Was Jesus divine? Was Jesus human? Could God suffer? Can people
save themselves by their own efforts? Do Christian ministers have
to be perfect? These and other questions were answered by the early
Christian Church so as to rule in certain orthodox beliefs and rule
out certain heretical beliefs. Anyone could be a Christian, but a
Christian could not believe simply anything. Here, twelve top
theologians, all practising Christians, tackle ancient heresies and
show why the contemporary Church still needs to know about them.
The contributors argue that heresies are never finally defeated but
always continue in some form or other as live options for belief.
Christians therefore need to remember what these great early
heresies were and why they were ruled out, or else risk falling
prey to their modern-day manifestations. The essays included here
are scholarly but accessible, academic but highly relevant. They
show how attractive and plausible heresies are and how the Church
has always required intellectual effort, moral courage and
political skill to resist them.
