I’m amazed by the number of letters and other documents written by early Christians. Eusebius discusses some of these in his church history.
In his Church History, Eusebius wrote, “Ethiopia even to the present day is ruled, according to ancestral custom, by a woman” (cf. Acts 8:27). Is there any truth in his statement? As it turns out, there is.
Eusebius’s Church History (or Ecclesiastical History) fills in many of the gaps in the New Testament accounts of the Apostolic Church … and more. It’s an interesting read!
Female martyrs in the early church, such as Blandina and Perpetua, “conformed themselves to Christ, even in death.”
Early church writers, such as Eusebius, acknowledged that Philip’s four daughters were well-respected famous prophets and they associated the women with apostles and bishops.
Would you like to support my ministry of encouraging mutuality and equality between men and women in the church and in marriage?
