Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the fascinating history of Christianity from a viewpoint that centers on persecuted and often misunderstood Independents, whose legacy is still evident today. It challenges traditional state church views found in most European church histories. The narrative begins with the Primitive Church, exploring the apostles' labors, the spread of the faith, and the development of faith, life, and practice in this early period. It then examines the decline of primitive power and the rise of state churchism, discussing the influence of figures like Constantine, the church fathers, and the impact of heresies. The book also delves into the Great Period of Darkness, covering political history, the role of the papacy, and the rise of monasticism. The narrative continues with the Dawn of a New Day, highlighting figures like Peter Waldo, John Wyclie, and Martin Luther, and examining the impact of the Reformation on both Catholic and Protestant state churches. Finally, the book explores the rise of Independent Christianity, tracing its growth from the 18th century to the present day. Through its exploration of themes like persecution, spiritual renewal, and the fight for religious freedom, this book offers a unique and thought-provoking account of Christianity's journey through the centuries.
