This work is a translation of Celsus' The True Teaching--the very first extensive criticism of Christianity, probably written in the late second century CE. In contrast to the rendition of this work by R. J. Hoffmann, Dr. Litwa offers a literal--though not wooden--translation of Celsus in an attempt to represent its original language and force. Celsus was eloquent, witty, and sharp-witted. There is, accordingly, no need to improve on his language or rhetoric, let alone to add or rearrange material. Litwa simply tries to represent The True Teaching—in all its biting wit and force. The ...

Yet, many people still have questions. What are the seven sacraments? When did Jesus institute the sacraments? How did the Church recognize the sacraments? Why should Christians receive the sacraments? Father Pierre Pourrat (1871-1957) answers these ...
