Publisher's Synopsis
""Origin and Development of the Nicene Theology"" is a collection of lectures delivered by Hugh M. Scott in 1896. The book explores the history and evolution of Nicene theology, which is the doctrine of the Christian church that was established at the Council of Nicaea in 325 AD. The author provides a detailed analysis of the key theological concepts and debates that emerged during this period, including the nature of the Trinity and the divinity of Christ.In addition to examining the theological developments of the Nicene era, the book also delves into the Ritschlian view of theology and the history of doctrine. The Ritschlian view of theology was a school of thought that emerged in the late 19th century and emphasized the importance of practical Christianity over abstract theological concepts. Scott provides a critical analysis of this view and its impact on the study of theology.Overall, ""Origin and Development of the Nicene Theology"" is a comprehensive and scholarly work that provides a detailed exploration of the key theological debates and developments of the Nicene era, as well as a critical analysis of the Ritschlian view of theology. It is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and evolution of Christian theology.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
