Tertulian's 'Apology'

About Tertullian; Tertullian, full name Quintus Septimus Florens Tertullianus, c. 155 - c. 240 AD, was a prolific Early Christian author from Carthage in the Roman province of Africa. Of Berber origin, he was the first Christian author to produce an extensive corpus of Latin Christian literature. He also was an early Christian apologist and a polemicist against heresy, including contemporary Christian Gnosticism. Tertullian has been called "the father of Latin Christianity and "the founder of Western theology." Though conservative in his worldview, Tertullian originated new theological concepts and advanced the development of early Church doctrine. He is perhaps most famous for being the first writer in Latin known to use the term Trinity (Latin: Trinitas). According to The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy, "Tertullian's trinity is] not a tribune God, but rather a triad or group of three, with God as the founding member".
