Title: Interested in the real history?
Review: If you're curious about the real history of Christianity and the development of Christian doctrine, start with "Early Christian Writings" published by Penguin Books. This book contains the writings of the immediate disciples of the Apostles, including Ignatius of Antioch. From there, branch out into the other Ante-Nicene Church Fathers, like Justin Martyr and Irenaeus, and continue into the Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers like Athanasius, Jerome, Augustine, and John of Damascus. Check out Eusebius' "History of the Church (Ecclesiatical History)" also available from Penguin, and Jurgens' "Faith of the Early Fathers vols. 1-3." Why read a modern Prebyterian like L. Boettner when there are so many ancient Christian writings available (through Amazon.com)?
