Du baptême contre les Donatistes

16.

Nous savons qu’il n’y a qu’un seul « baptême, lequel se trouve dans l’Eglise catholique. Nous ne devons donc admettre un hérétique qu’à la condition qu’il aura été baptisé parmi nous, car autrement il pourrait croire qu’il a été baptisé hors de l’Eglise catholique ».

16.

Jader of Midila 1 said: "We know that there is but one baptism in the Catholic Church, and therefore we ought not to admit a heretic unless he has been baptized in our body, lest he should think that he has been baptized outside the Catholic Church." 2
