|description=Baptism and the Eucharist have their direct origin in pagan Egypt. There the “waters of purification” were used (the Mithraic font for baptism being borrowed by the Persians from the Egyptians) and so were bread and wine. “Wine in the Dionysiak cult, a in the Christian religion, represents that blood which in different senses is the life of the world” (Brown, in the ''Dionysiak Myth''). Justin Martyr says, “In imitation of which the devil did the like in the Mysteries of Mithras, for you either know or may ''know that they also take bread and a cup of water ''in the sacrifices of those that are initiated and ''pronounce certain words over it”''.
