In spite of long truces and temporary agreements, Christianity and
the State had become two rival powers striving for the mastery of
the world, and until the close of the final contest under
Diocletian there could be no real peace between them. The Church
was herself fully prepared for the struggle. During the first
century of her existence she had perfected her organization, and
her leaders, the bishops, had obtained unquestioned authority.
-from "The Conquest of Heathenism by Christianity: A.D. 161-A.D.
313" With equal measures of reverence and erudition, this classic
1891 history of Christianity offers a succinct survey of the
Church, from its pre-Christian foundations in Israel through its
ascendency to an absolute force for cultural and religious power
during the Dark Ages. In crisp, readable prose, Foakes-Jackson, a
respected and prolific Biblical scholar, discusses: -how Jewish
synagogues forged the path to churches -the rise of the family of
Herod -the societal impact of Jesus during his lifetime -the work
of the apostles in the decades after the Crucifixion -clashes
between the Roman government and the Church -the origins and
principles of Gnosticism -Christian thought in the early centuries
of the Church -the organization of the Church -the influence of
Constantine -and much more. Also available from Cosimo Classics:
Foakes-Jackson's A Brief Biblical History: Old Testament. British
theologian FREDERICK JOHN FOAKES-JACKSON (1855-1941) was a fellow
of Jesus College, Cambridge, and a professor of Christian
institutions at New York City's Union Theological Seminary. Among
his many works are An Introduction to the History of Christianity,
A.D. 590-1314 (1921), Josephus and theJews: The Religion and
History of the Jews as Explained by Flavius Josephus (1930), and
Peter: Prince of Apostles: A Study in the History and Tradition of
Christianity (1927).
