DescriptionsEdit Descriptions

The Message of the Fathers of the Church is a companion series to the Old Testament Message and New Testament Message series. It was conceived and planned in the belief that both Scripture and Tradition were necessary to the formation of the early Church. The term "Fathers" is usually reserved for Christian writers marked by, among other attributes, antiquity. In the present series, however, some elasticity has been used to include authors whose writings contributed to the evolution of the Message on particular doctrinal matters. (English, Unclassified)
