A <strong>History</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Christian</strong> <strong>Doctrine</strong><br />

basic understanding <strong>of</strong> their doctrines.<br />

This information will provide various perspectives on<br />

biblical issues and will aid in dialogue with people <strong>of</strong> different<br />

backgrounds. The reader will see how God has<br />

worked to restore and revive fundamental truths that<br />

were largely forgotten.<br />

This book arose out <strong>of</strong> teaching church history for<br />

five years at Jackson College <strong>of</strong> Ministries in Jackson,<br />

Mississippi, and lecturing for the extension program <strong>of</strong><br />

Kent <strong>Christian</strong> College in Dover, Delaware. Special thanks<br />

goes to Claire Borne for transcribing the taped material,<br />

which served as an outline and a partial rough draft.<br />

It is important to remember that only the Bible is our<br />

authority for doctrine. We cannot establish spiritual truth<br />

by history, tradition, majority opinion, great leaders, or<br />

personal experiences, but only by the Word <strong>of</strong> God.<br />
