I want to start this discussion in order to learn more about early church history. I have been of late reading about the 12 apostles.

What is fascinating especially and one fact I did not know was how Simon Magnus rival of St. Peter and as an instrument of Satan, tried to institute a false church.

Can anyone suggest some books to read on this?

I have read many books, but the one I am reading now was worth every dollar of $25. It is a hard back, "Tumultuous Times" by Fr. Francisco Radecki, Fr. Dominic Radecki. St. Joseph's Media P.O. box 186, Wayne, Im 48184-0186 or P.O. Box 220208, Newhall, CA 91322. 580 pages of reading, pages of bibliography. This book starts at 325 AD. I know this is not from the beginning of the apostles but it is very thorough to where we are now. It goes through all the councils, defines, and is easy reading. Tan has a book for upper high school and college students, Church History, by Fr. Laux. www.traditio.com may give you refer you to other good reading.

Please pray for Bishop Richard Williamson, a noble prelate whose wisdom and zeal for the truth have inspired many.
On October 23, 2012, the good Bishop was cast out of the SSPX, where he had labored tirelessly for 36 years.
His continued membership in the SSPX would have made a premature union with Rome more difficult.
