Everyone loves to write hymns on the grains of wheat scattered on the hill in the Didache but no one ever writes hymns about "The Way of Death is [...] turning away the needy, oppressing the distressed, advocates of the rich, unjust judges of the poor, altogether sinful; may you be delivered, my children, from all of these."
τὰ συμβαίνοντά σοι ἐνεργήματα ὡς ἀγαθὰ προσδέξῃ, εἰδὼς ὅτι ἄτερ θεοῦ οὐδὲν γίνεται.
Whatsoever happens, accept it as good, for nothing comes but which is sent by God.
Didache 3:10
You there, Theophiloi! What day is to-day? Wait, what? OCTOBER?! Well, I guess we did miss it, then, and the spirits took their sweet time t
New episode, old format, lots of Sword Talk
You shall not turn away the needy, but shall share everything with your brother, and shall not say that it is your own, for if you are sharers in the imperishable, how much more in the things which perish?
οὐκ ἀποστραφήσῃ τὸν ἐνδεόμενον, συγκοινωνήσεις δὲ πάντα τῷ ἀδελφῷ σοῦ καὶ οὐκ ἐρεῖς ἴδια εἶναι· εἰ γὰρ ἐν τῷ ἀθανάτῳ κοινωνοί ἐστε, πόσῳ μᾶλλον ἐν τοῖς θνητοῖς;
— Didache or The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles (Διδαχὴ Κυρίου διὰ τῶν δώδεκα ἀποστόλων τοῖς ἔθνεσιν) (ca 120-170 CE). The Didache is of equal antiquity with the earliest texts later assembled into the New Testament, of which early church fathers considered it a part. It provides an excellent glimpse into the thinking of the leaders of the early church, and it directly contradicts the "prosperity gospel" of modern American white Evangelicals on virtually every issue.

The Church Door, by John Bagnold Burgess, oil painting, 1889.
Do not be one who reaches out to receive, but draws them back from giving. If you acquire something with your hands, give it as a ransom for your sins. Do not doubt whether to give, nor grumble while giving. For you should recognize the good paymaster of the reward. Do not shun a person in need, but share all things with your brother, and do not say that anything is your own. For if you are partners in what is immortal, how much more in what is mortal?
- The Didache, or The Teaching of the Twelve Apostles (4:5-8)
But the way of death is this: First of all, it is evil and completely cursed; murders, adulteries, lusts, sexual immoralities, thefts, idolatries, magic arts, sorceries, robberies, false testimonies, hypocrisies, duplicity, deceit, pride, malice, stubbornness, greed, abusive language, jealousy, audacity, arrogance, boastfulness. It is the way of persecutors of good people, of those who hate truth, love a lie… have no mercy for the poor, do not work on behalf of the oppressed, do not know the one who made them, are murderers of children, corrupters of God’s creation, who turn away from someone in need, who oppress the afflicted, are advocates of the wealthy, lawless judges of the poor, utterly sinful. May you be delivered, children, from all these things!
From the Didache
Let every Apostle who comes to you be received as the Lord, But let him not stay more than one day, or if need be a second as well; but if he stay three days, he is a false prophet. And when an Apostle goes forth let him accept nothing but bread till he reach his night's lodging; but if he ask for money, he is a false prophet.
Didache 11:4-6
