Irenaeus Against Heresies V4 is a book written by Irenaeus, a prominent early Christian theologian and bishop of the second century. The book is a continuation of his previous works, in which he refutes various heretical teachings and defends orthodox Christian doctrines. In this volume, Irenaeus focuses on the Gnostic heresy, which he considers to be a dangerous threat to the Christian faith. He argues against the Gnostic belief in a secret knowledge that only a select few can attain, and instead emphasizes the importance of the public revelation of God's truth through the scriptures and the teachings of the apostles. Irenaeus also addresses other heretical teachings, such as the denial of the resurrection of the body and the belief in multiple gods. Throughout the book, Irenaeus draws on his extensive knowledge of scripture and his understanding of the early Christian tradition to present a compelling defense of orthodox Christianity. The book is a valuable resource for scholars and theologians interested in the early development of Christian theology and the challenges faced by the early Church.3. And teaching this very thing, He said to the Jews: Your father Abraham rejoiced that he should see my day; and he saw it, and was glad(5) What is intended? Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness.(6) In the first place, [he believed] that He was the maker of heaven and earth, the only God; and in the next place, that He would make his seed as the stars of heaven. This is what is meant by Paul, [when he says, ] as lights in the world.(7) Righteously, therefore, having left his earthly kindred, he followed the Word of God, walking as a pilgrim with the Word, that he might [afterwards] have his abode with the Word.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
