H Part Ii. ii. candidates for Baptism, not against either of the contending parties in the Church but against irreverent speculation, in whatever quarter it might arise. On the theology of the Holy Spirit, therefore, he is far from explicit; but of the work of the Spirit no writer of the fourth century has spoken more fully or convincingly.
