Book Overview

Against Marcion V4 is a book written by Tertullian, a prominent Christian theologian and apologist of the 2nd century AD. The book is a continuation of Tertullian's previous works, which were also directed against the teachings of Marcion, a heretical Christian leader who rejected the Old Testament and believed in a dualistic view of God and the world.In this book, Tertullian focuses on the nature of Christ and his relationship to God, as well as the role of the Old Testament in Christian theology. He argues that Marcion's teachings are inconsistent with the teachings of the apostles and the early Church, and that they undermine the unity of the Christian faith.Tertullian uses a variety of arguments and sources to support his position, including Scripture, logic, and the teachings of the Church fathers. He also engages with Marcion's own writings and critiques them in detail.Overall, Against Marcion V4 is an important work of early Christian theology and apologetics, which sheds light on the debates and controversies of the early Church. It remains relevant today as a source of insight into the development of Christian doctrine and the challenges faced by the Church in its early years.We must follow, then, the clue(20) of our discussion, meeting every effort of our opponents with reciprocal vigor. I say that my Gospel is the true one; Marcion, that his is. I affirm that Marcion's Gospel is adulterated; Marcion, that mine is. Now what is to settle the point for us, except it be that principle(1) of time, which rules that the authority lies with that which shall be found to be more ancient; and assumes as an elemental truth, (2) that corruption (of doctrine) belongs to the side which shall be convicted of comparative lateness in its origin.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work
