À propos de cet audio

Entrusting the apostles to continue the work he had started by instructing them to "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit . . .," Jesus kindled the fires of a new religion in a world largely dominated by polytheism, cult leader worship, and mysticism. In the first century of its existence, Christianity was both welcomed and vilified throughout the Roman Empire. Many of Christianity's original adherents were martyred - murdered by those who believed it a danger to their authority or, at the very least, the cause of unrest among an otherwise docile populace.

Christians themselves practiced their religion with great diversity, linked as much to local influences as theology. Political intrigue, theological beliefs, and simple misunderstandings created a need for dialogue between the many practitioners of the growing faith.

Christianity's adoption as the official faith of the Roman state tied it inexorably to the fortunes of the Empire. This also helped to create a gulf between the two main theological branches of the religion, which remain to this day.

It is apparent as one listens that Madden is a believer of biblical texts “literally”. This course does not unravel Christianity or the writings of it objectively. I covers the subject from a believers standpoint so if you are looking g for actual critical scholarship, you won’t find it here.

One example of his bias is stating that Christianity was against slavery. There is no credible evidence of that in the Bible. In fact it instructs spaces “to be obedient to their masters”.

This course is riddled with face value rhetoric.

If you are looking for a scholarly view of Christianity, ptry Bart Ehrman or Paula Fredriksen.

Difficult to be a believer and study history non-objectively
