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.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Christianity and the Roman Empire It is not possible to discuss so intricate a subject without assuming some knowledge on the part of the reader. But it is believed that a very elemen tary acquaintance with the familiar facts of general history will make this little work intelligible. For the sake of those who may desire some introduction to the early Christian writers, but may only have access to translations such as are contained in the ante-nicene Christian Library, the chief works are cited by their English titles. In the Appendices an attempt has been made to supply such information concerning the principal persons whose names appear in these pages, as will enable the reader to refer them without difficulty to their proper date, locality, and school of thought.

I owe this to you as a token of gratitude for the help and kindness which more than once I received at your hands, years ago when a stranger in the city of Boston.

Download or read book An Introduction to Early Church History written by R. Martin Pope and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-03 with total page 178 pages. 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.

Download or read book The History of Christianity Vol 1 of 3 written by Henry Hart Milman and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of Christianity, Vol. 1 of 3: From the Birth of Christ to the Abolition of Paganism in the Roman Empire This new edition of the History of Christianity has been revised throughout. A few passages have been added, chiefly in the notes; a few slightly enlarged. In general, I have not found much, after a period of above twenty years, which I should wish to retract or to modify. Some objection was raised, on the first publication of the work, against the commencement of the History of Christianity with the Life of Christ. I thought then, and still think, that life to be an integral and inseparable part of the History. It appeared to me necessary to the completeness of the History to trace it to its primal origin; to show that the Gospels, our only documentary authorities, offer a clear and distinct relation of that life, with no greater variation than might reasonably be expected from four separate and independent narratives, drawn up by different writers, at different times and places, and by one at least from a different point of view; that this relation accords in every respect with all that we know of the events, circumstances, manners, usages, opinions, of the age and country; that its religious signification, and, in part, supernatural character, in no way conflict, but are, rather, in full and perfect harmony, with its simple truth and reality.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Roman Empire, From the Accession of Augustus to the End of the Empire of the West: Being a Continuation of the History of Rome The present volume is peculiarly valuable on many accounts. It embraces a period, the history of which exists in no accessible form, while its facts are Of a most interest ing and important nature, as connected with the rise, and Spread, and influence, and corruptions of the Christian church. It forms a connecting link between the times and nations properly called. Ancient, and those properly called modern, inasmuch as it displays the first inroads Of the peoples and races destined gradually to mould the latter, upon the strength, and power, and sway of the former, and their final rise upon their ruins.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Christ and the Fathers: Or the Reformers of the Roman Empire Several cautious and guarded concessions have been made by Bishop Temple in his Bampton Lectures on the Relations between Religion and Science on this very head, The supernatural in the form of miracles can never be the highest kind of evidence, can never stand alone; but it seems to have been needed for their first reception. But the very admissions which he makes regarding the miracles of the Old Testament, viz. The times are remote, the date and authorship of the Books not established with certainty; the mixture of poetry with history no longer capable of any sure separation into parts, are equally applicable to the miracles of the New Testament, which are said to have occurred eighteen centuries ago. At the same time, I trust the larger hope, that as the belief of Christians rests mainly on the voice within ourselves, according to him, the publica tion of the Bishop's work will date the beginning of the end in the history of the English Church, coeval with the commencement of the new British Constitution.

Download or read book Life Inside the Church of Rome Classic Reprint written by Francis Clare Cusack and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life Inside the Church of Rome His book will be characterised by plain speaking, and contain a record of plain facts. I hesitated long and thought much before I began this work, because I knew how great its importance would be, and I did not forget that I shall have to answer to God for what I have written. I know that all the treachery and deceit of which I have been made the subject is the common, ordinary practice of the Church of Rome; and if my sufferings have been great, and if the treatment which I have received has been cruel, it has simply been because I was at the mercy of a power which knows no mercy, and which makes persecution a dogma of her Church. As I shall have occasion to mention my autobio graphy several times in the course of this work, I may at once refer the reader to the end of this volume for particulars of its contents. It may be well to state here that any one who reads Roman Catholic lives of Roman Catholic canonized saints, will find in them ample evidence of the persecuting spirit of the Roman Catholic Church. Every one of thosesaints whom the Roman Church now honours so highly, was in his or her lifetime made the subject of the bitterest opposition, and the victim of the most cruel persecution. Rome hated her own saints while they were living, but canonised them when they were dead. Rome need not boast of the good works which have been done in her Church, because they have been accomplished, for the most part, not because of the help of the Church, but in spite of its opposition. Would to God that the eyes of all mankind could be Opened to see Rome as she is! It has the power in many countries to trample on and crush the weak, because it Hatters and bribes the strong to act as its ally in evil, until the strong also become weak and then they, too, learn what are the tender mercies of this professedly Christian Church.
