Publisher's Synopsis
Against Marcion V2 is a book written by Tertullian, a prominent Christian theologian and apologist of the second century. The book is a continuation of Tertullian's argument against the teachings of Marcion, a heretic who rejected the Old Testament and believed that the God of the Old Testament was different from the God of the New Testament. In this book, Tertullian presents a detailed critique of Marcion's teachings, focusing on the inconsistencies and contradictions in his arguments. He also defends the authority and authenticity of the Old Testament, arguing that it is an integral part of Christian scripture and cannot be separated from the New Testament. Throughout the book, Tertullian uses a variety of rhetorical devices and arguments to support his position, including appeals to scripture, logic, and common sense. He also draws on his extensive knowledge of Greek philosophy and literature to make his case. Overall, Against Marcion V2 is a powerful and compelling defense of orthodox Christian doctrine against the heretical teachings of Marcion. It remains a valuable resource for scholars and theologians interested in the history of Christian thought and the development of Christian doctrine.Furthermore, with respect to the repentance which occurs in His conduct?(9) you interpret it with similar perverseness just as if it were with fickleness and improvidence that He repented, or on the recollection of some wrong-doing; because He actually said, ""It repenteth me that I have set up Saul to be king, (10) ""very much as if He meant that His repentance savoured of an acknowledgment of some evil work or error.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
