Help with finding St. Basil quote

[searn77]

I would really like to read the following quote from St. Basil the Great in its full context but I'm having problems locating it. Does anyone know where online I can read the full letter/epistle/whatever where this quote is from? I have had no luck googling it and thought maybe I could find it on the Catholic New Advent website but I haven't been able to find it yet.

"As for all those who pretend to confess sound Orthodox Faith, but are in communion with people who hold a different opinion, if they are forewarned and still remain stubborn, you must not only not be in communion with them, but you must not even call them brothers." (Patrologia Orientalis, Vol. 17, p. 303)

This appears to be the page - http://archive.org/stream/patrologiaorient17pariuoft#page/300/mode/1up - but the quote you have is not on it. It claims to be Volume 17, but perhaps the reference is to the original page 300. This page 300 is ½ original text and ½ English and the reference at the top is "John of Ephesus". At least from that link you might be able to navigate to the right page.

Thank you father! I'll definitely check it out.

That quotation could be quite useful to be able to quote with a confirmed link or
source to cite for skeptics !

Please do share if you find specific information.

I agree with Barbara; this quote and its source would be invaluable.

Amen, that is a fabulous quote. I will ask around and see if anyone I know can tell me what is the original work.
