Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book focuses on the rise and pervasiveness of Arianism during the 4th century, a heresy that threatened the early Church's unity by denying the divinity of Christ. Through the author's exploration of primary sources from the era, readers gain insight into how the Roman emperors Constantine, Constantius II, and Valens supported and propagated Arianism, using political power to silence dissenting voices and elevate Arian bishops. The author contrasts the emperors' actions with those of staunchly orthodox figures like Athanasius, Hilary of Poitiers, and Ambrose of Milan, who defended the traditional doctrine of Christ's divinity. This book not only sheds light on the intricacies of early Christian theology but also highlights the enduring relevance of religious freedom and the dangers of state interference in matters of faith. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
