Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book is a guide to studying ecclesiastical history, written for students and others who want to continue their historical studies. The author deliberately uses the term "ecclesiastical history" instead of "church history" to highlight that the field extends beyond church activities and doctrine and encompasses the full scope of spiritual and natural occurrences that make up the history of the church from its earliest days to the present day. The author emphasizes that ecclesiastical history employs the same scientific methodology as other historical disciplines, but the subject matter requires a unique approach. While admitting that the historian cannot achieve the same degree of certainty as the natural scientist, the author insists that historical knowledge can be just as sure and stable. The work of the historian involves the analysis of evidence and the synthesis of the results, and the author provides guidance on how to undertake both tasks. The book concludes with a discussion of how to apply these principles to the study of ecclesiastical history, emphasizing the importance of understanding the spiritual and natural aspects of the church's development and the need to avoid imposing modern values and beliefs on the past. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.
