Excerpt: ...and who so lives as Christ has directed. For we do not receive them as ordinary food, or ordinary drink, but as by the Word of God, Jesus Christ our Saviour was made flesh, and had both flesh and blood for our salvation; so also the food which was blessed by the prayer of the word which proceedeth from Him, and from which our flesh and blood by assimilation receive nourishment, is, we are taught, both the flesh and blood of that Jesus who was made flesh. For the Apostles, in the records which they made, and which are called Gospels, have declared, that Jesus commanded them to do as follows: --" He took bread and gave thanks, and said, this do in remembrance of Me, this is My body, and in like manner He took the cup and blessed it, and said, this is My blood: " and gave it to them alone. And we after these things henceforward always remind one another of them: and those of us who have the means, assist all who are in want; and we are always together; and in all our oblations we bless the Maker of all things, through His Son Jesus Christ and through the Holy Ghost. And on the day which is called Sunday, there is an assembly in the same place of all who live in cities, or in country districts; and the records of the Apostles, or the writings of the Prophets are read as long as we have time. Then the reader concludes, and the president verbally instructs, and exhorts us to the imitation of these excellent things. Then we all together rise and offer up our prayers; and, as I said before, when we have concluded our prayer, bread is brought, and wine, and water; and the president in like manner, offers up prayers and thanksgivings, with all his strength; and the people give their assent by saying Amen; and there is a distribution and a...

Download or read book Early History of the Christian Church written by Monsignor Louis Duchesne and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-17 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early History of the Christian Church: From Its Foundation to the End of the Third Century At the time of Diocletian's persecution, when the churches were destroyed, the sacred books burned, and the Christians proscribed, or forced to apostasize, one of their number was quietly working away at the first history of Christianity. His was not a mind of the highest order, but he was patient, hard-working, and conscientious, and during many long years, he had collected materials for his contemplated book. He succeeded in saving these materials from the general shipwreck, and even in turning them to account. Thus Eusebius of Cæsarea became the father of ecclesiastical history. And the first duty of those who take up the same task again - so long after, but in days not much less dark - is to recall his name and his incomparable services. But for his unrivalled diligence in searching through those Palestinian libraries, where the learned Origen and Bishop Alexander had collected the whole Christian literature of early days, our knowledge of the first three centuries of the Church's life would be small indeed. We cannot of course but lament the destruction of these libraries, yet, thanks to him, and to the remarkable fragments he preserved, we can appreciate in some measure what they were. Eusebius, however, is not the only witness to the treasures of this ancient literature. Several of the early books he mentions have come down to us, and others have been read, and passed on, by painstaking students like St Epiphanius, St Jerome, and Photius.
