Theophilus of Antioch, 180, Water Baptism
MHFM: This is a good quote from early Church father Theophilus, Bishop of Antioch, in the year 180. In it he teaches baptismal regeneration and that all who are saved receive water baptism.
St. Theophilus of Antioch (AD 180): “Moreover, the things that come from the waters [Genesis 1] were blessed by God, in order that this might be a sign that people were going to receive repentance and forgiveness of sins through water and the ‘bath of regeneration’ [παλιγγενεσἰας] [Titus 3:5], namely all those who come to the truth and are born again [ἀναγεννωμένoυς] and receive a blessing from God.” (To Autolycus 2.16)
