Over the past 2000 years, a great divergence in beliefs, doctrine and tradition has arisen within Christianity. Do you know that there are more than 45,000 different sects and denominations in existence today, with each bringing forth their own private form of Christianity? Is this what God intended? Where is the line drawn between the doctrine of Christ and the traditions of men? As Christians, we are told that if we believe, we will be saved; But does it matter what you believe? It is time to walk away from the doctrines of men and return to what was taught from the beginning, by the first Christians.
Wisdom from the First Christians invites you on a journey through time, as we go back to the 1st century AD to take a look into the minds of the first Christians. These men worked, lived and were discipled by the Apostles. They did not just read the bible, but were there to interact with and ask questions of the Apostles. Some of them personally knew Jesus! Their words present a clear picture of what they were taught, how they interpreted the scriptures and what they believed. Some of these men are commended in the bible! Their words were held as scripture for hundreds of years in the early churches and they continue to offer great insight and inspiration for Christians today.
Within this radiant book of wisdom, you will find:
The Epistle of Barnabas, 1st and 2nd Clement, 5 letters of Ignatius, The Shepherd of Hermas Trilogy, Polycarp to the Ephesians, and two long lost epistles of the Apostle Paul, one of which is referred to in Colossians 4:16.
Introductions for each book, as well as the history of how they have been regarded and used by the churches throughout the centuries.
A large section of quotes, chronologically arranged by topic, starting with the men who were there in the first century, followed by those who remained faithful on that topic for several centuries thereafter.
A must read for all Christians, and non-Christians.
If the doctrines you hold are not sourced with the early Christians, I ask, from where and in what are they originated, and are they truly Christian?
