St. Irenaeus of Lyon – AD189
- Believed Jesus was divine, the Son of
God, and was also human.
The Church . . . has received from the
apostles and their disciples this faith: [She believes] in one God,
the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all
things that are in them; and in one Christ Jesus, the Son of God, who
became incarnate for our salvation; and in the Holy Spirit . . . .
(Against Heresies, 1:10:1 ).
- List the four canonical gospels as the
only ones originating with the Apostles
It is not possible that the Gospels can
be either more or fewer in number than they are [namely four]. (Ibid
3:11:8)
- Rejects those who say Jesus was NOT
human on the basis of unacceptable scripture.
[Marcion] mutilates the Gospel which is
according to Luke, removing all that is written respecting the
generation of the Lord, and setting aside a great deal of the teaching
of the Lord, in which the Lord is recorded as most clearly confessing
that the maker of this universe is His Father (Ibid., 1:27)
