St. Fabian Catholic.net XX Pope and Saint. “The blood of the martyrs is the seed of the Church” (Tertullian) Roman martyrology: Eusebius, a Church historian, says a dove flew in and settled on the head of Fabian. This sign united the votes of clergy and laity, and he was chosen unanimously. SHORT BIOGRAPHY Fabian was a Roman layman who came into the city from his farm one day as clergy and people were preparing to elect a new pope. Eusebius, a Church historian, relates how Fabian had been elected pope: In an assembly of the people and clergy, held for the election of a pastor in his room, a dove, unexpectedly appearing, settled, to the great surprise of all present, on the head of St. Fabian, and that this miraculous sign united the votes of the clergy and people in promoting him, though not thought of before, as being a layman and a stranger. He was the first layman to be pope. página 1 / 2 St. Fabian Catholic.net To us the dove signifies peace, and this dove was prophetic. Starting close to Fabian's election, the suffering and persecuted Church began a time of peace. The emperor, Philip, was friendly to Christians and not only was the persecution stopped but Christians experienced acceptance. In this era of peace, Fabian was able to build up the structure of the Church of Rome, appointing seven deacons and helping to collect the acts of the martyrs. He governed the church sixteen years, sent St. Dionysius and other preachers into Gaul, and condemned Privatus, a broacher of a new heresy in Africa, as appears from St. Cyprian. St. Fabian died a glorious martyr in the persecution of Decius, in 250, as St. Cyprian and St. Jerome witness. The former, writing to his successor, St. Cornelius, calls him an incomparable man, and says that the glory of his death had answered the purity and holiness of his life. Early writers also say that he was an extraordinary person, known to be very holy. Bishop and martyr, Fabian's remains are now in the basilica of St. Sebastian. página 2 / 2 Powered by TCPDF (www.tcpdf.org).

Calendar of Roman Events
Introduction Steve Worboys and I began this calendar in 1980 or 1981 when we discovered that the exact dates of many events survive from Roman antiquity, the most famous being the ides of March murder of Caesar. Flipping through a few books on Roman history revealed a handful of dates, and we believed that to fill every day of the year would certainly be impossible. From 1981 until 1989 I kept the calendar, adding dates as I ran across them. In 1989 I typed the list into the computer and we began again to plunder books and journals for dates, this time recording sources. Since then I have worked and reworked the Calendar, revising old entries and adding many, many more. The Roman Calendar The calendar was reformed twice, once by Caesar in 46 BC and later by Augustus in 8 BC. Each of these reforms is described in A. K. Michels’ book The Calendar of the Roman Republic. In an ordinary pre-Julian year, the number of days in each month was as follows: 29 January 31 May 29 September 28 February 29 June 31 October 31 March 31 Quintilis (July) 29 November 29 April 29 Sextilis (August) 29 December. The Romans did not number the days of the months consecutively. They reckoned backwards from three fixed points: The kalends, the nones, and the ides. The kalends is the first day of the month. For months with 31 days the nones fall on the 7th and the ides the 15th. For other months the nones fall on the 5th and the ides on the 13th.

FOURTH AVENUE AND 30TH STREET THE FALSE DECRETALS BY E. H. DAVENPORT, B.A. LATE SCHOLAR OF QUEEN's COLLEGE, OXFORD LOTHIAN PRIZEMAN, I9I4 B. H. BLACKWELL, BROAD STREET HCMXVI 5 PREFACE The present thesis has grown out of the Lothian Essay for 1914 on the Pseudo-Isidorian Decretals. The conclusions of that essay remain the same : but the form and * order have been re-cast, and the general arguments have been amplified, and I hope strengthened, after a year's further reading. It will be very clear that the subject has not been exhausted. I have not discussed, for instance, as it was not strictly relevant, the Prankish Church in the ninth century from the economic and doctrinal points of view. Nor have I drawn suflSciently upon the volu- minous erudition of German critics. All this in better days must be done. But, seeing that there is not in English any comprehensive sketch of the Pseudo-Isidorian Decretals, I have thought fit to publish this thesis as it stands. I am much indebted to the Rev. A. J. Carlyle, D.Litt., for the exceeding value of his criticisms before and after going into print.

The Early Ancient Christian Inscriptions in the Christian Epigraphy
European Journal of Science and Theology, June 2015, Vol.11, No.3, 21-30 _______________________________________________________________________ THE EARLY ANCIENT CHRISTIAN INSCRIPTIONS IN THE CHRISTIAN EPIGRAPHY Peter Caban* Catholic University at Ružomberok, Faculty of Arts and Letters, Hrabovská cesta 1, SK 034 01 Ružomberok, Slovakia (Received 5 April 2014, revised 24 January 2015) Abstract Christian epigraphy is the science about Christian inscriptions which existed in the ancient world. It studies the inscriptions of monumental nature, i.e. all the inscriptions and texts which were written on solid material. As the historical discipline it studies the inscriptions in all their cultural and historical contexts. It makes the inscriptions available for further scientific research. The Christian epigraphy studies the inscriptions in the West until the time of Caroline renaissance and in the East until the time of iconoclasm. Christian epigraphy studies the external form of inscriptions and their arrangement because the ancient written expression was an important source for other scientific disciplines such as Palaeography, Orthography, Linguistics, development of Latin and Greek languages (κοινή – koiné) and for morphology of late classic languages. Christian epigraphy studies not only a form but also the contents of the ancient Christian inscriptions and texts and it enables to look at the private and public life of first Christians. Ancient Christian inscriptions enable us to understand the inner Church organization, its legal norms, liturgy and artistic expressions of first Christians but chiefly the dogmatic truths of the early Church. Keywords: inscriptions, Christian epigraphy, life, Christians, Christian archaeology 1. Introduction Ancient Christian inscriptions studied by Christian epigraphy are on the solid material of various kinds.

Call to Holiness
Call to Holiness January 2014 Bulletin Supplement Catholic saints are holy people and human people who lived extraordinary lives. Each saint the Church honors responded to God's invitation to use his or her unique gifts. God calls each one of us to be a saint. January 1: Mary, Mother of God Mary’s divine motherhood broadens the Christmas spotlight. Mary has an important role to play in the Incarnation of the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity. She consents to God’s invitation conveyed by the angel (Luke 1:26-38). Elizabeth proclaims: “Most blessed are you among women and blessed is the fruit of your womb. And how does this happen to me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?” (Luke 1:42-43, emphasis added). Mary’s role as mother of God places her in a unique position in God’s redemptive plan. Without naming Mary, Paul asserts that “God sent his Son, born of a woman, born under the law” (Galatians 4:4). Paul’s further statement that “God sent the spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying out ‘Abba, Father!’“ helps us realize that Mary is mother to all the brothers and sisters of Jesus. Some theologians also insist that Mary’s motherhood of Jesus is an important element in God’s creative plan. God’s “first” thought in creating was Jesus. Jesus, the incarnate Word, is the one who could give God perfect love and worship on behalf of all creation. As Jesus was “first” in God’s mind, Mary was “second” insofar as she was chosen from all eternity to be his mother.
