St. Eusebius

Speaker 0 00:00:02 I'm Maria Prisma and the name of the father and the son, the Holy spirit. Amen. Feast of Saint Sabian, a Catholic Bishop during the fourth century. And that sounds funny, but a giant number of the bishops were not Catholic it's during the area in crisis was raging at that time. And you had 90 to 98, 99% in various areas of the church or the bishops that became areas. So it was a complete disaster. The areas of course, uh, denied that Christ was God, the son. And, uh, they made him into a mere creature, uh, theologically right now the Jehovah's witnesses are areas, but they don't come from the same background. They just landed in that area in the same mistake. So they, anyway, you had this gigantic catastrophe like that, that not many of the bishops were faithful by any means. Athanasius in the East Eusebius was one of the ones in the West that was faithful. So that's his piece we're celebrating today. And it's a good occasion for us to think about our fidelity to the truth and whether, you know, whether and what we are willing to suffer. Our Lord says in the gospel day, what does it profit a man. If he gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his own soul, what exchange to a man give for his soul? Speaker 0 00:01:29 We see that exchange been given every day for money, for power, for pleasure. People exchange a lot of things for their stuff. We got to each look into our hearts and say, where am I with the Lord? If I'm called to render an account today, what will I say? Who's really raining in my heart.
