Excerpt from Compendio de Historia de los Valdenses: Contiene una Relación Detallada de Sus Colonias en América y Numerosos Grabados
Los Valdenses fueron humildes, menospreciados, perseguidos; pero nos proporcionan nobles ejemplos de fe, perseverancia y resignación en los trances más dolorosos y amargos. Su historia nos demue stra la fidelidad de Dios hacia los humildes de su iglesia, la sabiduría de sus planes y sus cuidados, el poder que desplegó el día que quiso libertarlos, y los consuelos que concede en la aflicción. No parece sino que Dios escogió lo necio del mundo para confundir a los sabios, lo débil para avergon¿ zar lo fuerte, para que ninguna carne se jacte en su presencia.
