"God is not as a man."
He thus shows that all men are indeed guilty of falsehood, inasmuch as they
change from one thing to another (μεταφερόμενοι); but such is not the case with
God, for He always continues true, perfecting whatever He wishes. (Fragments
from the Lost Writings of Irenaeus XXIV [ANF 1:572])
The Greek reads:
Ουχ ως ανθρωπος ο Θεος. Δεικνυσιν, ως παντες μεν ανθρωποι ψεύδονται
μεταφερομενοι ο δε Θεος ουχ ούτως αει γαρ μενει αλητης επιτελών οσα βούλεται. (PG
7:1241)
The Latin reads:
Non est Deus ut homo. Ostendit omne hominum genus mandax, qui ex alio in
aliud ferantur; non sic autem Deum: sepmer enim verus manet omnia implens
quaecunque velit. (PG 7:1242)
