Publisher's Synopsis
On The Resurrection Of The Flesh is a theological treatise written by Tertullian, a prominent Christian writer and theologian of the 2nd century AD. The book focuses on the Christian belief in the resurrection of the body, which is a central tenet of the faith. Tertullian explores the nature of the resurrection, arguing that it is a physical event that will happen to all believers at the end of time. He also discusses the implications of the resurrection for the Christian life, including the importance of living a moral and virtuous life in preparation for the afterlife. The book is written in a highly rhetorical style, with Tertullian using a range of literary devices to persuade his readers of the truth of his arguments. Overall, On The Resurrection Of The Flesh is a significant work of Christian theology that continues to be studied and debated by scholars and theologians to this day.Hence it is that heretics start at once from this point, (1) from which they sketch the first draft of their dogmas, and afterwards add the details, being well aware how easily men's minds are caught by its influence, (and actuated) by that community of human sentiment which is so favourable to their designs. Is there anything else that you can hear of from the heretic, as also from the heathen, earlier in time or greater in extent?This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
