The words of St. Ignatius(30-110) on the relationship between the Church and modern antichrist Judaism. St. Ignatius was a disciple of St. John the Apostle was the third Bishop of Antioch after Peter and Euodius. His words are important because they give us a glimpse into the mind of the early Jewish Apostles and their disciples on the Church's relationship to the modern antichristian Judaism that rejected Christ. The Epistle of Ignatius to the Magnesians ------------ Chapter X.-Beware of Judaizing. Let us not, therefore, be insensible to His kindness. For were He to reward us according to our works, we should cease to be. For "if Thou, Lord, shalt mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand? "67 Let us therefore prove ourselves worthy of that name which we have received. For whosoever is called by any other name besides this, he is not of God; for he has not received the prophecy which speaks thus concerning us: "The people shall be called by a new name, which the Lord shall name them, and shall be a holy people."68 This was first fulfilled in Syria; for "the disciples were called Christians at Antioch,"69 when Paul and Peter were laying the foundations of the Church. Lay aside, therefore, the evil, the old, the corrupt leaven,70 and be ye changed into the new leaven of grace. Abide in Christ, that the stranger71 may not have dominion over you. It is absurd to speak of Jesus Christ with the tongue, and to cherish in the mind a Judaism which has now come to an end. For where there is Christianity there cannot be Judaism. For Christ is one, in whom every nation that believes, and every tongue that confesses, is gathered unto God. And those that were of a stony heart have become the children of Abraham, the friend of God;72 and in his seed all those have been blessed73 who were ordained to eternal life74 in Christ.
