Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

Paperback. Who were the Christians who shaped the Church after the apostles?Before Christianity had medieval cathedrals, modern denominations, or centuries of accumulated tradition, it had bishops, martyrs, scholars, preachers, monks, biblical interpreters, and fierce theological debates.The Church Fathers Explained is an accessible journey through the men and women who helped shape early Christian belief, worship, biblical interpretation, and church life.From Clement of Rome and Ignatius of Antioch to Justin Martyr, Irenaeus, Tertullian, Origen, Athanasius, the Cappadocian Fathers, John Chrysostom, Jerome, Augustine, Cyril of Alexandria, and Ephrem the Syrian, Paul Abeto explains both what these influential Christians taught and why their ideas still matter.Along the way, the book examines the questions that continue to divide Christians today: - What did the early Church believe about baptism and the Eucharist?- When did bishops and apostolic succession appear?- How important was the church of Rome?- Did the Church Fathers believe in Scripture alone?- When did Christians begin venerating saints and martyrs?- What did the Fathers believe about Mary?- How did the doctrines of the Trinity and the divinity of Christ develop?- Why did Nicaea matter, and what did Constantine actually do?- Why were Origen and Tertullian so influential yet controversial?- Were the Church Fathers Catholic, Orthodox, or Protestant?Rather than recruiting the Fathers for one modern denomination, The Church Fathers Explained lets them speak from their own historical world.Their writings reveal a Christianity that was intensely biblical, sacramental, argumentative, intellectual, ascetic, charitable, political, and sometimes deeply flawed.Written for readers without specialist theological training, this book offers a balanced introduction to the thinkers who helped create the theological vocabulary that Christians still use today.Whether you are Protestant, Catholic, Orthodox, exploring Christianity, or simply interested in the history of ideas, this book provides a clear guide to the centuries between the apostles and the mature Christian traditions that followed.
