Her mother died when she was 14, and she entered the Carmelite Monastery in Avila in 1535. Her life as a Carmelite, though far removed from the mainstream of modern culture, still speaks powerfully to us today. Teresa longed for a deeper relationship with God, but due to the laxity of convent life in those days, she struggled to reconcile her desire to live for God with other relationships that kept her from devoting herself completely to Him. Repeatedly, Teresa asked God to help her, seemingly to no avail. It was not until 1554 that she experienced the conversion that would mark the rest of her life. Coming upon a statue of the wounded Christ, Teresa was suddenly and intensely moved by what Christ had suffered for her and was overwhelmed by her own lack of gratitude for His sufferings. In tears, she begged the Lord to strengthen her desire to belong to Him, and resolved not to move from there until her prayer was granted. At that moment, Teresa felt a growing strength within her. Teresa’s conversion, which actually occurred over a period of four years, set her on a new pathway that led her to an intimate experience of God, a God she came to perceive as a beloved Friend. In prayer, God poured out His love on His daughter, who had become a willing and open vessel as she surrendered totally to her Lord and King. Teresa’s indomitable love for God made her determined to give her all, willing to overcome any obstacle to do what God asked of her. Convinced that God wanted it, she set about reforming the Carmelite order, establishing convents throughout Spain where religious would live according to the original spirit of Carmel. The special gifts she received from God in prayer were often misunderstood by others—her writings even came under the scrutiny of the Inquisition—and Teresa suffered much. At times she would try to suppress the ecstasies that accompanied God’s intimate presence, even questioning herself if they had come from God. Yet God continued to lead her into the innermost dwellings of her heart, where she beheld the awesome beauty of her King. Fortunately for us, Teresa’s superiors ordered her to document the remarkable events of her life and her original works still exist today. The Book of Her Life, The Way of Perfection, The Interior Castle, and The Foundations are her main works, detailing her remarkable pathway to God. It is through these profoundly human yet mystical writings that we experience Teresa’s spirit that inspires us to enter into an ever deeper relationship with God. Teresa died in 1582 at the age of 67. In 1622 she was canonized, and in 1970 Pope Paul VI declared her a Doctor of the Church, the first woman ever to be so recognized. Prayer of St. Teresa Let nothing disturb you; Let nothing frighten you. All things are passing. God never changes. Patience obtains all things. Nothing is wanting to him Who possesses God. God alone suffices. St. Ignatius of Antioch By: New Advent Also called Theophorus (ho Theophoros); born in Syria, around the year 50; died at Rome between 98 and 117. More than one of the earliest ecclesiastical writers have given credence, though apparently without good reason, to the legend that Ignatius was the child whom the Savior took up in His arms, as described in Mark 9:35. It is also believed, and with great probability, that, with his friend Polycarp, he was among the auditors of the Apostle St. John. If we include St. Peter, Ignatius was the third Bishop of Antioch and the immediate successor of Evodius (Eusebius, Church History II.3.22). Theodoret ("Dial. Immutab.", I, iv, 33a, Paris, 1642) is the authority for the statement that St. Peter appointed Ignatius to the See of Antioch. St. John Chrysostom lays special emphasis on the honor conferred upon the martyr in receiving his episcopal consecration at the hands of the Apostles themselves ("Hom. in St. Ig.", IV. 587). Natalis Alexander quotes Theodoret to the same effect (III, xii, art. xvi, p. 53). All the sterling qualities of ideal pastor and a true soldier of Christ were possessed by the Bishop of Antioch in a preeminent degree. Accordingly, when the storm of the persecution of Domitian broke in its full fury upon the Christians of Syria, it found their faithful leader prepared and watchful. He was unremitting in his vigilance and tireless in his efforts to inspire hope and to strengthen the weaklings of his flock against the terrors of the persecution. The restoration of peace, though it was short-lived, greatly comforted him. But it was not for himself that he rejoiced, as the one great and ever-present wish of his chivalrous soul was that he might receive the fullness of Christian discipleship through the medium of martyrdom. His desire was not to remain long unsatisfied. Associated with the writings of St. Ignatius is a work called "Martyrium Ignatii", which purports to be an account by eyewitnesses of the martyrdom of St. Ignatius and the acts leading up to it. In this work, which such competent Protestant critics as Pearson and Ussher regard as genuine, the full history of that eventful journey from Syria to Rome is faithfully recorded for the edification of the Church of Antioch.

  • The Letters of Saint Ignatius of Antioch
    Catechetical Series: What Catholics Believe & Why THE LETTERS OF SAINT IGNATIUS OF ANTIOCH Behold The Truth Discovering the What & Why of the Catholic Faith beholdthetruth.com Bishop and Martyr Saint Ignatius was the third Bishop of the Church of Antioch, after Saint Evodius, the direct successor there of the Apostle Peter. Ignatius was also a disciple of the Apostle John; and friend to Saint Polycarp of Smyrna, another of John’s disciples. In about 107 A.D., he was arrested by the Roman soldiers and brought to Rome to be thrown to the wild beasts in the Coliseum. On the journey from Antioch to Rome, he wrote seven letters to Churches in cities he passed along the way; and these letters have been handed down to us. On the Blessed Trinity & Divinity of Christ Ignatius’ letters provide invaluable insight into the beliefs and practices of the first generation of Christians to follow the Apostles. We find evidence, for instance, of the Christian belief in the Blessed Trinity. “You are like stones for a temple of the Father,” he writes, “prepared for the edifice of God the Father, hoisted to the heights by the crane of Jesus Christ, which is the cross, using for a rope the Holy Spirit.” Letter to the Ephesians 9:1 There is evidence as well for the belief in the divinity of Christ. In the opening of his Letter to the Romans, he writes, “I wish [you] an unalloyed joy in Jesus Christ, our God.” The Importance of the Church & Sacraments Ignatius reveals a belief in the necessity of the Church and sacraments for salvation.

Castillo August, 2017 ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the role of the Catholic Church in defining racial categories and construction of the social order during and after the Spanish conquest of Mexico, then New Spain. The Catholic Church, at both the institutional and local levels, was vital to Spanish colonization and exercised power equal to the colonial state within the Americas. Therefore, its interests, specifically in connection to internal and external “threats,” effected New Spain society considerably. The growth of Protestantism, the Crown’s attempts to suppress Church influence in the colonies, and the power struggle between the secular and regular orders put the Spanish Catholic Church on the defensive. Its traditional roles and influence in Spanish society not only needed protecting, but reinforcing. As per tradition, the Church acted as cultural center once established in New Spain. However, the complex demographic challenged traditional parameters of social inclusion and exclusion which caused clergymen to revisit and refine conceptions of race and gender.

  • OPUS IMPERFECTUM AUGUSTINE and HIS READERS, 426-435 A.D. by MARK VESSEY on the Fifth Day Before the Kalends of September [In
    OPUS IMPERFECTUM AUGUSTINE AND HIS READERS, 426-435 A.D. BY MARK VESSEY On the fifth day before the Kalends of September [in the thirteenth consulship of the emperor 'Theodosius II and the third of Valcntinian III], departed this life the bishop Aurelius Augustinus, most excellent in all things, who at the very end of his days, amid the assaults of besieging Vandals, was replying to I the books of Julian and persevcring glorioi.islyin the defence of Christian grace.' The heroic vision of Augustine's last days was destined to a long life. Projected soon after his death in the C,hronicleof Prosper of Aquitaine, reproduccd in the legendary biographies of the Middle Ages, it has shaped the ultimate or penultimate chapter of more than one modern narrative of the saint's career.' And no wonder. There is something very compelling about the picture of the aged bishop recumbent against the double onslaught of the heretical monster Julian and an advancing Vandal army, the ex- tremity of his plight and writerly perseverance enciphering once more the unfathomable mystery of grace and the disproportion of human and divine enterprises. In the chronicles of the earthly city, the record of an opus mag- num .sed imperfectum;in the numberless annals of eternity, thc perfection of God's work in and through his servant Augustine.... As it turned out, few observers at the time were able to abide by this providential explicit and Prosper, despite his zeal for combining chronicle ' Prosper, Epitomachronicon, a. 430 (ed. Mommsen, MGH, AA 9, 473). Joseph McCabe, .SaintAugustine and His Age(London 1902) 427: "Whilst the Vandals thundered at the walls Augustine was absorbed in his great refutation of the Pelagian bishop of Lclanum, Julian." Other popular biographers prefer the penitential vision of Possidius, hita Augustini31,1-2.

  • The Church in Antioch (Adventures in Acts, Session 11) Thursday, November 29, 2007
    The Church in Antioch (Adventures in Acts, session 11) Thursday, November 29, 2007 Before considering the church as it is founded in Antioch (in what is now Turkey), transmitted to us in Acts 11:19 (and following), let us quickly resituate the development of the early church according to what precedes in the Acts of the Apostles: • Stephen, the deacon, is martyred in approximately 35 AD (Acts 7:54-60). • Persecution follows, and the church in Jerusalem is scattered, except the Apostles (Acts 8:11). Why were the Apostles not scattered? It is perhaps because they were of Jewish origin, and, as “Jewish Christians”, they were less of a threat to the Temple and to the Law. Their concentration in Jerusalem, of course, proves to be an obvious source of strength to the Church nascent. • Philip, the next deacon on the list after Stephen (Acts 6:5), begins his preaching (Acts 8:4-8). • Simon the magician, a prominent figure in Samaria, is converted through Peter (Acts 8:9-25). • The Ethiopian eunuch is converted through Philip (Acts 8:26-40). • Saul, the hard and ferocious persecutor, is converted through no intermediary, on his way to Damascus (Acts 9:1-19). He needed direct lightning! • At once Saul begins his preaching right there in Damascus (Acts 9:20-22), then continues in Jerusalem, where he encounters the Apostles (Acts 9:23-30). Interestingly, he returns to the place of his persecution of the Church to bring healing and reparation. Indeed, when possible, the Holy Spirit often leads us to do the same: to bring healing and reparation there where we once brought pain and division.

Rowe, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Supervisor Dr. J. Geoffrey Kron, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Departmental Member The purpose of this thesis is to determine whether the Roman administrative towns of Britain continued in their original Romanized form as seen in the second century AD, or were altered in their appearance and function in the fourth and fifth century, with a visible reduction in their urbanization and Romanization. It will be argued that British town life did change significantly. Major components of urbanization were disrupted with the public buildings disused or altered for other purposes, and the reduction or cessation of public services. A reduction in the population of the towns can be perceived in the eventual disuse of the extramural cemeteries and abandonment of substantial areas of settlement or possibly entire towns.

  • The Connection Between Salvation, Martyrdom and Suffering According to St
    R. I. Ivan: The Connection Between Salvation, Martyrdom and Suffering According to St. Ignatius of Antioch The Connection Between Salvation, Martyrdom and Suffering According to St. Ignatius of Antioch Ruben Ioan Ivan Reformed Theology College Babeş Bolyai University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania [email protected] UDK:276;234.3;272 Review paper Received: June, 2013 Accepted: September, 2013. Summary Ignatius of Antioch passed on many of his ideas about salvation, martyr- dom and suffering through the epistles which he wrote shortly before being martyred. The author did not articulate the relationship between salvation and martyrdom very clearly, probably because he had little time to do so. Thus, should some of the expressions he uses, such as “to attain unto God” and “now I am perfected”, be correlated with martyrdom, it would seem that martyrdom is the only way for a Christian to attain unto God and to be per- fected. This paper proves that Ignatius did not see martyrdom as a means to achieve salvation, but as the right way for a Christian to leave this earthly life in order to be with God for eternity through the salvation given by Christ. Key words: Ignatius, martyrdom, salvation, suffering, attainment, deeds, Christ, perfection, resurrection, reward. Introduction My aim in what follows is to analyze and comment on, from the perspective of con- temporary thinking, Ignatius’ concept regarding the connection between salvation, suffering and martyrdom. This is because Ignatius uses a series of interesting expressions to refer to martyrdom – which he considers, along with suffering, to be a great blessing. Moreover, according to him, through suffering and martyrdom, the Christian 167 KAIROS - Evangelical Journal of Theology / Vol.

Although Augustine is one of the Fathers most enthusiastically and thoroughly researched, his letters are less studied than his other works. As a significant number of Augustine’s letters were written as part of his effort to unite the Donatists with the Church, they are especially relevant sources for his views on the unity and authority of the Church. While no single work of Augustine covers the entire period of his dealing with the Donatists, the letters witness to Augustine’s activity against the Donatists from the time he became a priest up to 418.
