About This Item
1675 Tertullian Prescriptions Against Heretics Early Church Father Pagan Heresy
"Truth persuades by teaching, but does not teach by persuading."
― Tertullian
Tertullian was a 2nd-century early Christian church author and apologist. His works helped establish Western theology and early Church doctrine, especially those that spoke out against heresy. He is perhaps most famous for being the first Latin writer to use the term 'trinity' in reference to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Tertullian emphatically defended Christianity against pagans as well as defended 'freedom of religion' as human right unable to be taken away. One of his important apologetics was an anti-Jewish treatise to counteract Gnosticism and other philosophically based doctrines.
One of Tertullian's most important polemical works was 'De Praescriptionibus adversus Haereticos', or 'Prescriptions Against Heretics'. In this book, Tertullian describes why heresies exist, and even must exist, while showing through scripture that heresies and heretics seek to abuse the truth. In fact, perhaps the strongest chapter in this work state that heretics are perverters of Christ and his teachings.
This 1675 Brussels edition of 'Prescriptions Against Heretics' was published by Foppens, collected and edited by Christian Lupus.

Michael Bond - the man behind Paddington Bear
“All the same ... it’s a very important name. And I don’t expect there are many bears in the world called Paddington!”
