I converted a year and a half ago and have felt I’m now part of something special and timeless. Thanks for confirming my feelings!

Great post! I am a convert because I want to hear the same air moving in the teachings today that moved when Jesus spoke to the disciples.

Lozen – First, the death of the last apostles and final books of the Bible was toward the end of the 1st century, so perhaps 60 years before this letter. Second, there is lots of other material, including the new testament itself which dates to the times of the apostles, of course. Third, Christianity has historically documented roots which go back to the beginning of Judaism (long before Christ lived on Earth) and, ultimately, it really goes back all the way to the first human beings. Fourth, the fact that people have abused the bible to justify their own beliefs proves nothing about Christianity itself. Every good thing has been abused.

I feel a connection to all buddhists and the buddhist faith which existed before christianity. Hindus feel that about their religion which existed long before christianity. 155 AD was 155 years after the supposed life of Yeshua! Think how different everything was in this country 155 years ago! 1856 in the USA and the bible was being used to proclaim slavery was ordained by god.

What a sensation- a pride and peace of heart, to see how the Holy Mass remained nearly the same for all this years!

Placing emphasis on the continuity of the Liturgy through the ages is a great evangelization tool. It has been more effective at bringing people into the Church than the almost constant infighting about post VII changes to the “modern” counter-reformation Mass established in the late 1500′s.
As the new monasticism continues to grow in urban areas among young people and protestants, we are wise to pay attention to the appeal that the early christians and the desert fathers have to the unchurched.
