Apology

Apology

by Tertullian

Tertullian's *Apology* is a powerful defense of Christianity written in the late 2nd century AD. It addresses the Roman authorities directly, challenging their persecution of Christians and arguing for their right to exist peacefully within the empire. Tertullian eloquently refutes common accusations against Christians, emphasizing their moral uprightness, their commitment to peace, and their devotion to God. He appeals to reason and logic, but also to the inherent justice of the Roman legal system, demanding that Christians be treated fairly and with the same respect afforded to other religious groups.
