The Gospel and Its Tributaries is a book written by Ernest Findlay Scott that explores the origins and development of Christianity. The book examines the various streams of thought and ideas that have contributed to the formation of the Christian faith, including the Jewish roots of Christianity, the influence of Greek philosophy, and the impact of Roman culture. Scott also delves into the historical context of the New Testament and the early Christian church, providing insights into the social, political, and religious forces that shaped the movement. The book is a comprehensive and scholarly work that offers a rich and nuanced understanding of the complex history of Christianity. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the origins and evolution of one of the world's most influential religions.1930. The attempt is made in the present book to trace out the double process in the growth of our religion, with a special emphasis on the creative power of those ideas which were inherent in itself. The treatment is concerned wholly with sources and influence, and an impression is left on us that the new religion was compounded of old materials and had nothing of its own to give. Contents: old and new in the gospel; Jewish inheritance; message of Jesus; nature of the church; Hellenistic influence; contribution of Paul; Alexandrian influence; conflict with heresy; rise of the Catholic church; gospel as borrowed and creative.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
