Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church and the Eastern Empire IT has often been said that the Eastern Church has no history independently Of the State; and this is so far true, that during long periods the annals of that Com munion have little else to show than lists of patriarchs. At the same time, at certain intervals episodes of great interest and importance occur, and from first to last the influence of the Church on the social and religious life of the Eastern Empire is a subject well worthy of study. To relate, however briefly, those episodes, and to trace the working of that influence, is the object of the pre sent volume. The early period, that Of the first four General Councils, belongs to the history of the Church at large, and therefore is only touched upon here as far as subsequent events depended upon it; it is the later, or Byzantine, age of the Eastern Church which we have especially to consider.

But even thus limited the subject is a vast one, far surpassing the possibility of adequate treatment in a work like this. But the object will be achieved if a wider interest be awakened in this period of Church History, and fresh attention be directed to these earlier attempts to work out problems in Church and State which are still unsolved.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Constantine the Great: The Reorganisation of the Empire and the Triumph of the Church N the following chapters, my object has been to tell the story of the Life and Times of Constan tine the Great. Whether he deserves the epithet my readers will judge for themselves; certainly his place in the select list of the immortals is not among the highest. But whether he himself was great or not, under his auspices one of the most momentous changes in the history of the world was aecom plished, and it is the first conversion of a Roman Emperor to Christianity, with all that such conver sion entailed, which makes his period so important and so well worth studying.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to Early Church History: Being a Survey of the Relations of Christianity and Paganism in the Early Roman Empire The following sketch is intended as an introduction to the study of Christianity in its earlier stages of progress up to the accession of Constantine. It makes no preten sion to survey in detail either the history of the Empire or the history of the Church within that period, but rather endeavours by means of a series of impressions to meet the needs of students and others who desire to possess a compact statement of the main features of a development which culminated in the acceptance of Christianity as an imperial religion and, incidentally, transformed its primitive organisation into the ordered and stable system of Catholicism. The writer hopes that such an outline will elucidate the chief factors of a fasci nating historical process, suggesting lines upon which a fuller and closer study may proceed, and indicating the authorities, patristic and Otherwise, for a wider enquiry. It is obvious that some important features can only be incidentally mentioned, as, for example, the tendencies of Christian thought and the growth of dogma with details of heresy and ecclesiastical controversy. Atten tion has rather been concentrated on what perhaps is more generally desired, a survey of the movement in its contact with the empire, its influence, its self-defence and the public verdict.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Two Empires: The Church and the World In the lectures here presented to the public I seem to be able to distinguish three courses, the first being on the Early Persecutions, the second on the Age of Constantine, and the third on the Nicene Council. But the manuscript does not entirely agree with such fragmentary outlines of these courses as I have been able to discover, so that it is not improbable that considerable portions of the lectures were committed to writing subsequently to their original delivery. There has certainly been some later revision. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Ancient Church Modern India Classic Reprint written by Godfrey E. Phillips and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ancient Church Modern India I hail this book with joy, and warmly commend it to others. It has long been a favourite idea with me that one of the chief aids to a real reading of ancient Christian history is to be found in the analogies afforded by the modern Mission field. Particularly is this true of lands like India and China, where age-long civilizations preoccupy the minds of men and determine the way in which they think and feel about the Christian Gospel when it appears in their midst. And most of all is it true of India, where various forms and strata of civilization and thought coexist side by side in the great "complex" called Hinduism, let alone the immigrant elements within the total life of India, Parseeism and Islam. These have indeed found a settled place in Indian society, yet as special communities or human enclaves, rather than as leavening elements in Hinduism, the native system of society south of the Himalayas. The parallels, then, between India, especially as part of the British Empire or Commonwealth of peoples, and the Roman Empire, particularly its Oriental half - East of Italy - considered as spheres for the Gospel of Christ in which to develop its inherent vital energies both as seed and as leaven, are many, striking, and often essential.
