Octavius

Robert Ernest Wallis

0/5 ( ratings)

Octavius is one of the earliest known works of Christian apologetics. It depicts a conversation between Caecilius Natalis, a roman taking the side of paganism, and Octavius Januarius, a foreigner and friend of the author, taking the side of Christianity.

The discussion between these two figures is moderated by our author and covers many different themes relevant today. The points of agnosticism, or doubting the possibility of arriving at knowledge of the divine, the role of wealth and hardships in the Christian life, and the nature of God are all explored.

It is noted that the breadth of concepts discussed by our two advocates is limited; for instance, the nature and person of Christ is not well detailed. However, the richness of the ideas which were discussed as well as the snapshot of history contained make this book a fascinating read for all Christians.
