Trial by Fire
St. Dominic had devoted his life to
preaching and defending the faith. Most notably was his preaching
against the Albigenses Heresy in France. During the
course of his preaching he was challenged by followers of the heresy.
A trial by fire was arranged
whereby a thesis written by St. Dominic and a disclamatory document
written by one of the heretics were thrown into a fire.
Miraculously, St. Dominic's document survived the fire. This lead to
the conversion of many of the heretics.
