This short treatise was composed by Tertullian (Quintus Septimius Florens Tertullianus; 155 - 240 AD) on how Christians should deal with heresy and heretical arguments, mostly from pagans. He argued that the apostles transmitted the truth down to their approved successors, and that essentially no heresy is new. He also asserted that all heresies are condemned by "the sentence and the silence of Holy Scripture." This material is drawn from: The writings of Quintus Sept. Flor. Tertullianus 2 Edinburgh T. and T. Clark 1884 by Peter Holmes (1815-1878), with the original footnotes and Bible references preserved. The work is also illustrated with artwork of the various figures mentioned in the text.

These two short treatises were composed by Tertullian (Quintus Septimius Florens Tertullianus; 155 - 240 AD.) one of the earliest Latin writers of the Christian church, who lived in Carthage, in the Roman province of Africa. The book, "Prescription Against Heretics" deals with how Christians should answer heretical arguments, mostly from the pagans of that time. The other book "Answer to the Jews" discusses how Christ was prefigured in the Torah and how Christianity is a natural consequence of God's divine plan. This material is taken from "The writings of Quintus Sept Flor Tertullianus Edinburgh T and T Clark 1884 by Peter Holmes (1815-1878)." The original footnotes and Bible references are preserved, and the work is illustrated with artwork of the various figures mentioned in the text.

The character of the times in which we live is such as to call forth from us even this admonition, that we ought not to be astonished at the heresies (which abound) neither ought their existence to surprise us, for it was foretold that they should come to pass; nor the fact that they subvert the faith of some, for their final cause is, by affording a trial to faith, to give it also the opportunity of being "approved." -Tertullian
