The Primitive Doctrine Concerning The Person And Character Of Jesus Christ is a book written by William Burns and first published in 1822. The book is a theological treatise that explores the nature of Jesus Christ as understood by the early Christian church. Burns argues that the primitive doctrine of Christ's person and character was a simple and straightforward belief in his divinity and humanity, without the complicated theological debates and controversies that arose in later centuries. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which examines a different aspect of the primitive doctrine of Christ. Burns begins by discussing the scriptural evidence for Christ's divinity, citing passages from the Old and New Testaments that support this belief. He then examines the early Christian creeds and confessions of faith, arguing that they provide further evidence for Christ's divinity. Burns also explores the early Christian understanding of Christ's humanity, arguing that the primitive doctrine held that Christ was fully human as well as fully divine. He discusses the importance of Christ's human nature in the early Christian understanding of salvation, and argues that this doctrine has important implications for Christian ethics and morality. Throughout the book, Burns engages with the writings of early Christian theologians and apologists, including Ignatius of Antioch, Justin Martyr, and Tertullian. He also addresses some of the challenges and objections raised by critics of the primitive doctrine of Christ, and defends this doctrine as the most faithful and authentic expression of Christian faith. Overall, The Primitive Doctrine Concerning The Person And Character Of Jesus Christ is a comprehensive and scholarly examination of the early Christian understanding of Christ's nature and character. It is a valuable resource for theologians, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of Christian thought.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
