One of the things that really helped Christianity gain acceptance in the empire was the willingness to stay behind and care for the sick when the plagues happened, such as the Antonine Plague of 165-180. While Roman leaders and politicians fled to their estates, Christians stayed and cared for the sick no matter the risk to themselves.

[@SuperGreatSphinx]

Compassion

[@davidroberts7282]

That was one major reason why Roman Emperor Marcus Aurelius passed an edict of tolerance for Christians and other religious minorities in late 160's-170 C.E. when he was busy spending the next decade of his life and reign fighting Germanic Marcomanni incursions into Pannonia (modern-day Hungary, Czech Republic) until his death, presumably from measles (Antonine Plague) in 180 C.E. and his rash, immature, decadent, and idiotic son, Commodus, signed a peace treaty, granting certain Roman lands to Marcomanni who moved in and were emboldened. The Antonine Plague, IMHO, was Europe's first real introduction or kind of a eerie foreshadowing of the later medieval "Black Death" bubonic plagues 1,200 years later. Its been labeled by historians and classicists as ancient world's "Black Death" and in fact, Aurelius' brother and co-regent, Lucius Verus, died in 167-68 C.E. of measles and Aurelius nearly died on campaign in Germania not too long afterwards but was treated by the ancient scientist/physician Galen (who also treated wounded/sick gladiators in Pergamon, and earlier in Rome). Historians have long argued that Commodus reign and the endless chaos, political turmoil, and barbarian invasions that terrorized Rome afterwards until the "Anarchy" period, and while I think it has a lot of merit, even if Commodus had been a better, intelligent ruler or smarter, effective Emperor had reigned instead, I still see Rome experiencing many of the same divisions it went through during the third century C.E. Rome really began its long, centuries-long decline probably towards the end of Hadrian's reign/Antonius Pius rule, as Roman military might/dominance had begun to show its weaknesses and limits due to "imperial over-reach". During Hadrian'a reign, some territories, that Trajan had exhausted very hard to conquer, like Armenia and Mesopotamia, were abandoned and the existing empire was instead dedicated to be re-consolidated. The Roman Age of conquests was over, by the start of Emperor Hadrian and I really think this slowly morphed into a gradually-rotting inertia and then absolute decay.

[@Teemo6544]

It wasn’t just that reason. Christianity contradicted almost every Roman belief and value, politically and religiously. Christians refused to take part in sacrifice and offerings which to the Romans, was important to get the gods on their side. They refused to worship the emperor as a God which would’ve have been a bad look in the eyes of the emperor. Early Christians also refused to take part in the army because of their pacifist beliefs. It was multiple factors. Not just the monotheistic beliefs

In fact The World God wise we have a truer God belief system and be more god-fearing with several Gods instead of just one lonely fake God and actually polytheism beats monotheism every time God wise because having many all-powerful supreme sources of reality makes more sense than having one loan fake God who is very contradictory and errorful in fact it makes way more sense in his spiritually fulfilling and is perfect people only object to multiple gods because they're not used to it but if they really were really practicing and talk to pagans like us they realize how wrong they are theologically philosophically spiritually etc etc etc even holy text wise because the Bible isn't the only text that has an antiquity well there are other texts after during and before the Bible is even made up or they're fake God was invented in their myths were invented they have the similar almost the same or similar messages of spirituality storytells of people and legends good tales morals sacred texts philosophy influence inspiration etc etc and even more so than the Bible could Bible one out because of conspiracy deception and lies and all those texts either have been hidden away or some of them have been burned and we haven't be able to see him yet since either way in the modern day view all those are gone only a few know about them and we're fighting to turn the whole world back around and get rid of all these Christianity beliefs and Free people

[@bernardolima7651]

What secular historians can't understand is that the great Christian martyrs do not die 'for something they believe' or because it's 'the best way to spread the message'. We die so that those who kill us can live. So that they can have the opportunity to get to know the true life that we are all supposed to live: the divine life, union with God, deification. For a secular mind only the worldly and material things are accessible when examining the reasons of things. But for us, christians, the ultimate goal of everything has been revealed in the Cross of our God and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Saint Ignatius of Antioch is a great example of this. Like Saint Maximus, the Confessor said almost six centuries after him, those who aprehend the meaning of the Cross get to know the essential principles of this world. If you want to live, pick up your Cross, and follow the Prince of Life to eternal well being.

It is pretty curious that Ignatius's Christian faith cost him his life at that time, considering that during the reign of Trajan the persecutions against Christians was eliminated after the bloody purges of Domitian (which inspired the creation of "The Book of Revelations"). Said cessation of the persecutions was maintained during the reigns of Hadrian and Antoninus Pius, but Christianity was prohibited again during the Age of Marcus Aurelius. Anyway, it's pretty ironic that the persecutions against Christians caused their religion to become more and more popular, since the people of the Empire watched with admiration how many condemned to die in the Colosseum by antichrists such as Nero or Decius accepted their fate with great dignity, which only served to convince the inhabitants that it was the best religious way of life that existed, as it had an afterlife worth giving one's life for. Because of this, Christianity was already an unstoppable force during the last great persecution perpetrated by Diocletian

Here's a quick quote from one of those 7 letters St Ignatius wrote. "Wherever the bishop shall appear, there let the multitude [of the people] also be; even as, wherever Jesus Christ is, there is the Catholic Church."

[@watermirror]

The Roman Catholic Church that we know of wasn't born yet at that time

[@DUZCO10]

@watermirror well let's see what kind of catholic church St Ignatius believed in. He wrote, " Let us stand aloof from such heretics They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer, because they confess not the Eucharist to be the flesh of our Saviour Jesus Christ, which suffered for our sins, and which the Father, of His goodness, raised up again. The real presence in the eucharist is exactly what our catholic church teaches today. Sounds like one and the same. Do you believe or are you a heretic that St ignatius wrote about?

[@internautaoriginal9951]

@@watermirror You are 100% right just look at the Bereans These Bereans exhibited several positive characteristics that marked their response to the gospel message. First and foremost, the Bereans were “more noble” because of their willing reception of the Word of God. Unlike the unbelieving Thessalonian Jews, the Bereans were eager to hear the teaching of Paul and Silas. Second, the Bereans examined what they heard by comparing it to the Old Testament Scriptures. The fact that they honestly listened and conducted further personal research led many Bereans to faith in Jesus as the Messiah. This expansion of Christianity was not limited to those within the synagogue, but also extended to many Greek men and women in Berea. Third, the Bereans guarded Paul’s safety. When Paul’s enemies arrived from nearby Thessalonica, the Berean believers protected Paul by getting him out of the region. They did not turn him over to his enemies or disassociate from him as the Jews from Thessalonica might have expected. Fourth, the Bereans continued to grow in their faith. After Paul’s departure, Silas and Timothy remained in Berea. Why? The Bible does not explicitly say, but one reason was probably to give the Berean Christians a chance to obtain further instruction in the Christian faith. Later in the book of Acts, we are given further insight into the faithfulness of at least one Berean man. When Paul decides to return for additional ministry in Macedonia despite the tremendous persecution he had recently faced, one of the men who chose to accompany him was from Berea: “There he spent three months, and when a plot was made against him by the Jews as he was about to set sail for Syria, he decided to return through Macedonia. Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him” (Acts 20:3-4). Sopater, likely a Gentile Christian, continued to assist Paul (and Timothy) in ministry long after Paul’s first visit to Berea. In summary, the Bereans have long been seen as a positive example of how a person or community should respond to biblical teaching. We are called to eagerly learn from God’s Word and, no matter who the teacher is, to investigate new teaching in comparison with the Bible. The practice of the ancient Bereans is a model for all who desire to grow spiritually today.

Here is scientific proof: In 750AD, a priest experienced a terrible temptation to doubt the True Presence while He was saying Mass. As he pronounced the words of consecration, the host and the wine transformed into what appeared to be flesh and blood. In 1970, more than 1,200 years later, the archbishop of Lanciano, with Rome’s approval, requested a thorough scientific examination of the miraculous relics by Dr. Edward Linoli, director of the hospital at Arezzo and professor of anatomy, histology, chemistry, and clinical microscopy. His report, submitted on March 4, 1971, detailed the following results: The coagulated substance is human blood, AB blood type, with the same protein distribution as found in normal, fresh blood The host is human muscular striated tissue of the myocardium, left ventricle (heart); arteries, veins, branch of vagus nerve, and adipose tissue all can be identified Like the blood, the flesh is also fresh, living tissue, because it “responded rapidly to all the clinical reactions distinctive of living beings” as if the flesh and blood samples had been taken that day Histological tests revealed no sign of preservation techniques of any kind The Miracles in the Age of Science Until the 1990s, Lanciano was the only proven case of the Eucharist turning into human flesh. Other cases have not been tested with modern scientific equipment, nor have the many dozens of bloodstains on corporals and chalices that have been preserved and are venerated as having come from bleeding hosts. But in 1992, the miracles started happening again. 1992 and 1996, Buenos Aires, Argentina: In 1992, consecrated particles left on the corporal were put into water to dissolve and locked in the tabernacle, as the Church prescribes for disposing of consecrated hosts. One week later, they had changed into a red substance. Then again in 1996 after a consecrated host fell to the ground and was also put in water to dissolve, it was found a few days later to have turned into a bloody substance. Both cases were sent to be tested by the archbishop of Buenos Aires, who was none other than our future Pope Francis. 2006, Tixtla, Mexico: During a retreat, a religious sister who was distributing Communion looked down and noticed that one of the Hosts had begun to bleed and transform. 2008, Sokolka, Poland: A consecrated Host fell to the ground during Communion and was put in water and locked in a tabernacle to dissolve. A week later, most of the Host was dissolved except for a red “clot” that remained. 2013, Legnica, Poland: A consecrated Host fell and was put in water and locked in a tabernacle. Two weeks later a red spot covered one-fifth of the undissolved Host. Startling Scientific Results Each of these occurrences received intensive study with highly advanced technology. In several cases, doctors did not know the source of the material. And yet, in all the cases, the same results were found, and are consistent with the results of Lanciano, providing even more details due to more advanced science: The blood is human, AB blood type; human DNA was found; white blood cells, red blood cells, hemoglobin, and mycrophages were present, indicating fresh blood; in the Tixtla miracle, the blood clearly emanated from within, because the blood on the surface had begun to coagulate but the interior blood was still fresh, as with a bleeding wound The flesh is human myocardium tissue of the left ventricle of an inflamed heart; in the miracles from Argentina and Poland, there was evidence of trauma from the presence of thrombi, indicating repeated lack of oxygen; lesions present showed rapid cardiac spasms typical in the final phases of death In the Sokolka miracle, the remaining host is tightly interconnected with the fibers of human tissue, penetrating each other inseparably - as if the bread were transforming into flesh. “Even NASA scientists, who have at their disposal the most modern analytical techniques, would not be able to artificially recreate such a thing,” affirmed Dr. Sobaniec-Lotowska, one of the examining experts. Dr. Frederick Zugibe, a forensic doctor at Columbia University who examined the Argentinian miracle, did not know the source of the sample and told the doctor who brought it to him, “If white blood cells were present (in the heart tissue), it is because at the moment you brought me the sample, it was pulsating.” When he learned the source of the sample, he was shocked and deeply moved.

Rome on it's place, being more famous than any city from Israel.

[@samuraijosh1595]

Israel is a political entity. Point to me anywhere in the Bible where the political entity of Israel is emphasized? It's always about the tribe.

[@blomobloom9639]

Israel isn't owned by Christians even today. Maybe Rome

When I am baptized into the Holy Orthodox Church I think I will take his name. Through the Prayers of your Holy Martyr Ignatius, Lord have mercy on me🙏🏻☦️

[@voornaamachternaam6159]

Baptism only will not save you. A christening is why people call themselves Christians. And this is a personal happening. Not by a material church with robe cloathed people pouring water over your head. Thats only the symbolism and a part of a greater mystery.

[@marcocortes9968]

No offense brother, but you should ask God what name he has for you. He might have a special name for you and it might not be this one. Our plans sometimes aren’t his plans. All with love

Well like Jesus once said Faith without Good Works is dead. You don’t need to be overly religious to speak your mind, defend and care for others, and to die for what you believe in.

Exactly in the same way the modern world thinks that suppressing the gospel and Christians would stop from spreading the gospel, I wish they had known that it would only create a reverse effect. They can't stop the spirit of God, who is on the move to bring thousands of lost souls to his kingdom. May we get the courage to hold unto our faith.

​@@NoQuestionsAskeddThe martyrs aren't important for salvation it's Good to revisit history but most of this stuff is already in the Bible Paul and other deciples being treated badly it's kind of bias since every country has there martyr stories so why should it be a must to learn about Ignatius its good for those who pursue it but it's not necessary
