3.  There is going on among you a movement ruinous to the faith, disloyal to the apostolical and evangelical dogmas, disloyal too to the tradition of Gregory the truly great, i.e.Gregory Thaumaturgus.  cf. note on p. 247. and of his successors up to the blessed Musonius, whose teaching is still ringing in your ears. Musonius, bp. of Neocæsarea, who died in 368.  cf. Ep. xxviii.  For those men, who, from fear of confutation, are forging figments against me, are endeavouring to renew the old mischief of Sabellius, started long ago, and extinguished by the tradition of the great Gregory.  But do you bid goodbye to those wine-laden heads, bemuddled by the swelling fumes that mount from their debauch, and from me who am wide awake and from fear of God cannot keep silence, hear what plague is rife among you.  Sabellianism is Judaism cf. De Sp. S. § 77, p. 49and Ep. clxxxix. p. 229. imported into the preaching of the Gospel under the guise of Christianity.  For if a man calls Father Son and Holy Ghost one thing of many faces, ἓν πρᾶγμα πολύπροσωπον .  Another ms. reading is πολυώνυμον, “of many names.” and makes the hypostasis of the three one, cf. note on p. 195. what is this but to deny the everlasting pre-existence of the Only begotten?  He denies too the Lord’s sojourn among men in the incarnation, οἰκονομικήν. the going down into hell, the resurrection, the judgment; he denies also the proper operations of the Spirit.  And I hear that even rasher innovations than those of the foolish Sabellius are now ventured on among you.  It is said, and that on the evidence of ear witnesses, that your clever men go to such an extreme as to say that there is no tradition of the name of the Only-begotten, while of the name of the adversary there is; and at this they are highly delighted and elated, as though it were a discovery of their own.  For it is said, “I came in my Father’s name and ye received me not; if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive.” John v. 43.  Slightly varied.  And because it is said, “Go ye and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost,” Matt. xxviii. 19. it is obvious, they urge, that the name is one, for it is not “in the names,” but “in the name.”
