What Is Christianity?
Book • 1982
Adolf von Harnack's "What is Christianity?
" attempts to define the core tenets of Christianity.
Harnack argues that the essence of Christianity lies in two propositions: the universal fatherhood of God and the universal brotherhood of man.
The book significantly influenced theological thought in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, sparking debates about the nature of Christian faith and its relationship to other belief systems.
Harnack's work is considered a landmark in the field of comparative religion, prompting discussions on the commonalities and differences between various faiths.
His interpretation, however, has been challenged by theologians who emphasize the unique and exclusive nature of Christian salvation.
The book remains a significant text in the history of Christian theology.
