Irenaeus Against Heresies V2 is a book written by Irenaeus, a prominent early Christian theologian and bishop of Lyon in the 2nd century. The book is a continuation of his earlier work, Against Heresies, and is divided into five books. In this second volume, Irenaeus focuses on the doctrines of various heretical groups that were prevalent during his time, including the Valentinians, Marcionites, and Gnostics. He critiques their beliefs and defends orthodox Christian teachings, providing a valuable insight into the early Church's struggles against heresy. Irenaeus also emphasizes the importance of the unity of the Church and the authority of the apostolic tradition. The book is a significant contribution to Christian theology and remains relevant today in its defense of orthodox Christian beliefs against heretical teachings.These arguments may, in like manner, be adapted to meet the case of all those who, in any way, maintain that the world was formed either by angels or by any other one than the true God. For the charges which they bring against the Demiurge, and those things which were made material and temporal, will in truth fall back on the Father; if indeed the(7) very things which were formed in the bosom of the Pleroma began by and by in fact to be dissolved, in accordance with the permission and good-will of the Father.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
