Œuvres Augustin d'Hippone (354-430) The Seven Books of Augustin, Bishop of Hippo On Baptism, Against the Donatists
Book VI.
Chapter 33.

63.

Another Felix of Uthina 1 said: "No one can doubt, most holy brethren in the priesthood, that human presumption has not so much power as the adorable and venerable majesty of our Lord Jesus Christ. Remembering then the danger, we ought not only to observe this ourselves, but to confirm it by our general consent, that all heretics who come to the bosom of our mother the Church be baptized, that the heretical mind, which has been polluted by long-continued corruption, may be reformed when cleansed by the sanctification of the laver." 2


  1. Uthina was in ecclesiastical province of Zeugitana. This Felix is to be distinguished from the bishop of Bagai, ch. 19: A reference to a bishop of Utina is made by Tert. de Monog. ch. xii., but he cannot have been this Felix, as some assume. ↩

  2. Conc. Carth. sec. 26. ↩
