Arnobius Against The Heathen V6 - Paperback

Arnobius Against The Heathen V6 is a book written by Arnobius, a Christian apologist who lived in the 3rd century AD. The book is a defense of Christianity against the pagan religions of the time. In it, Arnobius argues that Christianity is the only true religion and that the pagan gods are false and powerless. He also addresses common objections to Christianity, such as the problem of evil and the apparent contradictions in the Bible. The book is divided into seven books, each of which deals with a different aspect of the Christian faith. This particular volume is the sixth in the series and focuses on the nature of God and the Trinity. Arnobius draws on scripture, philosophy, and reason to make his arguments, and his writing is characterized by a passionate and forceful style. Overall, Arnobius Against The Heathen V6 is an important work of early Christian apologetics and provides insight into the debates and controversies of the time.And so unmindful and forgetful of what the substance and origin of the images are, you, men, rational beings(6) and endowed with the gift of wisdom and discretion, sink down before pieces of baked earthenware, adore plates of copper, beg from the teeth of elephants good health, magistracies, sovereignties, power, victories, acquisitions, gains, very good harvests, and very rich vintages; and while it is plain and clear that you are speaking to senseless things, you think that you are heard, and bring yourselves into disgrace of your own accord, by vainly and credulously deceiving yourselves.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
