To the Ephesians

St Ignatius of Antioch, Lake, Loeb 1912

Chapter 13

Exhortation to more frequent assemblies

Seek, then, to come together more frequently to give thanks1 and glory to God. For when you gather together frequently the powers of Satan are destroyed, and his mischief is brought to nothing, by the concord of your faith.

There is nothing better than peace, by which every war in heaven and on earth is abolished.

Notes

  1. It is probable that there is here an allusion to the Eucharist.
