Fragments from the Lost Writings of Irenaeus — translated by Alexander Roberts and James Donaldson / ANF editors

¶1

“God is not as a man.” He thus shows that all men are indeed guilty of falsehood, inasmuch as they change from one thing to another (μεταφερόμενοι); but such is not the case with God, for He always continues true, perfecting whatever He wishes.
