THE BLOODY CHURCH HISTORY

The history of the church is a chronicle of how the Holy Spirit has worked in the lives of God’s people throughout human history. Theologians frequently distinguish between the ancient, medieval (classical period 8 BC-500 BC, classical age, or simply antiquity, is the period of Mediterranean history), Reformation Period (1517 – 1648 A.D), and modern eras when discussing the history of the new covenant church. To facilitate historical study, it provides some fundamental presumptions and standards of historical research. It presents a sophisticated theological historical project. It echoes the divine summons to find the correct ancient route when faced with a fork in the road. It serves as a check on whether people are correctly interpreting Scripture and it also helps us recognize when we are straying from the truth.

From the early church to the start of the Protestant Reformation, it tells the story of Christianity. Carefully traces key theological issues and developments within the various traditions of the church, including significant events outside of Europe, like the Spanish and Portuguese inquisition and the 30-year major European religious wars, starting with the devoted apostles of Jesus and ending with the early reformist John Wycliffe. Without examining the causes, successions, and consequences of persecution on the church during that time, which was said to have withstood the storms and fire of persecution, the history of the church would not be complete. If you’ve ever wanted a little book that highlights the most significant moments in church history to spark your curiosity and enlighten you, this book is the answer.
