Summary

Nothing except the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is a greater miracle or wonder in human history. God becoming flesh in human history is the greatest marvel. Jesus of Nazareth was foretold in the Torah and the Prophets centuries before his appearance, and he was proved to be real and not a pretender due to his death and Resurrection. The early church grappled with all of this intellectually. Many heresies were confronted, answered, and dismissed. Throughout the 2,000-plus years of church history, many of the early church heresies have reappeared over and over again. Whether you are Catholic or Protestant, the answers are from the Word of God.

Wonderful ancient text on Christ

Athanasius holds out Christ and his work to show why it is essential he, the second person of the Godhead, became man and defends this truth against contemporary critics. Heartwarming, intellectually and theologically stimulating, and punchy!

Very worthwhile

Easy to get through and well read. Remarkable how the 4th century writer provides an explanation of the fundamentals of Christianity that sounds like it could have been written today.

Very interesting perspective across time

Needs concentration but hearing arguments that if God indwells ALL creation then why not in the man Jesus who displayed his divinity very obviously by his works which are a sign for us to see who he is. Helped me understand doctrine of Pan-en-theism.

Modern thinking in an ancient book

A beautiful book, delightfully read. Agnostics should read it to hear the irrefutable arguments. Christians should read it for encouragement and reaffirmation.
