Athanasius

c. 296–373 · 20th Pope of Alexandria · 56 works in modern English

Treatises 7
  • Against The HeathenA defense of the Christian faith against pagan idolatry: how humanity turned from God to idols, and how the soul can know God again through creation and the Word.
  • Defence of the Nicene Definition (De Decretis) — Defence of the Nicene DefinitionNewWhy the Council of Nicaea used the unscriptural words 'of the essence' (ousia) and 'one in essence' (homoousios): they say in other words what Scripture says, against the Arians' evasions.
  • Four Discourses Against the Arians 4 parts
    • Discourse IAgainst Arius' Thalia: the Son is eternal and of the Father's own essence, not a creature; Philippians 2:9-10, Psalm 45:7 and Hebrews 1:4 explained.
    • Discourse IIHebrews 3:2, Acts 2:36 and Proverbs 8:22 ('The Lord created me') explained: such words refer to the Incarnation, for the Son is not a creature.
    • Discourse IIIThe Father and the Son are one in essence and in each other (John 10:30, 14:10, 17:3); the human weaknesses of Christ belong to the flesh He took.
    • Discourse IVThe Word is a real, co-eternal Son and not a passing power of God, against both Arians and Marcellus (authorship of this discourse is debated).
  • On The Councils
  • On the IncarnationWhy the Word of God became man: creation, the fall, and how Christ's death and resurrection defeat death and restore the image of God in us.
