1Again, he saith in another place. That the gift of the holy Ghost, to wit, the love of God shed abroad in our hearts by the holy Ghost is given only to those who shall reign with Christ for ever in heaven. Strangers (saith he) that is such who shall never inherit the Kingdom of heaven, have some of those things which are given to the house of God. But the gift of the holy Ghost is proper to the Saints, of which no stranger doth communicate, that is, no man that shall never inherit the Kingdom of heaven. This is wanting to all the malignant, and sons of hell, although they are baptized with the baptism of ⟨p. 21⟩Christ as Simon Magus was. Therefore he calls that a peculiar fountain of waters running down the streets of the Saints, and no where else.

- 1—Non visibilem Baptismum quem possunt habere & alieni qui regnum Dei non possidebunt, sed hoc donum commendat Spiritus sancti, quod proprium est eorum tantum, qui reg•abunt cum Christ• in aeternum.—Et poste• multa eni•s munera Dei possunt habere & alieni, &c. ipsa etiam quae domui Doi data sunt▪ nonnulla ex eis habent alieni, id est, non possessuri regnum Dei, &c. Hoc est ergo donum spiritus sancti proprium sanctorum, unde nem communicat alienus. Hoc deest omnibus malignis & gehennae filiis, etiamst christi baptism baptizentur, sicut Simon uerat baptizatus, &c. Aug. de unitato Eccl. cap. 23.
