Tertullian

 Tertullian


Tertullian was a Christian individual that wrote about how Christianity speaks truth. Tertullian was opposed by idolatrous Gentiles and Jewish individuals for arguing in favor of Christianity. Tertullian wrote about how idol worship does not make sense. Flavius Josephus also wrote about how idol worship does not make sense. This is described in the myths of pagan Roman and Greek idolatry where idols are worshiped instead of the true GOD of gods, GOD Almighty.

Josephus was also opposed by idolatrous Jewish individuals for writing about Jewish history and Christianity. Idolatrous Jewish individuals opposed his writings for choosing to not revolt against Rome and writing about Christianity. Roman individuals opposed Josephus for writing favorably about Jewish history. Despite opposition by both types of idolators, Josephus wrote about how idol worship does not make sense and also how the worship of GOD Almighty and Christianity makes sense logically.

Tertullian also was opposed by idolators from both Gentile and Jewish ethnicities. Despite opposition, Tertullian also described how Christianity makes sense to both Gentiles and Jewish individuals. Tertullian spoke truth about how Christianity seeks to allow individuals to worship GOD Almighty and live with serenity amongst each other. Tertullian denoted how idol worship made individuals practice sin.

While being criticized by both Gentile and Jewish idolators, Tertullian kept writing and speaking about the importance of GOD Almighty and Christianity. Tertullian caused for individuals to convert to Christianity despite being criticized. Tertullian and Flavius Josephus are individuals that wrote about the importance of Christianity in the first century. Both described the importance of worshiping GOD Almighty over idols. 

"...The cause of such irregular and erroneous conceptions of the deity? For my part, I trace it to the ignorance of the true nature of GOD with their legislators entered on their task, and to their failure to formulate even such correct knowledge of it as they were able to attain and to make the rest of their constitution conform to it. Instead, as if this was the most trifling of details, they allowed the poets to introduce what gods they chose, subject to all the passions, and the orators to pass decrees for entering the name of any suitable foreign god..."- Josephus Against Apion [Joseph reproves idol worship from mythology]
