Achillas succeeded Peter as Patriarch, and in course of time, yielding to the entreaties of Arius and deceived by his apparent good faith, he received him back into the fold and gave him charge of one of the largest churches in Alexandria in a district called Baukalis. Tall and striking in appearance, with a certain eloquence and a great pretense of holiness, Arius soon became a popular preacher.
"In teaching that Christ was the Eternal Son of God," said the priest of Baukalis, "Alexander and his clergy made a great mistake. Since Christ was the creation of God the Father, how could He Himself be God?" It was a heresy that struck at the very roots of Christianity. Alexander remembered, too late, the warning of Peter.
