Excerpt from The Church of the First Three Centuries: A Work Founded on the Sacred Scripture and Early Patristic Writings, and Built of Materials Which Are Presented to the Reader Unwrought, as They Came From the Lips of Inspired Men and Christians Sound in Practice and Orthodox in Faith
The first object of this work, is to exhibit, in the interest of Catholicity, the discipline, rites, usages, and belief, as detailed in the Sacred Scripture, of the primitive followers of Christ.
It was difficult to resist the temptation of passing from the Church of the Scriptures to that of the early Fathers, as it was but natural to hold, that no better interpreters of the sense of the New Testament could be found than these learned and holy men, who touched upon the time when the Apostles wrote and spoke. And, surely, if the patristic pages, reproducing Scriptural images, showed at the same time, a complete picture of what we believe and practise, the argument in favour of Catholicity was irresistible. Therefore, the second and third parts of this work are composed of delineations borrowed from the early Chris tian writers, of the faith and worship of the Church, after the Apostles had been removed from the scene of this world.
