The Rule of Faith (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781162598468)

The Rule of Faith by W. P. Paterson is a book that explores the concept of the ""rule of faith"" in Christianity. The author argues that the rule of faith is a fundamental principle of Christian belief that has been passed down through the centuries and is essential for understanding the Bible and Christian doctrine.The book begins by examining the history of the rule of faith, tracing its origins back to the early Church and the apostolic fathers. It then explores how the rule of faith has been interpreted and applied throughout history, and how it has been used to guide Christian theology and practice.Paterson also examines the relationship between the rule of faith and other important Christian concepts, such as the Trinity, the nature of Christ, and the role of the Church. He argues that the rule of faith provides a framework for understanding these concepts and for interpreting the Bible in a way that is consistent with Christian tradition.Throughout the book, Paterson emphasizes the importance of the rule of faith for contemporary Christians. He argues that it provides a foundation for Christian belief and practice that is both timeless and relevant to modern life.Overall, The Rule of Faith is a comprehensive and insightful exploration of an important concept in Christian theology. It will be of interest to scholars, pastors, and laypeople who are interested in understanding the foundations of Christian belief and practice.1912. The Baird Lecture for 1905. This book has a certain definiteness of purpose as a study in the Prolegomena to Dogmatics. The short title which is not adopted is one which was naturalized both in Patristic and Protestant theology, and the phrase has had a variety of scope which makes it legitimate to use it to cover the discussions alike as to the seat and the substance of doctrine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
