"Who is among you that feareth the Lord, that obeyeth the voice of His servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God." -Isa. 50:10 The Bible has a message for every life, no matter what its duty or test or need.
Hermogenes taught that matter is eternal and therefore equal to God. In this writing, Tertullian, an early Christian author from Carthage in the Roman province of Africa, disputes Hermogenes' ideas, particularly with regards to creation of mankind. The granularity of Tertullian's argument makes it apparent that Hermogenes had published work that has since been lost
"And it came to pass, when he made mention of the ark of God, that he fell from off the seat backward by the side of the gate, and his neck brake, and he died: for he was an old man, and heavy. And he had judged Israel forty years. And his daughter in law,
In The Five Books against Marcion, Tertullian, an early Christian author from Carthage in the Roman province of Africa, disperses an exhaustive repudiation of Marcion's controversial beliefs. Contrary to Christ's teachings, Marcion (Marcion of Sinope) discounted the Old Testament and parts of the New Testament to form his own brand of "christianity". His outrageous claims

"He that is not with Me is against Me." --Matt. 12:30 There is something bewildering in the endless variety of Christ s character. The many-sidedness and withal the perfect symmetry of His life has always puzzled men even while it persuaded them. At one time He is the Man of gentleness, calling the weary and heavy-laden
"And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell."—Matt. 10:28. I. The Asking—"Is Hell a Myth?" A myth? Like Aeolus imprisoning in a leather bag tied with a silver string such winds and tempests as
"Blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in Me." --Matt. 11:6 "These things have I spoken unto you, that ye should not be offended." --John 16:1 One of the greatest perils of the Christian life lurks in the common pathway of discipleship. It is the peril of being offended in Christ. The fellowship to which the
"And Elisha sent a messenger unto him, saying, Go and wash in Jordan seven times, and thy flesh shall come again to thee, and thou shall be clean." --II Kings 5:10 "Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases." --Psalm 103:3 The biography of Naaman is a precious contribution to the evidence that the love
This is likely one of Tertullian's earlier works as it appears as if it has not been polished for publication. This work was later reworked to produce the Apologeticum. It consists of two books. The first book discusses judicial procedures used during the persecution of Christians. The second book discussed slanders against Christians (which Tertullian
