About this book
Chapter by chapter, James Beaven draws together what Irenaeus, bishop of Lyons in the second century, taught on the Trinity, the origin of evil, baptism, the Eucharist, justification, the creed and Scripture, and prints the relevant passages beside his statements. A clergyman of the Church of England writing in 1841 for students of theology, he wanted the testimony of the Father to be easier to consult. The last chapter turns to the Gnostic teachers Irenaeus opposed, from Simon Magus to Valentinus, and the book is dedicated to Edward Burton, Regius Professor of Divinity at Oxford.
