A second moment of suspicion against Molinos arose in 1681. In March 1680, the Jesuit preacher Paolo Segneri, a renowned doctor of ascetical theology, wrote to Oliva, proposing a book defending meditation against the quietists’ teaching. Oliva encouraged him and forwarded copies of the letters he had recently sent to Molinos. Later in 1680, a book was published in Florence, titled "Concordia tra la fatica e la quiete nell' orazione" ("Agreement Between Effort and Quiet in Prayer"), with Oliva’s name signed as imprimatur. The book attacked Molinos’s views, though without mentioning his name.
