  • Saint Eusebius of Vercelli
    Saint Eusebius of Vercelli SAINT OF THE DAY 02-08-2021 While Constantius II used every means to impose Aryan heresy throughout the Roman Empire, Saint Eusebius of Vercelli (end of the 3rd century - 371) was one of the few bishops to defend strenuously, at the cost of persecution, the righteous faith in the Son of God “begotten, not created, of the same substance as the Father”, as had been solemnly confirmed by the Nicene Creed. Originally from Sardinia, when he was a child he moved with his family to Rome, where he was ordained priest. Eusebius earned the admiration of the Christian community of Rome, which for about three years became the refuge of the exiled Athanasius of Alexandria. In 345 Saint Julius I consecrated him bishop of Vercelli, the first such position of which we have verification. Thanks to his work of evangelization he became the patron saint of the whole region of Piedmont, at the time still largely pagan, especially in the countryside. One of the most relevant facts of his episcopate was the foundation of a priestly community that led a common life, following the example of the monks gathered in the cenobia. For this community, which became a powerhouse of saints, he earned a post-mortem eulogy from Saint Ambrose. The bishop of Milan, in a letter to the faithful of Vercelli (written around 394), expressed all his esteem for Eusebius who had governed his diocese “with the austerity of fasting” and educated the clergy to “observe the monastic rules, even though he lived in the middle of the city”.

  • ABSTRACT the Apostolic Tradition in the Ecclesiastical Histories Of
    ABSTRACT The Apostolic Tradition in the Ecclesiastical Histories of Socrates, Sozomen, and Theodoret Scott A. Rushing, Ph.D. Mentor: Daniel H. Williams, Ph.D. This dissertation analyzes the transposition of the apostolic tradition in the fifth-century ecclesiastical histories of Socrates, Sozomen, and Theodoret. In the early patristic era, the apostolic tradition was defined as the transmission of the apostles’ teachings through the forms of Scripture, the rule of faith, and episcopal succession. Early Christians, e.g., Irenaeus, Tertullian, and Origen, believed that these channels preserved the original apostolic doctrines, and that the Church had faithfully handed them to successive generations. The Greek historians located the quintessence of the apostolic tradition through these traditional channels. However, the content of the tradition became transposed as a result of three historical movements during the fourth century: (1) Constantine inaugurated an era of Christian emperors, (2) the Council of Nicaea promulgated a creed in 325 A.D., and (3) monasticism emerged as a counter-cultural movement. Due to the confluence of these sweeping historical developments, the historians assumed the Nicene creed, the monastics, and Christian emperors into their taxonomy of the apostolic tradition. For reasons that crystallize long after Nicaea, the historians concluded that pro-Nicene theology epitomized the apostolic message. They accepted the introduction of new vocabulary, e.g. homoousios, as the standard of orthodoxy. In addition, the historians commended the pro- Nicene monastics and emperors as orthodox exemplars responsible for defending the apostolic tradition against the attacks of heretical enemies. The second chapter of this dissertation surveys the development of the apostolic tradition.

  • Eusebius Vercelli
    St. Eusebius of Vercelli lived in an interesting time. In his early life, Christianity was illegal and he even saw his own father die a martyr’s death in Sardinia. He lived through the Edict of Milan, when the leaders of the western and eastern empires agreed to treat Christians benevolently. This, however, led to many becoming Christians for political reasons or without much commitment; and further led to the multiplication and spread of various heresies. One such heresy was Arianism, which denied that Jesus was “consubstantial with the Father” ... claiming He was a created being, and not “God from God, Light from Light, True God from True God.” In fact, these words from our Creed were written in direct opposition to Arianism - which believed that Jesus was a created being, different from God and different from humanity ... who was created to save humanity. Sort of a demi-god with divine attributes and human attributes. Eusebius found himself in the middle of this controversy, and even though the government was treating Christians benevolently, the Arians were adamant in trying to change the Apostolic teachings of the Church. Eventually the Emperor got involved, and wanted some sort of compromise, but Eusebius stood for the Faith ... and was sent into exile. After three exiles, he was finally allowed to return from exile - at the age of 78 ... and he died ten years later in the year 371. As we approach this altar to receive the Sacred Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ - let us pray for a deeper understanding of our Catholic Faith ..

(1) The object of this thesis is to examine the schism in the Church of Antioch during the Arian Controversy of the Fourth century, with a view to establishing what coherent order, if any, can be found in the course of events, and to show how the interaction of theological emphases and personal prejudices exacerbated and prolonged the Antiochene divisions.

  • The Holy See
    The Holy See BENEDICT XVI GENERAL AUDIENCE Paul VI Audience Hall Wednesday, 5 December 2007 Saint Chromatius of Aquileia Dear Brothers and Sisters, In the last two Catecheses we made an excursion through the Eastern Churches of Semitic tongue, meditating on Aphraates the Persian and Ephrem the Syrian. Today, we return to the Latin world, to the North of the Roman Empire with St Chromatius of Aquileia. This Bishop exercised his ministry in the ancient Church of Aquileia, a fervent centre of Christian life located in the Roman Empire's Decima regione, the Venetia et Histria. In 388 A.D., when Chromatius assumed the Episcopal throne of the city, the local Christian communities had already developed a glorious history of Gospel fidelity. Between the middle of the third century and the early years of the fourth, the persecution of Decius, Valerian and Diocletian had taken a heavy toll of martyrs. Furthermore, the Church of Aquileia, like so many other Churches of that time, had had to contend with the threat of the Arian heresy. Athanasius himself - a standard-bearer of Nicene orthodoxy whom the Arians had banished to exile - had for some time been in Aquileia, where he had taken refuge. Under the guidance of its Bishops, the Christian community withstood the snares of the heresy and reinforced their own attachment to the Catholic faith. In September 381, Aquileia was the seat of a Synod that gathered about 35 Bishops from the coasts of Africa, the Rhone Valley and the entire Decima regione. The Synod intended to eliminate the last remnants of Arianism in the West.

  • Athanasius of Alexandria
    Athanasius of Alexandria “Athanasius” redirects here. For other uses, see Church, Oriental and Eastern Orthodox churches, the Athanasius (disambiguation). Lutherans, and the Anglican Communion. For the Italian bishop, see Athanasius I (bishop of Naples). 1 Biography Saint Athanasius of Alexandria (/ˌæθəˈneɪʃəs/; Greek: Ἀθανάσιος Ἀλεξανδρείας, Athanásios Alexandrías; c. 296–298 – 2 May 373), also called Athanasius the Great, Athanasius the Confessor or, primarily in the Coptic Orthodox Church, Athanasius the Apostolic, was the twentieth bishop of Alexandria (as Athanasius I). His episcopate (because of the importance of the see, considered an archbishopric by Rome, the Coptic papacy, or an Orthodox patriarchate) lasted 45 years (c. 8 June 328 – 2 May 373), of which over 17 were spent in five ex- iles ordered by four different Roman emperors. Athana- sius is a renowned Christian theologian, a Church Father, the chief defender of Trinitarianism against Arianism, and a noted Egyptian leader of the fourth century. Conflict with Arius and Arianism as well as successive Roman emperors shaped Athanasius’ career. In 325, at the age of 27, Athanasius began his leading role against the Arians as his bishop’s assistant during the First Coun- cil of Nicaea. Roman emperor Constantine the Great had convened the council in May–August 325 to address the Arian position that the Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth, is of a distinct substance from the Father.[1] Three years after that council, Athanasius succeeded his mentor as archbishop of Alexandria. In addition to the conflict with the Arians (including powerful and influential Arian churchmen led by Eusebius of Nicomedia), he struggled against the Emperors Constantine, Constantius II, Julian Statue in Catania, Sicily.
