He is also referred to as "Gregory\, the Theologian" He was baptized by his own father in AD 360. He received Christian education and training from his m other from childhood. He was ordained a priest by his father in AD 362 and started rendering help to his father. In AD 372 Gregory was consecrated t he Bishop of Sasima\, a small town by Mor Baselios. He disliked the lack o f independence imposed by administrative responsibilities. Moreover he pre ferred a solitary life which reduced his interest in being elevated to the rank of a bishop.\n\nHe spent a few years combating Arianism. The five sp eeches delivered by him in the church of Anastasia countering the heresy a nd defending the doctrine of the Trinity are famous. “The Father is the begetter and emitter\, the Son is the begotten and the Holy Spirit is the emission. The begetting of the Son and the Procession of the Spirit are be yond time\, so all three are co-eternal. While the Father may be greater t han the Son in the sense that he is the cause\, he is not greater by natur e\, for the two are of the same nature. The names\, Father and the Son mak e known to us an intimate relation within the Godhead”\n\nHe spoke thus of the preparation of priests when he was a young priest: “We must begin by purifying ourselves before purifying others\; we must be instructed to be able to instruct\, become light to illuminate\, draw close to God to b ring Him close to others\, be sanctified to sanctify\, lead by the hand an d counsel prudently. I know whose ministers we are\, where we find ourselv es and to where we strive. I know God’s greatness and man’s weakness\, but also his potential. Who then is the priest? He is the defender of tru th\, who stands with angels\, gives glory with archangels\, causes sacrifi ces to rise to the altar on high\, shares Christ’s priesthood\, refashio ns creation\, restores it in God’s image\, recreates it for the world on high"\n\nDue to the strong protest of the Arian mob and to avoid dissiden ce he resigned his position in AD 381 and retired to his native place\, Ar ianzus. He spent his time in prayer and fasting until he expired. LOCATION: END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
