Description: Irenaeus on the Christian Faith : A Condensation of Against Heresies, Paperback by Payton, James R., Jr., ISBN 0227680189, ISBN-13 9780227680186, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Payton (history, Redeemer U. College, Ontario) characterizes Irenaeus of Lyons (c. 130-202) as the greatest Christian theologian since the time of the apostles, and his main work, Against Heresies, as profoundly significant. It is neglected today, he says, not only because it is very long, but also because it details beliefs and practices of many branches of Gnosticism that are no longer of general interest. The condensation leaves out most of the material on Gnosticism, and focuses on Irenaeus' description of Christianity itself. Distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co.
