The Faith of Jesus Christ in Early Christian Traditions

More about the book

Exploring the concept of Jesus' faith in God, this book examines early church perspectives by analyzing Jewish and Graeco-Roman definitions of faith alongside New Testament texts. It identifies two key trajectories: one focused on discipleship and the other on the theological implications of salvation. The study extends into the first four centuries of Christian literature, ultimately linking the Arian controversy to the decline of discussions surrounding Jesus' faith within developing orthodox beliefs.
