Jesuits combined Catholic beliefs with Huguenot beliefs?
The Huguenots were the French protestants. The Jesuits were formed primarily to combat the protestant heresy.

Either way, there is no way that the Jesuits ever combined Catholic beliefs with protestant beliefs - that would give a lie to their whole reason for existing.
