Description
“The History of Dogma is a discipline of general Church History, which has for its object the dogmas of the Church. These dogmas are the doctrines of the Christian faith logically formulated and expressed for scientific and apologetic purposes, the contents of which are a knowledge of God, of the world, and of the provisions made by God for man's salvation.”
But, as the author states, the adherents of the Christian religion haven’t had these dogmas since the beginning, so it is very important to explore the history of dogma, its origin and development.
Applying his in-depth historical research, the author helps the readers in the study of biblical interpretation and dogmatics.
In this book, the author describes the genesis of ecclesiastical dogma. He provides definition, and gives and overview of the limits, divisions, and formation of dogma, covering its history, from the early Church to the time of Nitzsch, Loofs, and Renan. At the end of this book there is an appendix that provides a background of the history of Christian Judaism.
