History of Origins of Christianity Vol 5
Early Gospels by
Ernest Renan
The historian argues that Marcus Aurelius, famous for his evenhanded rule and contributions to Stoic philosophy, influenced early Christianity greatly. During the emperor’s reign, Christianity adopted Stoic systems and standards of morality that have since survived into the present. Renan’s account reflects his background in 19th century German higher criticism of the Bible.

Reign of Hadrian by
Ernest Renan
Sixth Book would finish the series of volumes which I have devoted to the history of the origins of Christianity. It is certain that at the death of Antoninus, circa A.D. 160, the Christian religion had become a complete religion, having all its sacred books, all its grand legends, the germ of all its dogmas, the essential parts of its liturgies; and in the eyes of most of its adherents, it was a religion standing by itself, separated from and even opposed to Judaism.

Unlike the previous era of Christian writing, the Nicene and Post-Nicene era is dominated by a few very important and prolific writers. In Volume III of the 14-volume collected writings of the Nicenes and Post-Nicenes (first published between 1886 and 1889), readers will find a complete collection of Saint Augustine¿s writings concerning Christian doctrine and ethics.
