Saint Ignatius of Antioch (30-107)

Epistle to the Antiochians

(Spurious)

Translated by Alexander Roberts and James Donaldson

Chapter 7


Ye have been the disciples of Paul and Peter; do not lose what was committed to your trust. Keep in remembrance Euodias, your deservedly-blessed pastor, into whose hands the government over you was first entrusted by the apostles. Let us not bring disgrace upon our Father. Let us prove ourselves His true-born children, and not bastards. Ye know after what manner I have acted among you. The things which, when present, I spoke to you, these same, when absent, I now write to you. “If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema.” Be ye followers of me. My soul be for yours, when I attain to Jesus. Remember my bonds.
