" When I have heard some say, Unless I find this 

 in the archives, I do not believe it is in the Gospel : 

 and I said to them, It is written : they answered me, 

 That is the question. But for me the archives are 

 Jesus Christ the inviolable archives are His cross 

 and His death and His resurrection, and the faith 

 which is through them."
