The Seven Books of Augustin, Bishop of Hippo On Baptism, Against the Donatists

20.

Januarius of Lambaese 1 said: "Following the authority of the holy Scriptures, I pronounce that all heretics should be baptized, and so admitted into the holy Church." 2

  1. Lambaese (Lambese) was one of the chief cities in southern Numidia. This Januarius is not unlikely identical with the first of that name in Cypr. Ep. lxvii., and with the one of Epp. lxii. and lxx. For an opponent of Cyprian in Lambese, see Cypr. Epp. xxxvi. and lix. ↩

  2. Conc. Carth. sec. 6. ↩
