Colossians 2:8 Douay-Rheims

Beware lest any man cheat you by philosophy, and vain deceit; according to the tradition of men, according to the elements of the world, and not according to Christ:

Hippolytus of Rome

c. A.D. 170–235 Patristic

For it seems expedient that we, making an onslaught upon the opinion which constitutes the prime source of (contemporaneous) evils, should prove what are the originating principles.
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit.
