Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Biography of the Early Church In every department of the history of the objects of human study, there is some critical point at which the mind of the reader is suddenly struck with the novel view presented to it, and pushes forward with that impatient interest which is excited by the first apprehension of the unravelling of a well-constructed plot in a play or story. What a scene for instance is opened at once to him who investigates the his tory of moral philosophy, when he bursts upon the period when Socrates changed the whole aim of Greek research by calling it down from airy specu lations on the nature of the Deity to substantial considerations on the duties of man!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Studies in Early Church History The period of which these studies treat extends from the time of Christ to the reign of Constantine, the first Christian Roman Emperor. This era has been called, The Heroic Age of the Church It was during these three hundred years that Christianity encountered the bitter hostility of the Roman and Greek religions and systems of philosophy and was under the ban of the civil power. It was then that it formulated its doctrines, set forth its principles, wrote its New Testament books and endured its fiery persecutions. In the enthusiasm and freshness of their faith, its converts dared all things; no tasks were too hard, no hardships too great and no tortures too painful, when called for in the name of Jesus Christ, the Lord and Saviour.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Faith and Life of the Early Church: An Introduction to Church History The following work does not profess to be a complete and detailed history of Christianity in the first century. Its design is, rather, to investigate those features of the history which arc of importance and interest at the present time. Since related subjects had to be discussed in separate chapters, some repetition was unavoidable: some questions which can scarcely be called secondary have had to yield to the demand for brevity. It is hoped, however, that no really essential element belonging to the subject has been entirely overlooked.

This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Church History to A. D. 313, Vol. 1 of 2 IN the present work the writer's aim is to trace the growth of Christianity in its connexion with the general history of the time, indicating the lines of thought, and noting the forces that made for change, but without any attempt to give an ex haustive account. For this reason the subjects are taken in a roughly chronological order and since the history concerns the general reader as well as the student of Theology, the original languages are almost entirely excluded from the text, and only a few books are named after each chapter for further study. In a word, the work is a narrative, not a repertory of facts and writers on the facts like von Schubert's excellent Kirchengeschichte.

They wandered about, being often destitute, afflicted, and tormented (of whom the world was not worthy). They wandered in deserts and in mountains, and they sheltered in dens and caves of the earth.
