Du baptême contre les Donatistes

44.

« Tels de nos collègues peuvent se mettre au-dessous des hérétiques, mais ils doivent nous épargner cette humiliation; ce que nous avons une fois décrété, nous y restons fidèles; voilà pourquoi nous devons baptiser les hérétiques qui reviennent à l’Eglise ».

Geminius of Furni 1 said: "Certain of our colleagues may prefer heretics to themselves, they cannot prefer them to us: and therefore what we have once decreed we hold, that we should baptize those who come to us from heretics." 2
