On Baptism, Against the Donatists.
Chapter 19.—32. Felix of Bagai said: As when the blind leads the blind, both fall into the ditch,
Chapter 37.—71. Libosus of Vaga said: The Lord says in the gospel, ‘I am the truth ’
Chapter 10.—18. Likewise another Felix of Marazana said: There is one faith, one baptism,
Chapter 14.—26. Aymnius of Ausuaga
Chapter 26.—50. Also another Lucius of Membresa said: It is written, ‘God heareth not sinners.’
Chapter 10.—18. Likewise another Felix of Marazana638 Marazana was in ecclesiastical province of Byzacene. On Felix, see Bk. VI. c. 19. note 2. said: "There is one faith, one baptism,639 Eph. iv. 5. but of the Catholic Church, to which alone is given authority to baptize."640 Conc. Carth. sec. 46.
19. What if another were to say as follows: One faith, one baptism, but of the righteous only, to whom alone authority is given to baptize? As these words might be refuted, so also may the judgment of Felix be refuted. Do even the unrighteous who are not641 Nec…mutati. "Nec" is restored by the Benedictines from the Mss. changed in heart in baptism, while "they renounce the world in words and not in deeds" yet belong to the members of the Church? Let them consider whether such a Church is the actual rock, the very dove, the bride herself without spot or wrinkle.642 Eph. v. 27. See Retract. ii. 18, quoted on I. 17, 26.
