Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Commentaries on the State of Christianity, Vol. 2 of 2: During the First Three Hundred and Twenty-Five Years From the Christian Era I. Propagation of Christianity in Arabia. That the (p. 448.) limits of the Christian commonwealth were much extended during this century, no one hesitates to admit; but, in what manner, by whose instrumentality, and in what parts of the world, is not equally manifest, the ancient memorials having perished. While Demetrius ruled the Alexandrian church, over which he is said to have presided until the year 230, a certain Arabian chieftain, (that is, as I suppose, the head and leader of a tribe of those Arabs who live in tents, and have no fixed and permanent residence,) sent letters to this prelate, and to the prefect of Egypt, requesting that the celebrated Origen might be sent to him, to impart to him and his people a knowledge of Christianity. Origen, therefore, went among these Arabs; and, having soon dispatched the business of his mission, he returned to Alexandria. He undoubtedly took with him from Alexandria several Christian disciples and teachers, whom he left with that people, as he himself could not be long absent from Alexandria. II. Propagation of Christianity among the Goths. To the Goths, a most warlike and ferocious people, dwelling in Moesia and Thrace, the wars they waged with various success against the Romans, during almost the whole of this century, produced this advantage, that they became friendly to Christian truth.
