The World
Author: Tradition, Scripture, and Interpretation
Author: D. H. WilliamsPublisher: Baker Academic
ISBN: 0801031648
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
"While the patristic age is marked by the development of the Apostle's and the Nicene creeds, D. H. Williams contends we must not neglected the lesser known yet just as significant theological texts and expressions of worship that were seminal in shaping early Christian identity. In this sourcebook, Williams gathers key writings from the first through sixth centuries that illustrate the ways in which the church's confessions, teaching, and worship were expressed during that time. More than an anthology, this sourcebook introduces the primary sources of Christian antiquity."--BOOK JACKET.
