Smith offers a groundbreaking exploration of the foundational beliefs that defined first-century Christianity, rooted solely in the Old and New Testaments. Unlike traditional systematic theologies that blend scripture with post-biblical ecumenical creeds and denominational confessions, this work focuses exclusively on the authentic doctrines of the Early Church. With precision and clarity, Smith examines eight core theological pillars-theology, anthropology, hamartiology, christology, pneumatology, soteriology, ecclesiology, and eschatology-revealing the Early Church's vibrant understanding of the only true God, humanity, sin, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, salvation, the church, and the kingdom of God. Written to be accessible to a wide range of readers and believers, this volume offers the opportunity to rediscover the beliefs of the early Christians, inspiring a biblically grounded spirituality marked by faithfulness to Jesus Christ and his apostles.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDustin R.
