In about 185, Saint Irenaeus of Lyons, whose teacher Saint Polycarp of Smyrna (d. ca. 156) also knew John, spoke of the Eucharist in defending the bodily resurrection against gnosticism. “If the body be not saved,” argued the Saint, “then, in fact, neither did the Lord redeem us with His Blood; and neither is the cup of the Eucharist the partaking of His Blood nor is the Bread which we break the partaking of His Body (1 Cor. 10:16)” (Against Heresies 5:2:2).
