The Church Fathers

The Church Fathers are an important link to early Christianity as evidenced by this video. One of the Church Fathers, St. Augustine, writes:

The same is the holy Church, the one Church, the true Church, the Catholic Church, fighting against all heresies: fight, it can; be fought down, it cannot. As for heresies, they all went out of it, like unprofitable branches pruned from the vine: but itself abides in its root, in its Vine, in its charity.
