Правило 47 Василия Великого
Machine translation from the original · Show original
The Encratites, Saccophori and Apotactites are subject to the same judgment as the Navatians: for about some of these a rule has been issued, although not uniform, but about others it is silent: we, according to the same wine-making, re-baptize them. And although this custom of rebaptism is not accepted among you, like the Romans, for some reason: nevertheless, let our winemaking be valid. since their heresy is, as it were, a branch of the heresy of the Marcionites, who abhor marriage, abhor wine and call God’s creation unclean. Therefore, we do not accept them into the church unless they are baptized with our baptism. For let them not say that they were baptized into the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, when they, like Marcion and other heretics, represent God as the creator of evil. And so, if this pleases, then many bishops should gather together and lay down the rule in such a way that the one acting would be safe, and the one answering the question about such would have a reliable basis for the answer.
(Ap. 46, 47, 48; I Ev. 8, 19; II Ev. 7; Trul. 95; Laod. 7, 8; Carth. 57; Basil Vel. 1, 5).
Basil the Great speaks about the Encratites and other heretics mentioned in this rule in his 1st rule, and notes that they must be baptized when they convert to the Orthodox Church. However, he adds that this is his personal opinion, and the canonical order on this will be issued by the council of bishops, which is in charge of such issues. This canonical injunction was issued by the second ecumenical council, which met two years after the death of Basil the Great, determining exactly which heretics should be baptized upon entering the church and which should not (II Ecumenical 7).
