Trait De L'excellence De La Religion: Avec Quatre Discours I. Sur L'amour De Dieu. Ii. Sur L... Book

A well organized appeal to the emperor to stop persecuting Christians. He first appeals to common sense. Why are Christians being persecuted simply because they are so-called? He then moves on to educate those reading the letter about what it is exactly Christians believe, how they are taught to submit to authorities, pay taxes, etc. Finally he seeks to prove Christianity by appeals to fulfilled prophecy. It is also interesting to note his responses to the different heresies of his day. Recommended for those interested in the history of the early church.
