Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Translation of the Epistles of Clement of Rome, Polycarp and Ignatius; And of the Apologies of Justin Martyr and Tertullian: With an Introduction, and Brief Notes Illustrative of the Ecclesiastical History of the First Two Centuries In the history of the Christian Church, there are few periods of greater interest and importance than that which succeeded the death of the Apostles. As long as any of those holy men survived, who had personally received instruction from our Lord, they connected the Church on earth with its spiritual Head. The miraculous powers with which the Apostles were endowed, and the undisputed authority with which their high office invested them, placed them in a position, which none of their successors could ever occupy. In cases of difficulty and doubt, an appeal to their more than human wisdom was the last resource: in times of peril, their example and their prayers strengthened the wavering, and confirmed the faithful: and at all periods they were justly regarded as the pillars, on which the Christian Church securely rested. But when the Apostles were removed from the scene of their earthly labours, the condition of the Church was changed.
