Church and Gnosis: A Study of Christian Thought and Speculation in the Second Century is a scholarly book written by F.C. Burkitt and published in 1932. The book examines the relationship between the early Christian Church and the Gnostic movement in the second century. Burkitt explores the various theological and philosophical ideas that emerged during this time period, including the nature of God, the role of Christ, and the concept of salvation. He also delves into the writings of prominent figures such as Valentinus, Marcion, and Irenaeus, and analyzes their influence on Christian thought. Throughout the book, Burkitt argues that the Church and Gnosis were not entirely separate entities, but rather existed in a complex and interconnected relationship. He also emphasizes the importance of understanding the historical context in which these ideas developed. Church and Gnosis is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the early history of Christianity and the evolution of Christian thought.The Morse Lectures for 1931.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
