'''Saint Irenaeus''' (c. 130 – c. 202) was a Greek [[bishop]] and [[theologian]], renowned as a Father of the [[Roman Catholic Church]] for his defense of Christian orthodoxy against Gnosticism. Born in [[Smyrna]], [[Asia Minor]], he studied under [[Saint Polycarp]], a disciple of the Apostle John. As [[Bishop of Lugdunum]] (modern Lyon), Irenaeus wrote influential works, notably *Against Heresies*, which refuted Gnostic teachings and articulated early Christian doctrine. His efforts strengthened the Church’s theological foundation. Canonized pre-Congregation, he is venerated for his apologetics and fidelity.<ref name="catholicsaints">{{cite web |title=Saint Irenaeus |url=https://catholicsaints.info/saint-irenaeus/ |publisher=CatholicSaints.Info |accessdate=18 May 2025}}</ref> | '''Saint Irenaeus''' (c. 130 – c. 202) was a Greek [[bishop]] and [[theologian]], renowned as a Father of the [[Roman Catholic Church]] for his defense of Christian orthodoxy against Gnosticism.
