单词 | donatist |
释义 | Donatistn. Church History. a. One of a sect of Christians which arose in North Africa in the year 311, out of a dispute about the election of Cæcilian as bishop of Carthage, in place of whom they elected Majorinus; they maintained that their own party was the only true and pure church, and that the baptisms and ordinations of others were invalid. It is uncertain whether the name was derived from Donatus of Casæ Nigræ, a leading supporter of Majorinus, or from Donatus the Great, who succeeded Majorinus as bishop of Carthage.
