The apostolic churches, as guarantors of orthodox doctrine, had generally higher authority than all other churches, because it was believed that the apostolic faith was certainly preserved in them. In the fight against gnosis in the second half of the 2nd century, Christian authors argued with the apostolicity of the church and they used to use the Roman Church as the perfect and the most appropriate example precisely because of its exceptional apostolic origin. The first author and witness of this state is Hegesippus, whose argument – the preservation of true apostolic faith due to succession of bishops in every church where he used Rome as the best example – was deepened by Ireneus of Lyon. Rome has in his AdversusHaereses the “fullness” of apostolicity, is the most apostolic church of all churches thanks to its connection to both Peter and Paul and their martyrdoms. Therefore, every other church in which the apostolic faith and tradition is preserved must ipso facto agree with Rome. Moving forward Rome is the best example for demonstrating apostolicity of the whole church. The question for the lastanalysed author from this period – Tertullian –was how to discern from the heretic and apostolic reading of the Scripture since Gnostics used the same texts with completely different explanation. The answer was (to put the simplest) the apostolic faith itself. It is again passed through generations thanks to succession of bishops and the best places where to verify it are apostolic churches. Rome is not as obviously named as the best example; the fortresses of the true faith the apostolic churches were equal, still the Rome in his enumeration covers more place. It is the testimony of the very high reverence for Roman church, which was quite common during the whole Christian antiquity.

St Paul’s text of 1 Cor 15 3b-8 in a concise and schematic way gives the basic data con¬cerning Jesus’ death, funeral, resurrection and manifestations. It is a true synthesis of the Christian doctrine on the death and resurrection of Christ the Redeemer. The author of the article first discusses the literary aspect of St Paul’s words; he analyzes the context, tradition, edition and the structure of the text, and then he carefully interprets it from the exegetic and theological point of view.
