The Didache, Chapter 11 — краткое содержание

Что происходит

1. The community welcomes teachers who increase righteousness and knowledge of the Lord but rejects destructive teaching.
2. Apostles receive hospitality for one day, or two when needed, and take only bread when departing.
3. A three-day stay or a request for money marks an apostle as a false prophet.
4. The community must not judge prophetic speech in the Spirit, but a prophet’s conduct distinguishes truth from falsehood.
5. Prophets expose themselves as false by eating meals they order in the Spirit or failing to practice their teaching.
6. God alone judges certain proven prophets, while requests for personal gain are rejected and requests for needy people remain protected.

На что обратить внимание

Conduct supplies the test of prophetic authenticity. The surrounding rules make that test concrete through money, meals, hospitality, and consistency between teaching and action.
