We had come to the time in the Catholic church of one of the great teachers of the church that formulated major doctrine that is with us to this day and that is the man who is called Saint Augustine otherwise we call Augustine. And as we noted a little bit last time this man probably has had more im ...

I have written on the board a number of names, some of which we'll be talking about today as we get along through the class. On the left hand column I have summarized the names that are the more prominent names under which we would find God's Church, at least that is how we feel, starting back a ...

We had come then to the period of time that begins the 1100's when we see the non-catholic christians, and I use that term many times through the semester, non-catholic christians becoming a much stronger group in Europe. In the 1100, 1200, 1300 and 1400's off and on they are very large groups o ...

In many ways I think the material we are discussing, these few days are, that is the most interesting period of time in Church history perhaps for us to study, fascinating period of time between about 1100 and 1300 that we've been talking about, from the beginning of the Ministry of Peter de Bruys ...

Last time then we began to see how well in advance of Christ's first coming when He was born of the virgin Mary, that God began to prepare the entire world for the arrival of His Church and we talked about how Babylon brought the concept of world rule and God began to use these pagan empires not o ...

We have come to the time of Peter Waldo primarily which is the real crux, I think, of the work of the Church of God. During this period of time that we would attribute to the Thyatira era using the example out of the book of Revelation. After the days of Peter Waldo, the early 1200's when he died, ...

We wanna just spend a few more minutes wrapping up the section on the Waldensians that we've been talking about the last couple of classes, and then I will give you an overview of the history of the Catholic church, which you must grab your seatbelts and hang on tight because we will cover a lot o ...

We'll pick up the story in 1300 with the Papathian Abbey Yon France, during which time the corruption of the church continues. By the middle of the 1400's we are starting to see it change in the world. This is you no doubt know the 1400's were very significant to world history. It was in this ...

We have come to the time of the Protestant reformation which is certainly in this world's history a monumental event. The Catholic church had essentially, as we have seen, dominated western religion, from the Counsel of Lycia, certainly from the time of the Imperial Restoration in the middle of th ...

We've been talking about what's been happening in the 13, 14, 15, 1600's, we went through the Protestant reformation to show what was happening in the 1500's, but we've also seen that prior to that there were quite a number of groups, various forms that were always anti-Catholic and oppose ...

We have been seeing the last couple of classes how Sabbath keepers begin to, as we say, come out of the wood work because by now we are coming to the end of that 1260 years in which they would have to be in the wilderness which began, again depending on how you count it sometime in the 300's aroun ...

This is a slide of, the statue of Roger Williams who was the founder of the colonies of Rhode Island in the early Americas. I mentioned the other day we should be familiar with this only in the fact that of all the colonies in the New World, Rhode Island was the one that was established on the basis ...

We're running just a little bit out of what may be the best time order of events here, but I think still we'll be able to put the story together without any trouble. Today we want to talk about one of the classic writers historically of early Church history, as I did last time, I mentioned Adolf ...

Mr. Stump took you through the period of time past Nero I guess, I'm just reviewing his notes here very quickly to see how far he got last time, some of the things I say today may repeat just a little bit, although I don't think too much. Because you need to be familiar with some of these names ...

We had come then late in the first century to the end years of the Apostle John as the first century comes to a close, the Church had been through its many ups and downs but really after the death of Peter and Paul in the 60's and the fall of Jerusalem in the year 70 A.D. the Church never had the ...
