The Catholic Church asserts that the earliest Christians were Catholics, with their beliefs and practices continuing unbroken to the present day. However, for centuries, Protestants have challenged this claim, arguing that the original Church resembled their own congregations more closely. This raises the question of how to validate the Catholic Church's assertions. Joe Heschmeyer, in his exploration of early Christianity, connects the Catholic past with the present, focusing on the first two centuries before any alleged Roman "apostasy." He examines foundational principles of Christian belief, authority, and worship, analyzing the actions and words of those who followed the apostles to counter anti-Catholic narratives about early Faith practices. Heschmeyer argues that early Christianity is not a distant, obscure past awaiting rediscovery by Protestant Reformers; rather, it is a recognizable and familiar tradition that leads directly to today's Catholic Church. This work serves as a resource for those looking to defend the Church's roots or simply to understand the beliefs of early Christians, promising rich insights into the continuity of faith across the centuries.
