Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into an examination of both Old and New Testament ecclesiastical doctrines. The author contrasts their meanings with the Greek equivalents found in their original texts, revealing the errors introduced by the Vulgate text, the primary Latin translation of the Bible. Through this analysis, the author traces the development of major Christian doctrines, such as the sacrifice of Christ, the idea of redemption, the atonement, and the notion of satisfaction. The book demonstrates how some of these concepts, such as the idea of substitutionary atonement, originated from mistranslations and misinterpretations of the Greek texts. The author argues that returning to the original context and meanings of these doctrines can enhance our understanding of the New Testament teachings on salvation and Christ's mission.
