Some ignorantly^ deny Him, or rather have been denied by Him, being the advocates of death rather than of the truth. These persons neither have the prophets persuaded, nor the law of Moses, nor the Gospel even to this day, nor the sufferings we have individually endured. For they think also the same thing regard- ing US.+ For what does any one profit me, if he commends me, but blasphemes my Lord, not confessing that He was [truly] possessed of a body ? 5 But he who does not ac- knowledge this, has in fact altogether denied Him, being enveloped in death.^ I have not, however, thought good to write the names of such persons, inasmuch as they are unbelievers. Yea, far be it from me to make any mention of them, until they repent and return to [a true be- lief in] Christ's passion, which is our resurrection.
