“Most heresies consist in rejoicing in “profane novelties” and loathing traditional knowledge which some rejecting have made shipwreck of their faith. Conversely, it is proper for us to guard the “deposit” handed down by the holy fathers, and to condemn profane novelties.”
“O Timothy, guard the deposit entrusted to you…” 1 Tim 6:20a.
Vincent of Lerins, Monk (c. 435) in Commonitories 24. FC:7:315.
