Against Celsus Book 7
by Origen of Alexandria
In Against Celsus, a seminal work preserved in its entirety in Greek, the Church Father Origen of Alexandria passionately defends Christianity against the scathing critiques of the pagan philosopher Celsus, written around 248 AD. Celsuss treatise, The True Word, launches a fierce attack on Christian beliefs, branding them as irrational and its followers as uneducated and deluded. He accused Jesus of using black magic for his miracles and borrowing teachings from Plato, while warning that Christianity threatened to erode traditional values and beliefs. Origens response not only addresses these charges but also serves as a powerful defense of the Christian faith and its significance in the ancient world.
