Disciplinary, Moral and Ascetical Works

Disciplinary, Moral and Ascetical Works by Tertullian is a collection of writings by the early Christian theologian Tertullian. The book is divided into three sections, each focusing on a different aspect of Christian life and practice. The first section deals with discipline, including topics such as fasting, prayer, and the use of the sacraments. The second section focuses on morality, discussing issues such as marriage, sexuality, and the virtues of humility and charity. The third and final section is concerned with asceticism, exploring the practices of monasticism and the pursuit of spiritual perfection. Throughout the book, Tertullian emphasizes the importance of living a holy and virtuous life, and offers practical advice for achieving this goal. The works in this collection are considered foundational texts in the development of Christian theology and ethics, and remain relevant to contemporary readers seeking to deepen their understanding of the Christian faith.Additional Translator Are Emily Joseph Daly And Edwin A.
