The Issue of Authority in Early Christianity - Dr. Kenneth Howell - Deep in History

Описание к видео The Issue of Authority in Early Christianity - Dr. Kenneth Howell - Deep in History

In this talk from The Coming Home Network's 2009 Deep in History conference, Dr. Kenneth Howell looks at the question of authority in the early Church. Before the Bible was officially compiled, how did Christians understand the nature of truth, and how to prioritize beliefs and practices? What kind of authority did the apostles have - were they merely pastoral guides, or did what they said and did have the weight of law in the early Church? Did they pass on their authority to their successors? Dr. Howell addresses the question at the heart of all efforts toward Christian unity: who or what has the authority to teach and preserve the Christian faith?
