Justin addresses the Emperor Antoninus Pius, Marcus Aurelius, and Lucius Verus 171; title: ii. And represents that their names and station required them to regard truth alone 172; title: iii. He demands that the charges against the Christians should be examined: that the Christians should be impartially treated, according as they deserved, and not be punished for a mere name 173; title: iv. Christianity ought not to be judged of, from the misconduct of some who only profess the name 176; title: v. Justin attributes the injustice of the heathens towards the Christians, to the instigation of demons 176; title: vi. And declares that the Christians worshipped only God, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit  178; title: vii. He requires that the actions of all those accused should be examined 180; title: viii. The Christians suffer only because they dare not deny the truth 182; title: ix. And will not pay honour to false gods, and senseless idols 183; title: x. Knowing that God requires not material offerings, but purity and holiness of life ; and will admit those, who obey his will, to immortality and glory 184; title: xi. The kingdom, which Christians expect, is not of this world 185; title: xii. Their religion is the best means of preserving peace 186; title: xiii. And enables them to defy their persecutors 187; title: xiv. Jesus Christ foretold their persecutions 188; title: xv. Justin proceeds to shew what Christianity is; title: xvi. The worship of the Christians consists in prayer and praise to God, the Creator, to his Son, Jesus Christ, and to the Holy Spirit 189; title: xvii. A most beneficial change had taken place, in the lives of those who had become Christians 190; title: xviii. Many precepts of Christ teach chastity 191; title: xix. — The love of all men 193; title: xx. — The patient endurance of evil 194; title: xxi. — And that men should not swear 195; title: xxii. Christ declared that they who live not as he taught, are not Christians indeed 196; title: xxiii. And commanded his followers to pay tribute, and honour those in authority 197; title: xxiv. The superstitions of the heathens themselves might make them believe that the soul survives death 198; title: xxv. The resurrection of the body is not so incredible as its first formation would be, to one who had had no experience of it 200; title: xxvi. Christ taught that things impossible with man are possible with God 202; title: xxvii. The punishment of hell reserved for the unrighteous, is hinted at by some heathens —; title: xxviii. It is, therefore, unreasonable that Christians alone should be hated, while poets and philosophers, who entertain less just and sublime notions, are honoured 203; title: xxix. Justin compares the opinions which the heathen falsely maintained respecting Jupiter and others, with the more reasonable tenets of the Christians 205; title: xxx. And shews that their opinions respecting Christ might well obtain credence from those who held notions of a similar nature respecting their own deities 206; title: xxxi. The truths of Christianity are more ancient than the fables of heathenism 207; title: xxxii. Yet Christians alone are punished, while the most absurd idolatries are permitted 208; title: xxxiii. They have reformed their lives in embracing a purer faith 209; title: xxxiv. Even after the ascension of Christ the evil spirits have instigated men to call themselves gods: as in the instance of Simon Magus and Menander 210; title: xxxv. The heresy of Marcion 213; title: xxxvi. Justin refutes the calumnies, brought against the Christians, of devouring children, and incest : and retorts the charges upon the heathen 215; title: xxxvii. The purity and continence of the Christians  217; title: — Lest the miracles of Christ should be ascribed to magic, Justin appeals to prophecy 218; title: xxxviii. And relates the history of the translation of the Hebrew Scriptures into Greek by the order of Ptolemy 219; title: xxxix. In those prophecies, the miraculous birth of Jesus, his being made man, his miracles, sufferings, death, resurrection, and ascension, his Divine nature, and the extension of his religion over the whole world are expressly predicted 221; title: xl. — lii. This is shewn by various quotations 221-236; title: liii. Justin explains why the Holy prophetic Spirit speaks of future events as already past 236; title: liv. Christians consider not that events happen by fatal necessity ; which would be inconsistent with the free-will of man 237; title: lv. But believe this only to be irreversibly determined, that they who choose the good shall be rewarded, and they who choose the evil shall be punished 238; title: lvi. This is proved by quotations from Scripture  239; title: lvii. And shewn to agree with the opinion of Plato 240; title: lviii. Prophecy therefore implies not a fatal necessity, but shews the foreknowledge of God 240; title: lix. The evil spirits endeavoured to prevent the knowledge of prophecy, but in vain 241; title: lx. David predicted that God the Father should receive Christ into heaven 241; title: lxi. Justin asserts that all men, in all ages, who lived agreeably to right reason, were Christians in spirit 242; title: lxii. Various prophecies, shewing that Jerusalem should be destroyed 244; title: lxiii. That Christ should heal the sick, and raise the dead 245; title: lxiv. That He should be made man, and suffer many things, and come again in glory 247; title: lxv. That He hath an origin which cannot be expressed 249; title: lxvi. The fulfilment of these prophecies is an earnest that those yet unaccomplished will be fulfilled 250; title: lxvii. And, therefore, that Christ will come the second time, to judgment 251; title: lxviii. These prophecies had fully persuaded the Christians to believe Christ, who was crucified, to be the first-born of the unbegotten God 252; title: lxix. The conversion of the Gentiles was foretold. —; title: lxx. The evil demons, knowing the prophecies respecting Christ, invented fables of a similar nature, to deceive men 254; title: lxxi. As in the fables of Bacchus, Bellerophon, Perseus, and Hercules 255; title: lxxii. But in no fable was the crucifixion of Christ imitated 256; title: lxxii. The figure of the Cross is almost universally employed 257; title: lxxiii. The demons also, after the ascension of Christ, raised up men, such as Simon, and Menander, before mentioned, in c. 34 258; title: lxxiv. The malice of these evil spirits can, however, only instigate the enemies of the Christians to destroy them 259; title: lxxv. They raised up Marcion to deceive men 260; title: lxxvi. lxxvii. Plato obtained his notions respecting the creation of the world, and other opinions, from the writings of Moses 261; title: lxxviii. It is not, then, that the Christians adopt the opinions of others, but others, theirs 268; title: lxxix. Justin explains the manner in which believers are baptized 264; title: lxxx. Shews that this new birth is necessary; and that baptism is performed in the name of God the Father, and of Jesus Christ, and of the Holy Spirit 265; title: lxxxi. Justin then digresses to shew that the evil spirits imitated the practice of baptism ; as they caused the action of Moses, who put off his shoes at the burning bush, to be imitated 266; title: lxxxii. He declares that it was the Son of God, who appeared to Moses in the bush 267; title: lxxxiii. And to the prophets in various forms 268; title: lxxxiv. And asserts that the demons imitated what they learned from the writings of Moses, in several instances 270; title: lxxxv. Justin then returns to describe the administration of the Eucharist to those who had been baptized 271; title: lxxxvi. He explains the nature of that sacrament ; that the elements are not common bread nor common drink ; and relates the manner of its institution 278; title: lxxxvii. The Christians assemble on Sunday. An account of the manner of public worship in the primitive Church 275; title: lxxxviii. The collection of alms 276; title: lxxxix. The reason of assembling on Sunday —; title: xc. Justin concludes with desiring that the Christians may not be condemned unheard ; but expresses their resignation to the will of God;; title: and subjoins the Epistle of Adrian in their favour 277; title: The Epistle of Antoninus Pius to the Common Assembly of Asia 278; title: THE APOLOGY OF  TERTULLIAN.; title: i. The Christians, under Severus, not being permitted to speak in their own defence, Tertullian addresses this written Apology to the Governors of Proconsular Africa. He shews that their religion, founded on truth, requires no favour but demands justice 280; title: — The hatred which her enemies entertain towards her is manifestly unjust 282; title: — All Christians glory in their faith 284; title: ii. Christians, even if guilty, ought to be treated in the same manner as other criminals 286; title: — The edict of Trajan was self-contradictory    287; title: — Other criminals are tortured to make them confess ; Christians, to make them deny 288; title: — The name alone of Christian, not the fact of professing Christianity, is made a crime 291; title: iii. The enemies of Christianity bear unwilling testimony to its excellence 293; title: — Yet permit their hatred to prevail over the benefit which they derive from Christianity    294; title: — The name of Christian is harmless, both in its own signification, and as it relates to its author 295; title: iii. And is therefore no reasonable ground of accusation 296; title: iv. Tertullian prepares to answer the charges against Christianity 297; title: — But first shews that, even if laws exist against the Christians, they may be repealed, as many laws have been 298; title: — And that laws, which would punish a name, not a crime, are foolish as well as unjust 302; title: v. The gods of the Romans could not be consecrated without the consent of the Senate; title: — Tiberius is said to have proposed to introduce Jesus Christ among the Roman gods 303; title: - The bad emperors were persecutors, the good, protectors, of the Christians 305; title: — The Thundering Legion 306; title: vi. The Romans had abrogated many laws of their ancestors ; and greatly degenerated from their severity of life 309; title: vii. Tertullian refers to many calumnies brought against the Christians 313; title: — And demands that they may be investigated 314; title: — Common fame is their only accuser 315; title: viii. These accusations are in themselves incredible 318; title: ix. Heathen nations themselves practised the atrocities of which they accused the Christians 322; title: — As human sacrifices 323; title: — The tasting of blood 324; title: — And the crime of incest 327; title: — From all which Christians are free 328; title: x. Christians are accused of neither worshipping the gods nor sacrificing to the safety of the Emperors 329; title: They do this, knowing them to be no gods    —; title: Thus, Saturn was the oldest of the heathen deities, and yet was a man 330; title: xi. Those persons, who were once men, were never made gods 333; title: xi. This supposition would imply the existence of a Supreme Deity, who would have no need of dead men ; and would certainly not have chosen such men for their virtues. 333; title: xii. The absurdity of idol-worship 338; title: xiii. They who conceive these false gods to be objects of worship, do themselves neglect and insult them 341; title: xiv. Their sacrifices are disgraceful ; and their mythological history derogatory to the dignity of their gods 245; title: xv. Their gods were made the subject of ridicule in their fables and dramas 348; title: — Their temples were constantly desecrated 350; title: xvi. Calumnies founded upon the alleged objects of Christian worship —; title: — They are falsely accused of adoring An Asses head 351; title: A Cross 352; title: The Sun 354; title: Or a being of monstrous form 336; title: xvii. The object of the Christian worship is One God, the Creator of all things 358; title: — To whom the soul of man naturally bears witness 359; title: xviii. God hath revealed to us his written word 361; title: — The prophets taught of old 362; title: — These Scriptures were translated from Hebrew into Greek, by the command of Ptolemy 363; title: xix. These Scriptures are most ancient 365; title: — Moses might be proved to have been antecedent to all heathen writers, and philosophers 366; title: xx. The authority of Scripture is proved by prophecy 368; title: xxi. The religion of the Christians must not be confounded with hat of the Jews 370; title: — Christians worship Christ not as a human being, but as God 371; title: — Christ is God, and the Son of God 372; title: xxi. His procession from the Father compared with that of light from the sun 373; title: — Two comings of Christ are predicted 374; title: — The Jews ascribed his miracles to magic 375; title: — They put him to death 376; title: — But he rose from the dead —; title: — And shewed himself to chosen witnesses 377; title: — Pilate wrote an account to Tiberius —; title: — This statement ought at once to repress all false assertions respecting Christianity 378; title: xxii. Tertullian declares his sentiments respecting; title: the existence and occupation of demons 380; title: — And ascribes the ancient oracles to their agency 383; title: xxiii. The demons and the heathen gods were the same 385; title: — Tertullian offers to rest the truth of Christianity on the power of any Christian publicly to expel a demon 386; title: — Jesus Christ is the Virtue, Spirit, Word, Wisdom, Reason, and Son of God 390; title: xxiv. The acknowledgement of inferior gods implies the existence of One superior 392; title: — This God is worshipped by the Christians:; title: and they claim the same right which is allowed all others 393; title: xxv. The great prosperity of the Roman Empire was not the reward of the devotion of the Romans to their gods 395; title: — For the rise of their power preceded the greater part of their worship 398; title: — And their conquests spared not the temples of the gods themselves 399; title: xxvi. It is God, therefore, who rules the world 401; title: xxvii. The Christians cannot be guilty of any offence against gods, who have no existence; title: — The persecution of the Christians is instigated by the malice of demons 404; title: xxviii. Compulsory worship could never be acceptable to the gods 406; title: xxviii. As the Christians are innocent of sacrilege, so also they are not guilty of treason against the Emperors 407; title: xxix. To sacrifice for the Emperors, to those who are no gods, is but a mockery 408; title: xxx. Christians pray constantly to the true God for the Emperors, and for the well-being of the state 411; title: xxxi. This they are commanded to do by their Scriptures 414; title: xxxii. Christians pray for the continuance of the Roman Empire, after which they expect the day of judgment 416; title: xxxiii. Christians reverence the Emperor, as appointed by God: but not as a god 419; title: xxxiv. Augustus would not be called Lord 421; title: xxxv. The immoral festivities of the heathen are a disgrace, rather than an honour, to the Emperor 423; title: — Their congratulations are insincere 425; title: xxxvi. Christians are bound to do good to all men 428; title: xxxvii. If they were enemies of the state, their numbers would enable them to avenge themselves 430; title: — The rapid increase of the number of Christians 431; title: xxxviii. The harmless character of Christians ought to protect them 434; title: xxxix. Christians met constantly for public worship, and reading the Scriptures 436; title: — Elders presided; and distributed the common fund 437; title: — The mutual love of Christians 438; title: — Their simple feast in common, hallowed by prayer, and religious converse 440; title: xl. Public calamities were unjustly ascribed to the Christians 444; title: xli. But rather arise from the impiety of the heathens 448; title: — All calamities are not judgments 449; title: xlii. A refutation of the calumny that Christians were useless members of society 450; title: xliii. Infamous men only had reason to complain of the Christians 454; title: xliv. The innocency of Christians 455; title: xlv. Which arises from the principles which they profess 457; title: xlvi. Christianity is not a species of philosophy 459; title: — Christians are superior to philosophers in their knowledge of God 461; title: — In the purity of their lives —; title: — In humility, and moral virtue 462; title: xlvii. The heathen philosophers borrowed largely from the Scriptures ; but perverted their meaning 465; title: xlviii. Those who, with the Pythagoreans, believe a transmigration of souls, may well believe the possibility of a resurrection 470; title: — The restoration of man to life after death is not so difficult to conceive as his first formation from nothing 472; title: — The changes of the natural world render a resurrection probable 473; title: — The phaenomena of lightning and volcanos may be regarded as affording a presumption that the punishment of the wicked in eternal fire is possible 476; title: xlix. If the opinions of the Christians are prejudices, they are at least innocent 478; title: L. Christians would gladly avoid suffering, although they cheerfully submit to it 480; title: — Their resolution is courage, not obstinacy : and similar to that, which is applauded in others 481; title: — But persecution cannot crush Christianity 482; title: — The blood of Christians is the seed of the faith 484; title: — And their patience under martyrdom the most effectual preacher —; title: APPENDIX.; title: (A) On the preaching of St Paul in the West. 485; title: — The probable duration of St Paul's preaching after his first imprisonment —; title: — Evidence to prove that St Paul visited Spain 486; title: — Evidence in favour of his preaching in Britain. 487; title: (B) On the Epistle of Clement, c. xvi. p. 16 — Passages in which Clement speaks of the Divine nature of Christ 491; title: — Extract from the Epistle to Diognetus 492; title: (C) On Ignatius’s Epistle to the Magnesians, c. viii 495; title: (D) The Letters of the younger Pliny and Trajan respecting the Christians 500; title: ERRATA.
