Excerpt from The Apostle Paul: A Sketch of the Development of His DoctrineThere is something greater still in the mind that inspired this mighty work, and of which, in truth, the work itself is only the exhibition and luminous tran scription in the visible order of things. Not only did Paul conquer the pagan world for Jesus Christ, he accomplished a task no less necessary, and per haps even more difficult, in emancipating at the same time infant Christianity from Judaism, under whose guardianship it was in danger of being sti¿ed. Besides removing the centre of gravity of the new Church, by the advance of his mission, from Jerusalem to Antioch, from Antioch to Ephesus, and from Ephesus to Rome, he also succeeded in disengaging from the swaddling bands of Judaism the spiritual and moral principles which constitute Christianity a progressive and universal religion.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
