He was born in the city of Carthage in North Africa. Both of his parents were pagan, and his father was a centurion. Tertullian received complete education in the knowledge of the Romans and the Greeks, and he apparently practiced law in Rome before his return to Carthage and conversion. His writings indicate that he did not become a Christian until he was in his thirties or forties. Once Tertullian converted to Christianity, he held nothing back. He used his vast learning in the cause of Christ. At the risk of his life, he wrote several works to the Romans, defending Christianity and attempting to persuade the authorities to halt their senseless persecution. Tertullian apparently served as an elder or presbyter in Carthage, completely devoting his life to the ministry of Christ. Not only did he write apologetic works to the Romans, but he also composed a considerable number of writings in which he defended orthodox Christianity against various heretics. Tertullian also wrote exhortations for the Church itself. Although Tertullian was fluent in Greek, he penned most of his works in Latin in order to benefit the growing number of western Christians who knew only Latin. This effort has often earned him the title of "The Father of Latin Christianity." In this effort Tertullian developed Latin terminology to express ideas of Christian theology that had previously been unique to the Greek language. He is well known for being the first to use the words "substance" and "person" to define God. With fraternal affection, Fr. Homero C.

  • Fathers of the Church, Part 2: the Latin (Or Western) Fathers
    Fathers of the Church, Part 2: The Latin (or Western) Fathers A previous In Focus explored some of the great Fathers of the Eastern, or Greek, Church. This week the Latin (Western) Fathers are highlighted. While there is no official list of the Fathers, since the fifth century the criteria for selection has been that the individuals lived holy lives, were orthodox in their teachings and writings, lived during antiquity (the first through seventh centuries) and have been approved by the Church. According to some historians, there are more than 100 total Church Fathers (East and West); many of the same names are found on the different lists. The Fathers helped define, establish and promote the dogmas of the Catholic faith. They not only explained and advanced Christianity, but they stood against those who would defame, deny or exploit our Lord, Jesus Christ. This author is not able to adequately measure or describe the sanctity of these men, who were popes, bishops, theologians, apologists and writers. Some are saints, and all gave themselves in the service of the Lord. Here are a handful among the giants from the Western Church who have the title Church Father. They are categorized by those who lived just before the Council of Nicea, those in the era of Nicea and those after the council, up through the seventh century. Part one about the Greek (Eastern) Church Fathers was published Jan. 21 and can be found at: bit.ly/fatherspart1. Ante-Nicea Fathers Tertullian (c. 155-220) Tertullian Public domain The Fathers of the Western Church begin with Tertullian in the second century.

  • Holy Fathers 7Th Council
    October 14, 2012 Sunday Sermon Fr Ambrose Young Entrance of the Theotokos into the Temple Skete The Holy Fathers of the 7th Council Titus 3:8-15 Luke 8:5-15 In the Name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen. On this Sunday the Church celebrates the Holy Fathers of the Seventh Ecumenical Council and asks us to reflect upon that Council and also the whole concept we Orthodox have of what we constantly refer to as “the Holy Fathers”. This Council of the Church—the last general universal Council of Holy Orthodoxy--was held in the year 787 and dealt with the whole controversy surrounding the use of sacred images or icons. This is an important Council for us to know about because in the West, at the time of the Protestant Reformation, images in churches were severely criticized and in many cases destroyed and forbidden. To this day most Protestant churches are very bereft and bare of sacred imagery other than the Cross, and some do not even have a Cross. Mormons even see the Cross as an emblem of shame and do not make use of it in their churches and temples, nor do they wear a cross. Even some very modern Catholic Churches—perhaps in order not to offend Protestants?—have gone in the direction of stripping themselves of sacred art of all kinds. But in Orthodoxy we continue to preserve and cherish our rich tradition of iconography and other forms of sacred art, seeing these as both theologically and spiritually necessary and also an essential component of ancient Christian civilization.

  • Church Fathers on Education
    "Hear this, ye fathers and mothers, that your upbringing of children shall not lose its reward [...] It was on account of his children that Eli perished (see I Samuel). For he ought to have admonished them, and indeed, he did admonish them, but not as he ought; but from unwillingness to give them pain, he destroyed both himself and them. Hear this, ye fathers, bring your children up with great, great care in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. Youth is wild, and requires many governors, teachers, directors, attendants and tutors; and after all these, it is a happiness if it be restrained. For as a horse not broken in, or a wild beast untamed, such is youth. But if from the beginning, from the earliest age, we fix in it good rules, much pains will not be required afterwards; for good habits formed will be for them as a law. Let us not suffer them to do anything which is agreeable but injurious [...] Let us admonish them. Let us employ sometimes advice, sometimes warnings, sometimes threatening. Let us bestow great care upon them, and do everything, that the Evil One may not rob us of them." (St. John Chrysostom) "Fathers and mothers, Go and lead your children by the hand into the Church." (St. John Chrysostom) "Rear your children in the Lord [...] Teach them from infancy the Word of God. Discipline them when needed, and render them respectful to legitimate authority. Never let them exercise authority over you." (The Apostolic Constitutions) "With us everything should be secondary compared to our concern with children, and their upbringing in the instruction and teaching of the Lord." (St.

Now Just Where Were We? It has been a long time since we were considering the Church Fathers in Unit 2. This is a “pick up session,” now that we have completed the 14 other sessions of this series on The History of the Early Christian Church. Some may remember that we were giving our attention to the early Church Fathers when the interruption of the Covid19 virus descended upon us, and we found ourselves under stay at home policies. Thanks to our pastor’s leadership ond our well equipped communications equipment and the skill of Pilip Muschke, we were able to be “on line` almost St. Jerome - Translator of Latin Vulgate instanetly. We missed only one session between our live class 4-5th Century and our first on line class. Today, we pick up the session we missed. We had covered two sessions of the three session Unit 2. The first of these sessions was on The Apostolic Fathers. These were those who had either known our Lord or known those who did. Among those would have been the former disciples of Jesus or the early first generation apostles. These were the primary sources to whom the ministry of our Lord was “handed off.” Saint Paul was among them.

  • 09-30 Saint Jerome
    Saint Jerome was born in 340, in present day Croatia. His father sent him to Rome to learn classic literature and rhetoric, that is writing based on formal rules of composition. Although his father instructed him in the Christian faith as a youth, Jerome was not baptized until the age of 20. He did this in Rome in 360, being baptized by Pope Liberius.i Jerome was a lifelong learner. As an adult, he studied theology under two excellent teachers and two future saints, Chromatius and Heliodorus. “Jerome undertook to learn Hebrew from a Christian monk who had converted from Judaism. Somewhat unusually for a fourth- century Christian priest, he also studied with Jewish rabbis, striving to maintain the connection between Hebrew language and culture, and the emerging world of Greek and Latin-speaking Christianity.”ii Jerome enjoyed travel to both places of solitude and to intellectual centers bubbling with scholarship. His trips throughout the Holy Land helped him to understand the significance of places made famous by the bible. In Constantinople he met Gregory of Nazianzus. They had much in common and easily made friends with one another. Gregory is one of the four great Greek Doctors of the Churchiii. Jerome became one of the four great Latin Doctors of the Church. Beyond school and travel, he also felt much was to be learned from prayer and study. Having a deep appreciation for monasticism he felt called to a solitary life of a hermit in the desert. Jerome spent the better part of four decades in Bethlehem in the monastery he established so that he could devote his days to study, prayer, and an austere self-discipline.

  • A Look at Church History
    What is Church? Who is Church? The church is a sign of the mystery of God’s love. In the church, we share a journey of faith. God has made known to us the mystery of his will… to gather up all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth. Ephesians 1:9a, 10b The church is our home, where we are the family of God. How does the church offer you a home- like place? When we care for a lamb, we are tender and careful. How do you experience God caring for you in the same way? A look at Church History • From Jesus to Benedict XVI What is CHURCH? • The mystical Body of Christ—St. Paul • The Vine and the Branches—Jesus as told by John • God’s Family—Ephesians • God’s building—Psalms, Matthew and Corinthians • Jesus’ Little Flock—The good shepherd parable • The people of God—Vatican II What is CHURCH? • Our church is one just like our God is one. • It is holy, as Divine Love is holy. • It is catholic, meaning universal • It is built on the foundation of the twelve apostles. Pentecost: Birth of the Church • On the fiftieth day after Jesus’ death, Jesus kept his promise and sent the advocate, The Holy Spirit. Three thousand were added to the fold that day. Early Church: 30-80 AD A Jewish sect • Communal life • A refuge for widows and children • Missionary in nature • The services were in the homes Rapid spread • Strong infrastructure • World was at peace • Spiritual unrest Conversion of Paul 40’s AD • Among the Jewish leadership • Watchdog of the faith • A tent maker • On the road to Damascus The Council of Jerusalem (49AD) • Development of the Creed – Apostles creed • What do we do with Gentiles? – Jewish laws • Circumcision • Dietary • Sexual ethics.

  • The Gift of Tongues in the Post Apostolic Church (A.D
    The Gift of Tongues in the Post Apostolic Church (A.D. 100-400) Cleon L. Rogers Originally published in April, 1965. Used by permission of Bibliotheca Sacra, Dallas Theological Seminary It is very clear in Paul’s teaching that tongues are to cease (I Cor. 13:8), but, of course, the big problem is when this is to occur. This study is not intended to discuss the possible answers to this question (1), but rather it is to examine the evidence of the church fathers from A.D. 100 to 400 to determine in tongues were still practiced as they were in the times of the apostles. If the gift is as important as many teach, then the leaders of the Post Apostolic Age should have stressed this and commended its practice highly. The evidence, however, does not indicate that tongues had a significant place in the church from A.D. 100 to 400. THE TESTIMONY OF THE APOSTOLIC FATHERS While there is clear evidence from Scripture that the gift of tongues was in operation during the time of the apostles (2), it is significant that the gift is nowhere alluded to, hinted at, or found in the Apostolic Fathers. It might be objected that this is simply an argument from silence and has as much support for the continuance of the gift as for the cessation of the gift. However, the importance of this silence takes on added weight when viewed in the light of certain facts. First, some of the Apostolic Fathers wrote from and to churches where the gift had been practiced during the time of the apostles.
