Um þessa rafbók

In Christ’s Truth Over Heresy, Richard Allen (b. 1604) blows a trumpet blast in a world of confusion. The history of Christ’s Church is marked by seasons of doctrinal purity and seasons of theological corruption. The latter arise when heresy spreads under the guise of new insights, misguided tolerance, or the influence of worldly philosophies creeping into sacred doctrine. Richard Allen’s Christ’s Truth Over Heresy is not merely a polemic against error but a directory for the Church to remain steadfast in the faith once delivered to the saints (Jude 1:3). In an age where the purity of the Gospel was constantly assailed, Allen undertook the solemn task of contending for biblical truth, exposing the subtle and destructive nature of doctrinal deviations.


This work is more than an intellectual engagement with heresy—it is a theological fortress erected to preserve the integrity of Christian doctrine. Allen systematically refutes the principal heresies of his time, from distortions of the Trinity to corruptions of justification, sanctification, and the nature of the Church. He does not approach these matters with a cold, detached analysis but with the urgency of a shepherd guarding the flock against wolves.


At the heart of Allen’s argument is an unwavering commitment to sola Scriptura—the authority of God’s Word as the final standard for faith and practice. He meticulously demonstrates how heretical movements often elevate human reason, tradition, or mystical experience above the clear teaching of Scripture. From Rome’s additions to the Gospel to the radical sects that sought to undermine it altogether, Allen traces how deviations from biblical orthodoxy inevitably lead to spiritual ruin.


Yet, this book is not merely a warning; it is also an encouragement to those who love Christ’s truth. Allen’s work reminds us that theological vigilance is not an option but a necessity. The purity of the Church is not maintained through passive indifference but through active discernment and a firm adherence to the unchanging truth of God’s Word.


In an era where theological compromise is often mistaken for charity and doctrinal precision is dismissed as divisiveness, Christ’s Truth Over Heresy stands as a timeless reminder that truth must never be sacrificed on the altar of human opinion. It calls believers to examine their lives and strengthen their faith.
