Irenaeus, who lived in the second century, is usually considered the first systematic theologian in the history of the church. In this powerful work, he refutes Gnosticism and Montanism, emphasizing both a bodily resurrection and the glorification of all the redeemed. A seminal, must-read work. 201 pages, hardcover. Paulist.

In this book St. Irenaeus of Lyons refutes the gnosis of the Valentinians and the Marcionites from reason.
