Didache 6

Doctrine of the Apostles

Ler em portuguêsCompare PT / EN

See lest any man lead you astray from this way of righteousness, for he teacheth thee apart from God.

2For if thou art able to bear the whole yoke of the Lord, thou shalt be perfect; but if thou art not able, do that which thou art able.

3But concerning eating, bear that which thou art able; yet abstain by all means from meat sacrificed to idols; for it is the worship of dead gods.
