Works Augustine of Hippo (354-430) The Seven Books of Augustin, Bishop of Hippo On Baptism, Against the Donatists
Book VII.
Chapter 45.

88.

Also another Aurelius of Chullabi 1 said: "The Apostle John has laid down in his epistle the following precept: If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: for he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.' 2 How can such men be admitted without consideration into the house of God, who are forbidden to be admitted into our private house? Or how can we hold communion with them without the baptism of Christ, when, if we only so much as bid them God speed, we are partakers of their evil deeds?" 3
