Ignatius to the Romans 3

¹Ye never grudged any one; ye were the instructors of others And my desire is that those lessons shall hold good which as teachers ye enjoin. ²Only pray that I may have power within and without, so that I may not only say it but also desire it; that I may not only be called a Christian, but also be found one. For if I shall be found so, then can I also be called one, and be faithful then, when I am no more visible to the world. ³Nothing visible is good. For our God Jesus Christ, being in the Father, is the more plainly visible. The Work is not of persuasiveness, but Christianity is a thing of might, whensoever it is hated by the world.
