Epistle of Ignatius to the Antiochians And he that rejects the incarnation, and is ashamed of the cross for which I am in bonds, this man is antichrist.[24] Tertullian Against Praxeas John, moreover, brands that man as "a liar" who "denieth that Jesus is the Christ; "whilst on the other hand he declares that "every one is born of God who believeth that Jesus is the Christ."[398]
