The Didache: The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles

Book Synopsis: There are two ways: one of life and one of death – and there is a big difference between the two. ~ The Didache

Have you ever wondered how Christianity was really practiced in the First Century?

Have you ever wondered:

• How Christians should behave
• What Christians believe
• What is the correct way to baptize
• How to Celebrate the Lord's Supper
• How Christians are to worship together
• The signs of the Return of Jesus Christ

Have you been searching for a simple manual on how to be Christian?

The Didache means “The Teaching” – Christian tradition has claimed that “The Teaching” is nothing less than the teaching of the Twelve Apostles to the early-Church. The Didache was considered by many in the early-Church as part of the New Testament. It fell out of the New Testament as time passed, but continued to serve as a Christian manual. The Didache was lost for centuries until 1873 when a Greek manuscript was rediscovered. The Didache serves as an important historical document in the early-Church, as well as providing solutions to practical Church questions such as does a person have to be dunked during baptism, or can water simply be poured over the head? The answer may surprise you.

This copy has been translated by R. Joseph Owles from the Greek into every day, contemporary language, and is formatted in a way that makes it easy to both read and understand.

If you are interested in the history of the early Church, or if you are just looking for a simple guide to Christian teaching, then this book is for you.
