What is Christianity?
A series of lectures delivered by Adolf Harnack at the University of Berlin during the Winter-Term 1899-1900, translated into English by Thomas Bailey Saunders. In this influential work, Harnack seeks to identify the essence of Christianity by stripping away historical accretions and dogmatic developments to focus on the core message of Jesus. The text is divided into sections covering the leading features of Jesus' message—such as the Kingdom of God and the commandment of love—the Gospel's relation to social and legal problems, and the historical development of the Christian religion through the Apostolic Age, Catholicism, and Protestantism.
