'Orthodox Faith' Summary
The Orthodox Faith is a comprehensive summary of the Christian faith, written by Saint John of Damascus in the 8th century. It is divided into four parts: (1) On the Orthodox Faith, (2) On Heresies, (3) On the Sacraments, and (4) On the Last Things. The first part is the most important, and it sets forth the basic beliefs of Orthodox Christianity. John of Damascus begins by discussing the nature of God and the Trinity. He then goes on to discuss the creation of the world, the fall of man, and the Incarnation of Christ. He concludes by discussing the sacraments, the resurrection of the dead, and the final judgment. The Orthodox Faith is a valuable resource for anyone interested in learning about the beliefs of Orthodox Christianity.Book Details
