The Founding of the Church Universal - The Beginnings of the Christian Church V2 (Paperback)

Probably no where else will readers find the crucial material concerning the church in its most formative period placed at their disposal in such graphic and authoritative form, or so closely related to secular history. Chapters on the beginning of the creeds and of the Christian liturgy are firsthand contributions of the finest quality, and the characterization of the great figures such as Tertullian and Origen, are lifelike and forceful in the highest degree.
