The connection of the Dominical day (Sunday) with the celebration of the Eucharist can be demonstrated from the very beginnings of Christianity. This study contains a short exposition and commentary on five texts: 'breaking of bread' in Troas according to Acts 20.7, texts on the Eucharist in the Didache, the report of Pliny the Younger about Christians in Bythinia in his letter to Trajan, the description of the Sunday synaxis in Justin's Apology (67.3-5), the report about martyrs from the town of Abitene in AD 304.

We know more about than about any other follower of Jesus in the 1st century. Nevertheless, the apostle remains somewhat of a mystery. The present article identifies the main points of his life and missionary work and pre¬sents a relation between his gospel message and the good news of the Kingdom of God proclaimed by Jesus. The article then attempts to answer the question, how much justified is the thesis about a reform Paul instituted in the sphere of theology and life of Christian communities in the 1st century.

Based on the work analysis by Victor of Vita Historia persecutionis Africanae provinciae sub Geiserico et Hunirico regibus Vandalorum, the contribution is dedicated to the portrayal and representation of the bishop in Africa on the territory of Vandal kingdom. It is a specific topic which is up to certain extent closely related to the persecution or rather to the oppression of the Catholic Church from the side of ruling Vandals who often tried to violently convert the majority of Roman population belonging to the Catholic Church to the Arian faith. Through the portrayal and representation of the bishop, the contribution follows more levels such as addressing the bishops, bishop’s level of knowledge, their preparedness to undergo suffering and even death because of their faith, charity activities, humility and modesty, the preparedness to serve to needy, oppressed and poor people. In the second part, the contribution dedicates to the comparison of the position and bishop’s activity in Africa and in the rest of the Roman Empire. Under Vandal rules, bishops in Africa had, of course, the limited possibilities to carry out their function and to secure its important components. Their preparedness to tackle serious theological issues which separated Vandal Arians and the Catholic Church underwent a great proof.
