THE EPISTLE OF IGNATIUS TO THE SMYRAEANS SHORTER AND LONGER VERSIONS.
Ignatius, who is also called Theophorus, to the Church of God the Father, and of the beloved Jesus Christ, which has through mercy obtained every kind of gift, which is filled with faith and love, and is deficient in no gift, most worthy of God, and adorned with holiness:(1) the Church which is at Smyrna, in Asia, wishes abundance of happiness, through the immaculate Spirit and word of God. Ignatius, who is also called Theophorus, to the Church of God the most high Father, and His beloved Son Jesus Christ, which has through mercy obtained every kind of gift, which is filled with faithand love, and is deficient in no gift, most worthy of God, and adorned with holiness:(1) the Church which is at Smyrna, in Asia, wishes abundance of happiness, through the immaculate Spirit and word of God.
CHAP. I.--THANKS TO GOD FOR YOUR FAITH.
I glorify God, even Jesus Christ, who has given
you such wisdom. For I have observed that ye are perfected
in an immoveable faith, as if ye were nailed to the
cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, both in the flesh and
in the spirit, and are established in love through
the blood of Christ, being fully persuaded with respect
to our Lord, that He was truly of the seed of David
according to the flesh,(3) and the Son of God according
to the will and power(4) of God; that He was truly
born of a virgin, was baptized by John, in order that
all righteousness might be fulfilled(5) by Him; and
was truly, under Pontius Pilate and Herod the tetrarch,
nailed[to the cross] for us in His flesh. Of this fruit(7)
we are by His divinely-blessed passion, that He might
set up a standard s for all ages, through His resurrection,
to all His holy and faithful[followers], whether among
Jews or Gentiles, in the one body of His Church.
I glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
who by Him has given you such wisdom. For I have observed
that ye are perfected in an immoveable faith, as if
ye were nailed to the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ,
both in the flesh and in the spirit, and are established
in love through the blood of Christ, being fully persuaded,
in very truth, with respect to our Lord Jesus Christ,
that He was the Son of God, "the first-born of
every creature,''(2) God the Word, the only-begotten
Son, and was of the seed of David according to the
flesh,(3) by the Virgin Mary; was baptized by John,
that all righteousness might be fulfilled(5) by Him;
that He lived a life of holiness without sin, and was
truly, under Pontius Pilate and Herod the tetrarch,
nailed[to the cross] for us in His flesh. From whom
we also derive our being,(6) from His divinely-blessed
passion, that He might set up a standard for the ages,
through His resurrection, to all His holy and faithful[followers],
whether among Jews or Gentiles, in the one body of
His Church.

CHAP. II.--CHRIST'S TRUE PASSION.
Now, He suffered all these things for our sakes,
that we might be saved. And He suffered truly, even
as also He truly raised up Himself, not, as certain
unbelievers maintain, that He only seemed to suffer,
as they themselves only seem to be[Christians]. And
as they believe, so shall it happen unto them, when
they shall be divested of their bodies, and be mere
evil spirits.(3)
Now, He suffered all these things for us; and He
suffered them really, and not in appearance only, even
as also He truly rose again. But not, as some of the
unbelievers, who are ashamed of the formation of man,
and the cross, and death itself, affirm, that in appearance
only, and not in truth, He took a body of the Virgin,
and suffered only in appearance, forgetting, as they
do, Him who said, "The Word was made flesh;"(1)
and again, "Destroy this temple, and in three
days I will raise it up;"(2) and once more, "If
I be lifted up from the earth, I will draw all men
unto Me."(4) The Word therefore did dwell in flesh,
for "Wisdom built herself an house."(5) The
Word raised up again His own temple on the third day,
when it had been destroyed by the Jews fighting against
Christ. The Word, when His flesh was lifted up, after
the manner of the brazen serpent in the wilderness,
drew all men to Himself for their eternal salvation.(6)
CHAP. III.--CHRIST WAS POSSESSED OF A BODY AFTER HIS RESURRECTION.
For I know that after His resurrection also He was
still possessed of flesh,(7) and I believe that He
is so now. When, for instance, He came to those who
were with Peter, He said to them, "Lay hold, handle
Me, and see that I am not an incorporeal spirit."(8)
And immediately they touched Him, and believed, being
convinced both by His flesh and spirit. For this cause
also they despised death, and were found its conquerors.(12)
And after his resurrection He did eat and drink with
them, as being possessed of flesh, although spiritually
He was united to the Father.
And I know that He was possessed of a body not only
in His being born and crucified, but I also know that
He was so after His resurrection, and believe that
He is so now. When, for instance, He came to those
who were with Peter, He said to them, "Lay hold,
handle Me, and see that I am not an incorporeal spirit."(8)
"For a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye
see Me have."(9) And He says to Thomas, "Reach
hither thy finger into the print of the nails, and
reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into My side;"(10)
and immediately they believed that He was Christ. Wherefore
Thomas also says to Him, "My Lord, and my God."(11)
And on this account also did they despise death, for
it were too little to say, indignities and stripes.
Nor was this all; but also after He had shown Himself
to them, that He had risen indeed, and not in appearance
only, He both ate and drank with them during forty
entire days. And thus was He, with the flesh, received
up in their sight unto Him that sent Him, being with
that same flesh to come again, accompanied by glory
and power. For, say the[holy] oracles, "This same
Jesus, who is taken up from you into heaven, shall
so come, in like manner as ye have seen Him go unto
heaven."(13) But if they say that He will come
at the end of the world without a body, how shall those
"see Him that pierced Him,"(14) and when
they recognise Him, "mourn for themselves?"(15)
For incorporeal beings have neither form nor figure,
nor the aspect(16) of an animal possessed of shape,
because their nature is in itself simple.
CHAP. IV.--BEWARE OF THESE HERETICS.
I give you these instructions, beloved, assured
that ye also hold the same opinions[as I do]. But I
I give you these instructions, beloved, assured
that ye also hold the same opinions[as I do]. But I
guard you beforehand from these beasts in the shape
of men, from
88
guard you beforehand from those beasts in the shape of men, whom you must not only not receive, but, if it be possible, not even meet with; only you must pray to God for them, if by any means they may be brought to repentance, which, however, will be very difficult. Yet Jesus Christ, who is our true life, has the power of[effecting] this. But if these things were done by our Lord only in appearance, then am I also only in appearance bound. And why have I also surrendered myself to death, to fire, to the sword, to the wild beasts? But,[in fact,] he who is near to the sword is near to God; he that is among the wild beasts is in company with God; provided only he be so m the name of Jesus Christ. I undergo all these things that I may suffer together with Him,(1) He who became a perfect man inwardly strengthening me.(2) whom you must not only turn away, but even flee from them. Only you must pray for them, if by any means they may be brought to repentance. For if the Lord were in the body in appearance only, and were crucified in appearance only, then am I also bound in appearance only. And why have I also surrendered myself to death, to fire, to the sword, to the wild beasts? But,[in fact,] I endure all things for Christ, not in appearance only, but in reality, that I may suffer together with Him, while He Himself inwardly strengthens me; for of myself I have no such ability.
CHAP. V.--THEIR DANGEROUS ERRORS,
Some ignorantly(3) deny Him, or rather have been
denied by Him, being the advocates of death rather
than of the truth. These persons neither have the prophets
persuaded, nor the law of Moses, nor the Gospel even
to this day, nor the sufferings we have individually
endured. For they think also the same thing regarding
us.(4) For what does any one profit me, if he commends
me, but blasphemes my Lord, not confessing that He
was[truly] possessed of a body?(5) But he who does
not acknowledge this, has in fact altogether denied
Him, being enveloped in death.(6) I have not, however,
thought good to write the names of such persons, inasmuch
as they are unbelievers. Yea, far be it from me to
make any mention of them, until they repent and return
to[a true belief in] Christ's passion, which is our
resurrection.
Some have ignorantly denied Him, and advocate falsehood

Gospel even to this day, nor the sufferings we have

thing regarding us. For what does it profit, if any
one commends me, but blasphemes my Lord, not owning
Him to be God incarnate?(5) He that does not confess
this, has in fact altogether denied Him, being enveloped
in death. I have not, however, thought good to write
the names of such persons, inasmuch as they are unbelievers;
and far be it from me to make any mention of them,
until they repent.
CHAP. VI--UNBELIEVERS IN THE BLOOD OF CHRIST SHALL BE CONDEMNED.
Let no man deceive himself. Both the things which
are in heaven, and the glorious angels,(7) and rulers,
both visible and invisible, if they believe not in
the blood of Christ, shall, in
Let no man deceive himself. Unless he believes that
Christ Jesus has lived in the flesh, and shall confess
His cross and passion, and the blood which He shed
for the salvation of the world, he shall not obtain
eternal life, whether he be a king, or a priest, or
a ruler, or a private
89
consequence, incur condemnation.(1) "He that is able to receive it, let him receive it."(2) Let not[high] place puff any one up: for that which is worth all is a faith and love, to which nothing is to be preferred. But consider those who are of a different opinion with respect to the grace of Christ which has come unto us, how opposed they are to the will of God. They have no regard for love; no care for the widow, or the orphan, or the oppressed; of the bond, or of the free; of the hungry, or of the thirsty. person, a master or a servant, a man or a woman. "He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.''(2) Let no man's place, or dignity, or riches, puff him up; and let no man's low condition or poverty abase him. For the chief points are faith towards God, hope towards Christ, the enjoyment of those good things for which we look, and love towards God and our neighbour. For, "Thou shall love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and thy neighbour as thyself."(4) And the Lord says, "This is life eternal, to know the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom He has sent."(5) And again, "A new commandment give I unto you, that ye love one another. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets."(6) Do ye, therefore, notice those who preach other doctrines, how they affirm that the Father of Christ cannot be known, and how they exhibit enmity and deceit in their dealings with one another. They have no regard for love; they despise the good things we expect hereafter; they regard present things as if they were durable; they ridicule him that is in affliction; they laugh at him that is in bonds.
CHAP. VII.--LET US STAND ALOOF FROM SUCH HERETICS.
They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer,(7) because they confess not the Eucharist to be the flesh of our Saviour Jesus Christ, which suffered for our sins, and which the Father, of His goodness, raised up again. Those, therefore, who speak against this gift of God, incur death(11) in the midst of their disputes. But it were better for them to treat it with respect,(13) that they also might rise again. It is fitting, therefore, that ye should keep aloof from such persons, and not to speak of(15) them either in private or in public, but to give heed to the prophets, and above all, to the Gospel, in which the passion[of Christ] has been revealed to us, and the resurrection has been fully proved.(16) But avoid all divisions, as the beginning of evils. They are ashamed of the cross; they mock at the passion; they make a jest of the resurrection. They are the offspring of that spirit who is the author of all evil, who led Adam,(8) by means of his wife, to transgress the commandment, who slew Abel by the hands of Cain, who fought against Job, who was the accuser of Joshua(9) the son of Josedech, who sought to ''sift the faith"(10)of the apostles, who stirred up the multitude of the Jews against the Lord, who also now "worketh in the children of disobedience;(12)from whom the Lord Jesus Christ will deliver us, who prayed that the faith of the apostles might not fail,(14) not because He was not able of Himself to preserve it, but because He rejoiced in the pre-eminence of the Father. It is fitting, therefore, that ye should keep aloof from such persons, and neither in private nor in public to talk with(15) them; but to give heed to the law, and the prophets, and to those who have preached to you the word of salvation. But flee from all abominable heresies, and those that cause schisms, as the beginning of evils.
CHAP. VIII.--LET NOTHING BE DONE WITHOUT THE BISHOP.
See that ye all follow the bishop, even as Jesus
Christ does the Father, and the presbytery as ye would
the apostles; and reverence the deacons, as being the
institution(17) of God. Let no man do anything connected
with the Church without the bishop. Let that be deemed
a proper(18) Eucharist, which is[administered] either
See that ye all follow the bishop, even as Christ
Jesus does the Father, and the presbytery as ye would
the apostles. Do ye also reverence the deacons, as
those that carry out[through their office] the appointment
of God. Let no man do anything connected with the Church
without the bishop. Let that be deemed a proper(18)
Eucharist, which is[administered] either by the bishop,
or by one to whom he has entrusted it. Wherever the
bishop shall appear, there let the multitude[of the
people] also be;
90
by the bishop, or by one to whom he has entrusted it. Wherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude[of the people] also be; even as, wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church. It is not lawful without the bishop either to baptize or to celebrate a love-feast; but whatsoever he shall approve of, that is also pleasing to God, so that everything that is done may be secure and valid.(2) even as where Christ is, there does all the heavenly host stand by, waiting upon Him as the Chief Captain of the Lord's might, and the Governor of every intelligent nature. It is not lawful without the bishop either to baptize, or to offer, or to present sacrifice, or to celebrate a love-feast.(1) But that which seems good to him, is also well-pleasing to God, that everything ye do may be secure and valid.
CHAP. IX.--HONOUR THE BISHOP.
Moreover,(3) it is in accordance with reason that
we should return to soberness[of conduct], and, while
yet we have opportunity, exercise repentance towards
God. It is well to reverence(5) both God and the bishop.
He who honours the bishop has been honoured by God;
he who does anything without the knowledge of the bishop,
does[in reality] serve the devil. Let all things, then,
abound to you through grace, for ye are worthy. Ye
have refreshed me in all things, and Jesus Christ[shall
refresh] you. Ye have loved me when absent as well
as when present. May God recompense you, for whose
sake, while ye endure all things, ye shall attain unto
Him.
Moreover, it is in accordance with reason that we
should return to soberness[of conduct], and, while
yet we have opportunity, exercise repentance towards
God. For "in Hades there is no one who can confess
his sins."(4) For "behold the man, and his
work is before him."(6) And[the Scripture saith],
"My son, honour thou God and the king."(7)
And say I, Honour thou God indeed, as the Author and
Lord of all things, but the bishop as the high-priest,
who bears the image of God--of God. inasmuch as he
is a ruler, and of Christ, in his capacity of a priest.
After Him, we must also honour the king. For there
is no one superior to God, or even like to Him, among
all the beings that exist. Nor is there any one in
the Church greater than the bishop, who ministers as
a priest to God for the salvation of the whole world.
Nor, again, is there any one among rulers to be compared
with the king, who secures peace and good order to
those over whom he rules. He who honours the bishop
shall be honoured by God, even as he that dishonours
him shall be punished by God. For if he that rises
up against kings is justly held worthy of punishment,
inasmuch as he dissolves public order, of how much
sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy,(8)
who presumes to do anything without the bishop, thus
both destroying the[Church's] unity, and throwing its
order into confusion? For the priesthood is the very
highest point of all good things among men, against
which whosoever is mad enough to strive, dishonours
not man, but God, and Christ Jesus, the First-born,
and the only High Priest, by nature, of the Father.
Let all things therefore be done by you with good order
in Christ. Let the laity be subject to the deacons;
the deacons to the presbyters; the presbyters to the
bishop; the bishop to Christ, even as He is to the
Father. As ye, brethren, have refreshed me, so will
Jesus Christ refresh you. Ye have loved me when absent,
as well as when present. God will recompense you, for
whose sake ye have shown such kindness towards His
prisoner. For even if I am not worthy of it, yet your
zeal[to help me] is an admirable(9) thing. For "he
who honours a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall
receive a prophet's reward."(10) It is manifest
also, that he who honours a prisoner of Jesus Christ
shall receive the reward of the martyrs.
91
CHAP. X.--ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF THEIR KINDNESS.
Ye have done well in receiving Philo and Rheus Agathopus
as servants(1) of Christ our God, who have followed
me for the sake of God, and who give thanks to the
Lord in your behalf, because ye have in every way refreshed
them. None of these things shall be lost to you. May
my spirit be for you,(3) and my bonds, which ye have
not despised or been ashamed of; nor shall Jesus Christ,
our perfect hope, be ashamed of you.
Ye have done well in receiving Philo, and Gaius,
and Agathopus, who, being the servants(1) of Christ,
have followed me for the sake of God, and who greatly
bless the Lord in your behalf, because ye have in every
way refreshed them. None of those things which ye have
done to them shall be passed by without being reckoned
unto you. "The Lord grant" to you "that
ye may find mercy of the Lord in that day!"(2)
May my spirit be for you,(3) and my bonds, which ye
have not despised or been ashamed of. Wherefore, neither
shall Jesus Christ, our perfect hope, be ashamed of
you.
CHAP. XI.--REQUEST TO THEM TO SEND A MESSENGER TO ANTIOCH.
Your prayer has reached to the Church which is at
Antioch in Syria. Coming from that place bound with
chains, most acceptable to God,(4) I salute all; I
who am not worthy to be styled from thence, inasmuch
as I am the least of them. Nevertheless, according
to the will of God, I have been thought worthy[of this
honour], not that I have any sense(5)[of having deserved
it], but by the grace of God, which I wish may be perfectly
given to me, that through your prayers I may attain
to God. In order, therefore, that your work may be
complete both on earth and in heaven, it is fitting
that, for the honour of God, your Church should elect
some worthy delegate;(6) so that he, journeying into
Syria, may congratulate them that they are[now] at
peace, and are restored to(7) their proper greatness,
and that their proper constitution(8) has been re-established
among them. It seems then to me a becoming thing,
that you should send some one of your number with an
epistle, so that, in company with them, he may rejoice(9)
over the tranquility which, according to the will of
God, they have obtained, and because that, through
your prayers, they have now reached
the harbour. As persons who are perfect, ye should also
aim at(10) those things which are perfect. For when
ye are desirous to do well, God is also ready to assist
you.
Your prayers have reached to the Church of Antioch,
and it is at peace. Coming from that place bound, I
salute all; I who am not worthy to be styled from thence,
inasmuch as I am the least of them. Nevertheless, according
to the will of God, I have been thought worthy[of this
honour], not that I have any senses[of having deserved
it], but by the grace of God, which I wish may be perfectly
given to me, that through your prayers I may attain
to God. In order, therefore, that your work may be
complete both on earth and in heaven, it is fitting
that, for the honour of God, your Church should elect
some worthy delegate;(6) so that he, journeying into
Syria, may congratulate them that they are[now] at
peace, and are restored to their proper greatness,
and that their proper constitution(8) has been re-established
among them. What appears to me proper to be done is
this, that you should send some one of your number
with an epistle, so that, in company with them, he
may rejoice over the tranquillity which, according
to the will of God, they have obtained, and because
that, through your prayers, I have secured Christ as
a safe harbour. As persons who are perfect, ye should
also aim at(10) those things which are perfect. For
when ye are desirous to do well, God is also ready
to assist you.
CHAP. XII.--SALUTATIONS.
The love of the brethren at Troas salutes you; whence also I write to The love of your brethren at Troas salutes you; whence also I write to you by Burgus, whom ye sent with
92
you by Burrhus, whom ye sent with me, together with the Ephesians, your brethren, and who has in all things refreshed me. And I would that all may imitate him, as being a pattern of a minister(1) of God. Grace will reward him in all things. I salute your most worthy(2) bishop, and your very venerable(3) presbytery, and your deacons, my fellow-servants, and all of you individually, as well as generally, in the name of Jesus Christ, and in His flesh and blood, in His passion and resurrection, both corporeal and spiritual, in union with God and you.(4) Grace, mercy, peace, and patience, be with you for evermore! me, together with the Ephesians, your brethren, and who has in all things refreshed me. And I would that all may imitate him, as being a pattern of a minister of God. The grace of the Lord will reward him in all things. I salute your most worthy bishop Polycarp, and your venerable presbytery, and your Christ-bearing deacons, my fellow-servants, and all of you individually, as well as generally, in the name of Christ Jesus, and in His flesh and blood, in His passion and resurrection, both corporeal and spiritual, in union with God and you. Grace, mercy, peace, and patience, be with you in Christ for evermore! salute the families of my bretheren, with their wives and children, and the virgins who are called widows.(5) Be ye strong, I pray, in the power of the Holy Ghost. Philo, who is with me, greets you. I salute the house of Tavias, and pray that it may be confirmed in faith and love, both corporeal and spiritual. I salute Alce, my well-beloved,(6) and the incomparable Daphnus, and Eutecnus, and all by name. Fare ye well in the grace of God.
CONCLUSION.
I salute the families of my brethren, with their wives and children, and those that are ever virgins, and the widows. Be ye strong, I pray, in the power of the Holy Ghost. Philo, my fellow-servant, who is with me, greets you. I salute the house of Tavias, and pray that it may be confirmed in faith and love, both corporeal and spiritual. I salute Alce; my well-beloved,(6) and the incomparable Daphnus, and Eutecnus, and all by name. Fare ye well in the grace of God, and of our Lord Jesus Christ, being filled with the Holy Spirit, and divine and sacred wisdom.

The Real Jesus: Who is the Real Jesus? Ever since the dawn of modern rationalism, skeptics have sought to use textual criticism, archaeology and historical reconstructions to uncover the "historical Jesus" -- a wise teacher who said many wonderful things, but fulfilled no prophecies, performed no miracles and certainly did not rise from the dead in triumph over sin. Over the past 100 years, however, startling discoveries in biblical archaeology and scholarship have all but vanquished the faulty assumptions of these doubting modernists. Regretably, these discoveries have often been ignored by the skeptics as well as by the popular media. As a result, the liberal view still holds sway in universities and impacts the culture and even much of the church.

| The Beast of Revelation: IDENTIFIED
Who is the dreaded beast of Revelation? Now at last, a plausible candidate for this personification of evil incarnate has been identified (or re-identified). Ken Gentry's insightful analysis of scripture and history is likely to revolutionize your understanding of the book of Revelation -- and even more importantly -- amplify and energize your entire Christian worldview! Historical footage and other graphics are used to illustrate the lecture Dr. Gentry presented at the 1999 Ligonier Conference in Orlando, Florida. It is followed by a one-hour question and answer session addressing the key concerns and objections typically raised in response to his position. This presentation also features an introduction that touches on not only the confusion and controversy surrounding this issue -- but just why it may well be one of the most significant issues facing the Church today. Ideal for group meetings, personal Bible study -- for anyone who wants to understand the historical context of John's famous letter "... to the seven churches which are in Asia." (Revelation 1:4) |

| Amazing Grace: The History and Theology of Calvinism
Over four hours of instruction! Just what is “Calvinism?” Does this teaching make man a deterministic robot and God the author of sin? What about free will? If the church accepts Calvinism, won’t evangelism be stifled, perhaps even extinguished? How can we balance God’s sovereignty and man’s responsibility? What are the differences between historic Calvinism and hyper-Calvinism? Why did men like Augustine, Luther, Calvin, Spurgeon, Whitefield, Edwards and a host of renowned Protestant evangelists embrace the teaching of predestination and election and deny free will theology? This is the first video documentary that answers these and other related questions. Hosted by Eric Holmberg, this fascinating three-part, four-hour presentation is detailed enough so as to not gloss over the controversy. At the same time, it is broken up into ten “Sunday-school-sized” sections to make the rich content manageable and accessible for the average viewer. |
