Examining The Disciples Of The Disciples: Same Message Throughout Time

In this new video, we delve into the fascinating history of early Christianity, focusing on the lesser-known figures: the disciples of the disciples. By tracing their influence and teachings, this video illuminates the continuity of the Christian faith from its inception through the establishment of the canon.

The journey begins with the original apostles, who, after Christ’s ascension, spread the Gospel across the known world. But the video goes deeper, highlighting key figures like Polycarp and Ignatius, who were directly connected to the original disciples. Their writings and teachings helped preserve the core messages of Christianity amidst early challenges and heresies.

One of the most intriguing aspects discussed is the formation of the New Testament canon. In this video I outline how early church leaders discerned which texts to include, emphasizing their reliance on apostolic authority and widespread acceptance within the community. This process not only solidified the foundation of Christian doctrine but also illustrated the early church’s commitment to maintaining the truth of Christ’s message.

Ultimately, the video presents a compelling argument for the authenticity of Christianity. By showcasing the unwavering commitment of these early figures and their role in preserving the teachings of Jesus, it underscores the historical reliability of the faith. For anyone seeking to understand the roots of Christianity, this exploration of its earliest influencers is both enlightening and affirming.

People like Iranaeus, Clement, and Ignatius wrote many letters and quoted much of what BECAME to be known as the Bible or canon of Scripture. And even their writings are not Scripture themselves, they much of the earliest confirmation of was already considered Scripture before the close of the second century.
