Early Church Fathers - Ante-Nicene Fathers, Volume 4 - Tertullian, Minucius Felix, Commodian, Origen

by Philip Schaff (Editor), Librainia (Created by)

Overview

One of the first great events in Christian history was the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD, convened to organize Christian sects and beliefs into a unified doctrine. The great Christian clergymen who wrote before this famous event are referred to as the Ante-Nicenes and the Apostolic Fathers, and their writings are collected here in a ten-volume set. The Ante-Nicenes lived so close to the time of Christ that their interpretations of the New Testament are considered more authentic than modern voices. But they are also real and flawed men, who are more like their fellow Christians than they are like the Apostles, making their words echo in the ears of spiritual seekers.

This Volume IV includes:

- Tertullian
- Minucius Felix
- Commodian
- Origen
