THE CHURCH UNIVERSAL Volume IV
THE CHURCH UNIVERSAL Brief Histories of Her Continuous Life
A series of eight volumes dealing with the history of the Christian Church from the beginning of the present day.
Edited by The Rev. W. H. Hutton, B.D. Fellow and Tutor of S. John's College, Oxford, and Examining Chaplain to the Bishop of Rochester
THE CHURCH OF THE APOSTLES. The Rev. Lonsdale Ragg, M.A., Vicar of the Tickencote, Rutlandshire, and Prebendary of Lincoln Cathedral.
Mr. Ragg has produced something far better than a mere text-book: the earlier chapters especially are particularly interesting reading. The whole book is well proportioned and scholarly, and gives the reader the benefit of wide reading of the latest authorities. The contrasted growth and fortunes of the Judaic Church of Jerusalem and the Church of the Gentiles are particularly clearly brought out. — Church Times .
Written in a clear and interesting style, and summaries the early records of the growth of the Christian community during the first century. — Irish Ecclesiastical Gazette.
A careful piece of work, which may be read with pleasure and profit. — Spectator .
THE CHURCH OF THE FATHERS. The Rev. Leighton Pullan, M.A., Fellow of St. John's College, and Theological Lecturer of St. John's and Oriel Colleges, Oxford.
If we may forecast the merits of the series by Pullan's volume, we are prepared to give it an unhesitating welcome. We shall be surprised if this book does not supersede of the less interesting Church histories which have served as text-books for several generations of theological students. — Guardian .
