Today we celebrate the Translation of the Holy and Divine Theologian, John the Evangelist. Saint John was the son of Zebedee and Salome (one of the daughters of Saint Joseph the Betrothed), and the brother of James the Great. John and his brother were called at the same time to be followers of Christ and became two of the three (the other, Apostle Peter) closest disciples of Christ. They witnessed the healing of many people, the Light of the Transfiguration at Tabor, as well as many other miracles. Saint John, being the youngest of all the disciples, was also the most beloved disciple of Christ, following Him from the beginning of his ministry all the way to his Crucifixion and Burial. After the Resurrection of the Lord, the Evangelist took the Theotokos to his home as his own mother. After her Dormition, he went to Ephesus to preach the Word of God. Having been denounced by pagans, he was given a poisoned drink, which failed to kill him. He was then exiled to the island of Patmos where he converted many to Christ, but most famously, where he wrote the Book of Revelation, the last book of the Holy Bible. Having returned to Ephesus, he wrote the gospel under his name and also another 3 letters, all a part of the New Testament. Saint John lived to well over 100 and outlived every single eyewitness of Christ. By this time, his message was simple: love one another. He was buried and when some of his disciples came later to farewell him, they found his grave empty, thus his body having been translated to Heaven.

Today we celebrate the Holy Hieromartyr Irenaeus, Bishop of Lyon. Saint Irenaeus was a direct descendent of the Lord's grace, being a student of Saint Polycarp of Smyrna, who in turn was a student of Saint John the Evangelist, one of the 12 disciples of Christ. He wrote many works against heresies and won the glorious crown of martyrdom in his advanced age. Because of his many theological and anti-heretical works, he is considered to be one of the greatest Christian apologists and a Church Father. May he intercede for us all + #saint #irenaeus #lyon #france #bishop #hieromartyr #martyr #polycarp #smyrna #polycarpofsmyrna #johntheevangelist #johnthetheologian #johnthedivine #john #evangelist #theologian #againstheresies #heresy #churchfather #father #church #martyrdom #orthodox #saintoftheday (at Lyon, France) https://www.instagram.com/p/Chk3FSVP5E_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
