted by their superior . . . All the Friars . . . should preach by their deeds.
It is an historical fact of life that in past centuries the church authorities burnt dissidents at the stake.
