40. | King of the Vandals to write an
exposition of the catholic faith and especially to discuss the meaning
of the word Homoousian, with the consent of all the bishops and
confessors of Mauritania in Africa and Sardinia and Corsica, who had
remained in the catholic faith, composed a book of faith, fortified not
only by quotations from the Holy Scriptures but by testimonies of the
Fathers, and sent it by his companions in confession. But now, exiled
as a reward for his faithful tongue, like an anxious shepherd over his sheep he
has left behind works urging them to remember the faith and the one
sacred baptism to be preserved at all hazards. He also wrote out the
Discussions which he held through messengers with the leaders of
the Arians and sent them to be given to Huneric by his major domo.
Likewise also he presented to the same, petitions for the peace of the
Christians which were of the nature of an Apology, and he is
said to be still living for the strengthening of the
church.E.C.F. INDEX & SEARCH
