Letter to Diognetus: Chapter 5
For Christians are not distinguished from the rest of humanity by country, language, or customs.
For they do not live in cities of their own, nor do they speak a peculiar dialect, nor do they follow an unusual way of life.

They live in their own countries, but only as foreigners;
they participate in everything as citizens, and endure everything as strangers.
Every foreign land is their homeland, and every homeland is a foreign land.

They marry like everyone else, and they have children,
but they do not expose their infants.
They share their table, but not their bed.

They are in the flesh, but they do not live according to the flesh.
They pass their days on earth, but they are citizens of heaven.
They obey the established laws, and in their own lives they surpass the laws.
They love all people, and are persecuted by all.

They are unknown, and yet they are condemned.
They are put to death, and yet they are brought to life.
They are poor, yet they make many rich.
They lack everything, yet they abound in everything.

They are dishonored, and yet in their dishonor they are glorified.
They are slandered, and yet they are vindicated.
They are reviled, and they bless;
they are insulted, and they repay the insult with honor.

They do good, yet are punished as evildoers.
When punished, they rejoice as though being given life.
In short, what the soul is to the body, Christians are to the world.

The Letter to Diognetus: Chapter 10
When you have come to know this, you will be filled with joy beyond words, and you will love Him who first loved you. And loving Him, you will become an imitator of His goodness. Do not wonder that a human being can imitate God: he can, if God wills it. For happiness does not consist in lordship over others or in having more than the weak, but in bearing one another’s burdens and sharing with those in need.
