and judge the earth; for Thou shall receive all the heathen for Thine inheritance.”324 The
Father, therefore, who raised Him up, will also raise us up through Him, apart from whom
no one will attain to true life. For says He, “I am the life; he that believeth in me, even though
he die, shall live: and every one that liveth and believeth in me, even though he die, shall
live for ever.”325 Do ye therefore flee from these ungodly heresies; for they are the inventions
of the devil, that serpent who was the author of evil, and who by means of the woman de-
ceived Adam, the father of our race.
