Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Brief Outline of Church History: Including the Reformed Church in the U. S Christ came into the world to do two things: first, to complete the work of redemption and to offer righteousness and salvation freely to all; secondly, to establish a church and give it authority and power to conquer the world. The work of redemption is revealed to us in the Bible, the conquests of the Church in Church History. A well-informed Christian should know both. Church History is divided into three great epochs. Ancient Christianity, 4 B.C. to 590 A.D., dealing with the early Christian Church; from the Birth of Christ to Gregory the Great. Medieval Christianity, 590-1517, unfolding the Glory and Decline of the Papacy; from Gregory the Great to the Reformation. Modern Christianity, 1517 to the present, presenting the Rise of Protestantism and the Multiplication of Denominations and Sects; from the Reformation to the Present Time. I. The Apostolic Age covers the first century. 1. The Infallible Rule. The Word of God, the life of Christ and the History of the Apostolic Church furnish the Infallible Rule by which all later developments in doctrine, worship, and church government must be measured. 2. Extension. The apostles obeyed the command of Christ: "Ye shall be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and unto the uttermost parts of the earth." The gospel was spread by extensive missionary journeys of the apostles, by the travels and business trips of believers, and by dispersions caused by persecutions.
