Publisher's Synopsis
""Creed of Christendom: Its Foundations Contrasted With Its Superstructure"" is a book written by William Rathbone Greg that explores the history and development of Christianity. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part examining the foundations of the Christian faith and the second part contrasting these foundations with the superstructure of the religion as it has developed over time.In the first part of the book, Greg examines the origins of Christianity, including the life of Jesus and the early Christian communities. He also explores the theological and philosophical underpinnings of the faith, including the concept of God, the nature of sin, and the role of faith in salvation.In the second part of the book, Greg turns his attention to the ways in which Christianity has evolved over time, particularly in relation to the Catholic Church. He examines the development of the Church's hierarchy, the role of the papacy, and the ways in which the Church has interacted with secular power structures.Throughout the book, Greg offers a critical perspective on Christianity, questioning some of its fundamental beliefs and practices. He also considers the ways in which Christianity has influenced Western culture and society, both positively and negatively.Overall, ""Creed of Christendom: Its Foundations Contrasted With Its Superstructure"" is a thought-provoking and comprehensive exploration of the history and evolution of Christianity. It offers a nuanced and critical perspective on the religion, while also acknowledging its enduring importance and influence.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
