ST IGNATIUS OF ANTIOCH - 17th OCTOBER

~thread~
1. St Ignatius was a successor of St Peter as Bishop of Antioch. The young Church still had to operate extremely carefully and as inconspicuous as possible because the Roman authorities were constantly on the case of the Faithful. Image
2. [This difficult situation continued until a Roman Emperor had a dream that he would win the battles of the Roman Empire under the sign of the cross and finally became a Christian – this was Emperor Constantine.]

3. On his journey to Rome Ignatius wrote seven letters to different churches about Christ, the structure of the Church and Christian life. Eventually, St Ignatius was martyred under the Emperor Trajan by being thrown to the lions in the Colosseum in 107 A.D.
