Church historian Eusebius of Caesarea wr ites that St. Ignatius succeeded St. Evodius\, likewise St. John Chrysosto m states St. Peter specifically chose St. Ignatius to be his successor. Ig natius is also called Theophorus in Greek which means 'God-Borne' because of the tradition that he was the child Christ held according to the Gospel of Matthew 18:2-3. Theophorus may also be interpreted as 'God-Bearer' bec ause of the virtue practiced by Ignatius in witnessing God as is expected of every true believer. In Syriac he is given the title Noorono or 'Illumi nator/fire-bearer'. St. Ignatius wrote 7 letters to root out the heresies which were plaguing the early Church. The letters are addressed to Ephesia ns\, Magnesians\, Trallians\, Romans\, Philadelphians\, Smyrnaeans\, &\ ; to his friend St. Polycarpos the bishop of Smyrna. He wrote these letter s en route from Smyrna to Rome where he was to be executed. Some of the mo st important quotations from his writings against heresies include the fol lowing: He stresses Christ’s true humanity &\; identifies it with the healing food of the Eucharist\, calling the Body of Christ "medicine of i mmortality" Further\, he describes: every time this mystery is celebrated\ , “the work of our redemption is carried on &\; we break the one brea d that provides the antidote for death &\; the food that makes us live forever in Jesus Christ.Take note of those who hold heterodox opinions on the grace of Jesus Christ which has come to us\, &\; see how contrary t heir opinions are to the mind of God... They abstain from the Eucharist &a mp\; from prayer because they do not confess that the Eucharist is the fle sh of our Savior Jesus Christ\, flesh which suffered for our sins &\; w hich that Father\, in his goodness\, raised up again. They who deny the gi ft of God are perishing in their disputes."St. Ignatius was ordered to be executed by Roman Emperor Trajan. Bishop Polycarp welcomed St. Ignatius on his way to Rome (to be executed) under armed guard. Several Syrian Christ ian delegates from other churches at Smyrna received him. At Rome he was t hrown into the amphitheater filled with voracious lions to be devoured on October 17th. It is said that only the toughest of his bones remained. Thu s Mor Ignatius Noorono attained the crown of martyrdom. His relics were th en taken to Antioch &\; venerated by the pious believers. Emperor Theod osius II later moved his relics to another church in the city on December 20th.Biography courtesy of\, 'Martyrs\, Saints and Prelates of the Syriac Orthodox Church'Oh Mor Ignatius Noorono!
