The Apostolic Fathers

Today in many Churches everywhere the scripture is misunderstood and misinterpreted. The cause of this is that people in the present time are studying commentary of men who have commented on the scriptures 100's of years and sometimes even 1000 years after the apostles. The most unused treasure is the writings of the Apostolic fathers, the successors of the Apostles, who commented on the scriptures and elaborated subjects less than 20 years after the Apostles died. They walked, talked, and ministered with the Apostles firsthand. So, they not only knew what Christ said and what was written but what the Apostles taught and said firsthand.
