"It helped the pagan mired in a morass of gods to find a path to meaningful faith by offering him one irrevocable choice to salvation, and it showed how the community of a Christian congregation could be an effective embrace against the bitter chill of urban loneliness felt by the peasant who had come to the city seeking work, by the lonely soldier released from the army, the freed slave, the ruined landowner, the pensioner whose fixed income was being devoured by inflation, Christian philanthropy toward strangers, its impulse toward mutual concern, its care of the dead, its acceptance of every person no matter from what tribe, city, or countryside -- these were the attractions of the early church to the masses of mankind." --Chaim Potok (Wanderings p. 289) | ||||||
