who ever is interested in the life of early christians, what happenwd to the jews who didn't convert to christianity, catholicism, sane orthodoxy, will love this books. The reader is really good too.

Some wonderful information related that is encouraging and edifying. Particularly the faith of the martyrs that overcame all that was thrown against them. Glory to God for all things!

Excellent content and well read.


(5 stars)

I was invited by the descriptions of the tortures the early Christians endured. Not for the faint of heart.


(5 stars)

After hearing/reading this you would have to take complete leave of their intellect to say the first Christians weren't Catholic.
