Eusebius. 1S. Augustine nevertheless concludeth of the words of Jesus Christ, that none can come unto eternal life, without the sacrament of baptism: but those which do shed their blood for the trueth, in the Church. But which is more, he saith: we do not believe that any Cathecumenian hath eternal life, although that he shall dye in good works, if he be not baptised or martyred. You do well know that in the ancient Church, those which had received the Gospel, and were not yet baptised, were called Catechumens, because that one 2had instructed them in the faith. And following that same matter, he saith more over. We believe that there is no way of salvation but for those that are baptised.
