Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers: Series I/Volume IV/Donatist Controversy/On Baptism/Book VII/Chapter 28

54.&#160; Another Saturninus of Abitini said:&#160; "If Antichrist can give to any one the grace of Christ, then can heretics also baptize, who are called Antichrists."

55.&#160; What if another were to say, If a murderer can give the grace of Christ, then can they also baptize that hate their brethren who are called murderers?&#160; For certainly he would seem in a way to speak the truth, and yet they can baptize; in like manner, therefore, can the heretics as well.
