St. Ignatius Of Antioch letter, Praise of the Ephesians
In this letter he uses the word bound as a way to describe his closeness to the church and God. He gives orders and new ways for the bishops, how shows us how to see false teachings, and how false teachers will be punished for their doing. He even shows that prayers should be endless and powerful in word. St. Ignatius proveds us a warning for false doctrines and gives us a beautiful reason for this idea. In chapter 6 Ignatius talks mainly about the bishops of the Church and how to respect the bishops just as Christ, but to also follow the teachings of the bishop rather than oppose them. The commands of God are given to bishops all around the world. We need to understand that We need to treat everyone like if they were Christ. Listen to those who have authority of the Church.

Chapter 2 vid 2
1. Jesus says it's done but religion has just began- This claim brings a more common sense response compared from the other video, becuase whe Christ said it was done he meant that our original sins have been forgiven
2. Broken man and women get to participate in his mission- the Church is universal God allows. Everyone to join and allows them to worship God compared to the other video
3. Religion is the worldwide relief- compared to the other video Christ brought the church here for a place of hope and restoration of the Kingdom.
-we are the one who decide to listen, Christ doesn't forces us to sit there and listen to what He has got to say but the gift of free will is what allows us to know the difference between right and wrong.
The video that says Jesus loves Religion, overall this video makes more sense because Christ is the Church and He wants us to spread the good news. We are to people who make the decision to listen or not to listen. The other video doesn't have enough facts to back it up, becuase religion is Christ hr is the one who told us to go in peace. We are his stewards that spread the good news.

Chapter 2 vid
1.jesus came to abolish religion- He is trying to prove that Jesus came to destroy Religion and the Church in general but the problem with that is the Church is Christ you can't destroy your ownself with out kill yourself.
2. Call people blind doesn't automatically give you vision-that's true but some people aren't blinded by the Church, because the Church provides vision to see Christ, but it's our decision to believe it or not.
3. If reiligion is so great why has it created so many wars?- religion did not create warfare, but the evil that entered the world at the Fall of Adam and Eve.
