The Didache (around A.D. 100-120) is also known as The Teaching Of The Twelve Apostles. Didache is a Greek word that means "teaching." In 1873 a complete manuscript of the Didache was found. Before this it was only known from fragments. It is not known who wrote the Didache.
The Didache is an early Christian handbook that deals with Christian living and Christian worship. It refers to the two ways, the way of life and the way of death(1.1). It even says do not murder a child by abortion (2.2). It also seems to say that baptism should be by immersion if possible (7.1). The Didache seems to be familiar with many New Testament books, especially the Gospel of Matthew.
