Neander _Antignostikus_, Eng. ed. vol. II. p. 490, calls him the
representative of the Protestant spirit. In modern times, it is
perhaps sufficient to notice Harnack’s predilection, as shown in his
_Dogmengeschichte_, for Marcion and his works. Foakes-Jackson, _Some
Christian Difficulties of the Second and Twentieth Centuries_ (Hulsean
Lectures), Cambridge, 1903, pp. 19 _sqq._, thinks the study of the
controversy between Marcion and Tertullian should especially appeal to
Modernists.

He always couples Valentinus and Marcion together. Cf. _de Praescpt._
cc. XXIX., XXX. Justin Martyr, Marcion’s contemporary, says (_First
Apolog._ c. XXVI.) that “he is even now teaching men of every nation
to speak blasphemies.” Renan, _L’Égl. Chrétienne_, p. 363, thinks that
the Marcionites were “much the most numerous sect before Arius.”
