Ante-Nicene Fathers, Vol. 5 (Hippolytus, Cyprian, Novatian)

This volume captures the high-stakes battle between early church orthodoxy and the dangerous allure of pagan philosophy. You will see how early thinkers like Hippolytus and Cyprian fought to keep the faith pure by dismantling the magical, astrological, and intellectual systems that threatened to distort it.
