    About this series

    C. S. Lewis wrote:

    "We all, therefore, need the books that will correct the characteristic mistakes of our own period. And that means the old books. We may be sure that the characteristic blindness of the twentieth century – the blindness about which posterity will ask, ‘But how could they have thought that?’ – lies where we have never suspected it… None of us shall fully escape this blindness.

    The only pallative is to keep the clean sea breeze of the centuries blowing through our minds, and this can be done only by reading old books."

    (CS Lewis, Introducción a St. Athanasius' On The Encarnation, Vladimir's Press, 2002)

    Protestantism in Spain and South America suffers from a severe problem: it ignores its big writers, its classic writers, its old writers, that because of their years gathers wisdom and vital experience. Although there is nothing more certain than the fact that the Scriptures are and should be the fundamental pillar of faith and practice, it is no less true that the classical authors are sources of illustration that we should not despise and go to "drink" from them more often. Only in this way will the "the clean sea breeze of the centuries" be able to clear away our characteristic blindness of the present century. According to the Bible, sometimes "the ancient paths" (Jeremiah 6:16) is the one that best shines light to the path and gratifies the soul.

    The objective of the Library of Christian Classics, edited by Abba, is to recover and make available to the Hispanic people the wisdom that God gave our ancestors in faith.
