Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heresy and Christian Doctrine This Volume - "Heresy and Christian Doctrine," now introduced for the first time to the English public, is the third in a consecutive series, intended to present a complete picture, from the Author's point of view, of the spiritual life and history of the Church during the first three centuries of the Christian era. The two previous volumes - "Early Years of Christianity" and "Martyrs and Apologists" - delineated chiefly the extensive growth of the Church and its conflicts with enemies without. The present volume treats rather of its intensive development and the history of its doctrines. The concluding volume of the series will appear simultaneously in English and in French. The recent pressure of political, in addition to pastoral duties, has prevented Dr. Pressense, as yet, from arranging his accumulated materials for this work. He has, however, engaged to prepare it for publication with the least possible delay. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Heresies and how to Avoid Them written by Ben Quash and published by SPCK Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What don't Christians believe? Is Jesus really divine? Is Jesus really human? Can God suffer? Can people be saved by their own efforts? The early church puzzled over these questions, ruling in some beliefs and ruling out others. Heresies and How to Avoid Them explains the principal ancient heresies and shows why contemporary Christians still need to know about them. These famous detours in Christian believing seemed plausible and attractive to many people in the past, and most can still be found in modern-day guises. By learning what it is that Christians don't believe--and why--believers today can gain a deeper, truer understanding of their faith. --! From back cover.
Download or read book Orthodoxy and Heresy written by Steven Nemes and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2022-11-17 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Orthodoxy' and 'heresy' are essential categories by which the 'Catholic' theological tradition evaluates the (im)propriety of various beliefs and practices relative to its non-negotiable commitments. This Element sketches moments in the development of Christian 'orthodoxy' and 'heresy' in time, as much in the Old and New Testament as in the history of the Church. It also touches upon the vexed theological-methodological question of the relation between Scripture and ecclesial Tradition before concluding with a critique of the 'Catholic' tradition's preoccupation with 'orthodoxy' and 'heresy' in favor of a Christian theology 'without anathemas' that is concerned only for truth.
Download or read book The Ultimate Heresy written by Rodger L. Cragun and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-12-14 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the Doctrine of Biblical Inerrancy Biblical? While theologians throughout church history have condemned numerous doctrines as heresy, Cragun boldly declares that the doctrine of biblical inerrancy is the worst heresy that the church has ever faced, resulting in the undermining of central teachings of Jesus. Treating the Bible as the inerrant word of God often eclipses the very real dimensions of hermeneutics, that is, the who, how, and why of biblical interpretation and translation. After twenty-five years of detailed research in libraries based in six major universities and seminaries, Cragun has distilled his work in this book to challenge Christians who hold up inerrancy as a key tenant of the faith.
Download or read book Damnable Heresies written by Dennis Nutter and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-07-21 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "DAMNABLE HERESIES" "But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false prophets among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of." (II Peter 2:1-2) (KJV) The beliefs that are held by most Christians today, and throughout history, are not well thought-out or arrived at by revelation after years of searching for the truth. They are, rather, arrived at by learning what those in authority believe concerning a matter and then adhering to, and even defending, those points of "doctrine" or "orthodoxy" or "tenets of the faith" for the balance of the time that one wishes to remain in fellowship with those who share and defend those same points of "faith." The purpose of this book is to provide a means for those who may be enslaved by unbiblical points of Christian doctrine that depict God as a capricious, inconsistent, despot in His dealings with mankind (despite their protests to the contrary) to consider another point of view that is backed by scripture – not just the systematic theology or dogma of a respected theologian, bible teacher, or pastor. It is also designed to help those who believe differently from the "orthodox" thinking on such issues as predestination, original sin, eternal security, and "speaking in tongues," to be affirmed in their belief and to be armed anew with reasons for the convictions of their beliefs. Some quotes from the book... "A true Christian will jealously protect the true nature and will of God as He reveals Himself to us through His Word and through His Holy Spirit. Even apparently slight distortions of the Law, the Prophets, or the Gospel (the proclamation that the Law and the Prophets are fulfilled in the birth, ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus the Christ) result in removing those who believe those distortions 'unto another gospel.'" "We have observed already in Scripture that God "...desires all men to be saved and come to the knowledge of the truth" (I Timothy 2:4). As Scripture, reason, and direct experience show us, it is our own selfish pursuit of having things our own way that shuts us away from God's salvation not His will or predetermination of our eternal condition."
Download or read book The Cruelty of Heresy written by C. FitzSimons Allison and published by Church Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 1994-01-01 with total page 183 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A scholarly review of early Christian history and its policies against heresy and lessons for today’s church leaders and reformers Ancient heresies have modern expressions that influence our churches and culture, creating cruel dilemmas for today’s Christian in the form of error, sin, and various distortions on orthodox faith. In The Cruelty of Heresy, Bishop C. FitzSimons Allison captures the drama and relevance of the Councils of the fourth and fifth centuries and shows how the remarkable achievements of these early struggles provide valuable guidelines for believers today. “Bishop Allison has combined a lifetime of scholarship and pastoral experience in this remarkable, readable work. . . . He vividly describes how the two human tendencies toward self-centeredness and escape from the difficulties of life—both very popular today—always distort the gospel. . . . Invaluable reading for any minister of the gospel, those who are preparing for Christian ministry, and all who seek a deeper understanding of authentic Christian orthodoxy.”—Joseph Cardinal Bernardin, Roman Catholic Archbishop of Chicago (1982–1996)

Download or read book The Gospel according to Heretics written by David E. Wilhite and published by Baker Academic. This book was released on 2015-10-13 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since what Christian doctrine denies can be as important as what it affirms, it is important to understand teachings about Jesus that the early church rejected. Historians now acknowledge that proponents of alternative teachings were not so much malicious malcontents as they were misguided or even misunderstood. Here a recognized expert in early Christian theology teaches orthodox Christology by explaining the false starts (heresies), making the history of theology relevant for today's church. This engaging introduction to the christological heresies is suitable for beginning students. In addition, pastors and laypeople will find it useful for apologetic purposes.
