THE TWO BABYLONS –
ALEXANDER HISLOP

The Two Babylons is one of the great books in the Christian literature of apologetics.

POLYCARP’S EPISTLE TO THE PHILIPIANS
Polycarp was born c. 70 A.D in Asia Minor – the growing centre of Christianity, particularly after the destruction of Jerusalem. Though little is known about his early years, it is likely Polycarp was born into a Christian home as he considered himself to have lived in service to the Lord from a very early age – if not his whole life. It is almost certain that Polycarp, as a young man, knew the Apostle John and others who had seen and heard Jesus Christ. According to Irenaeus, Polycarp would often repeat their words from memory, relating teachings John had passed on to him and many accounts of miracles performed by Jesus.
