If God favoured the doctrine which destroys the Church, He would be divided against Himself. _Omne regnum divisum._[325] For Jesus Christ wrought against the devil, and destroyed his power over the heart, of which exorcism is the symbolisation, in order to establish the kingdom of God. And thus He adds, _Si in digito Dei ... regnum Dei ad vos_.[326]
