| | |  Cyprian: Encyclopedia II - Cyprian - Controversy over the Lapsed
The persecution was especially severe at Carthage, according to Church sources (Official sources are silent on this "Decian persecution.") Many Christians fell away, but afterward asked to be received again into the Church. Their request was early granted, no regard being paid to the demand of Cyprian and his faithful among the Carthaginian clergy, who insisted upon earnest repentance. The confessors among the more liberal group intervened t ...

| | | | Cyprian: Encyclopedia II - Cyprian - Persecution under Valerian At the end of 256 a new persecution of the Christians under Valerian broke out, and both Stephen and his successor, Xystus (Sixtus) II, suffered martyrdom at Rome.
In Africa Cyprian courageously prepared his people for the expected edict of persecution by his De exhortatione martyrii, and himself set an example when he was brought before the Roman proconsul Aspasius Paternus (August 30, 257). He refused to sacri ...

| | | | Cyprian: Encyclopedia - Antonine Plague The Antonine Plague AD 165-180, also known as the Plague of Galen, was an ancient pandemic, either of smallpox or measles brought back to the Roman Empire by troops returning from campaigns in the Near East. The epidemic claimed the lives of two Roman emperors — Lucius Verus, who died in 169, and his co-regent who ruled until 180, Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, whose family name, Antoninus, was given to the epidemic. The disease broke out again nine years later, according to the Roman historian Dio Cassius, and caused up to 2,000 deaths a day at Rome, one quarter of those infec ...

| | | | Cyprian: Encyclopedia II - Firmilian - Firmilian's letter to Cyprian In a letter to Pope Sixtus II (257–58), Dionysius mentions that in the controversy over rebaptism of the lapsed Pope Stephen had refused communication with Helenus of Tarsus, Firmilian, and all Cilicia and Cappadocia, and the neighbouring lands (Eusebius, VII, v, 3-4), a subject touched on in the sole surviving letter of Firmilian, a response to Cyprian. When the baptismal controversy arose, Cyprian wished to gain support from the Eastern churches against Pope Stephen for his own decision to rebaptize all heretics who returned to the Churc ...

| | | | Cyprian: Encyclopedia II - Euhemerus - Euhemerism and the Early Christians
Euhemerus - Cyprian.
The early Christian apologists deployed the euhemerist argument to support their position that pagan mythology was merely an aggregate of fables of human invention. Cyprian, a North African convert to Christianity, wrote a short essay, De idolorum vanitate ("On the Vanity of Idols") in 247 CE that takes the euhemeristic rationale as if needing no demonstration. Cyprian begins:
"That those are no gods whom the common people worship, is known from this: they were formerly ki ...

He particularly relies upon a register of the births and deaths of many of the gods, which his narrator persona discovered inscribed on a golden pillar in a temple on the invented island of Panchaea, when on a voyage round the coast of Arabia, undertaken at the request of Cassander of Macedon, according to Eusebius, He is said to have sailed down the Red Sea and round t ...

God: Sole Satisfier - St. Cyprian.
St. Cyprian is one of the Fathers of the Church. He is known for his defense against Nestorianism.
To those who seek the kingdom of God and his righteousness, he has promised to give all else besides. Since everything indeed belongs to God, he who possesses God wants for nothing, if he himself is not found wanting before God. [2]

| | | | Cyprian: Sole Satisfier: Encyclopedia II - God: Sole Satisfier - Theological and philosophical basis of the doctrine
God: Sole Satisfier - On the part of man.
According to Christian philosophy, the basis of the doctrine that only God satisfies the human soul is that the faculties of man which makes him really human are the intellect and will. These two faculties, which distinguishes him from animals, are "open to the infinite."
This means that with his intellect or mind, man can always "know more" i.e. he can keep on receiving new information, new meaning without ever filling up. He can also "love more", i.e. he can alwa ...

| | | | Cyprian: Sole Satisfier: Encyclopedia II - God: Sole Satisfier - Biblical basis Many biblical quotes come together to bring about the Christian belief in God as Sole Satisfier:
Jesus Christ whom Christian theology considers as God says: "Come to me all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me: for I am gentle and lowly in heart: and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden light." (Mt 11: 28-30)
Jesus Christ also said: "Consider the lilies, how they grow; they neither toil nor spin; yet I tell you, even Solomon in all ...
