Byzantine Saints: Hieromartyr Haralambos, Bishop, Porphyrius and Baptus, & 3 Women (10 February)

About this sermon

The Hieromartyr Haralambos, Bishop of Magnesia in Thessaly, is commemorated by the Orthodox Church on February 10. Living in the early 3rd century, during the reign of Emperor Septimius Severus, Saint Haralambos boldly proclaimed Christ despite his extreme old age and the threat of brutal persecution. At more than one hundred years old, the holy bishop was arrested for refusing to sacrifice to idols. Subjected to horrific tortures—his flesh torn with iron hooks—Saint Haralambos endured everything with unwavering faith, thanking his tormentors for preparing him for eternal life. Witnessing his endurance, the soldiers Porphyrius (Pierius) and Baptus confessed Christ and were immediately beheaded. Three women who glorified Christ during the martyrdom were also put to death. Through the saint’s prayers, his torturers were miraculously healed, and many—including the governor Lucius—came to believe in Christ. Brought before the emperor in Antioch, Saint Haralambos performed astounding miracles: raising the dead, casting out demons, and bringing countless souls to faith—including Galina, the emperor’s own daughter. Even earthquakes and divine signs testified to the truth of the Gospel. Before his execution, the saint beheld Christ and the angels and prayed that wherever his relics would rest, there would be no famine, no disease, peace, abundance, and salvation of souls. God granted his request. Saint Haralambos reposed peacefully before the sword could touch him. This video presents the complete Orthodox hagiography of Saint Haralambos the Hieromartyr, a fearless witness to Christ, a healer, and a powerful intercessor for the faithful. ☦️ Holy Hieromartyr Haralambos, pray to God for us. 0:00 Feast of St Haralambos – February 10 0:27 Bishop of Magnesia and Early Life 0:45 Arrest and Confession of Christ 1:04 Brutal Tortures and Saint’s Endurance 1:22 Conversion of Soldiers Porphyrius and Baptus 1:29 Martyrdom of the Three Holy Women 1:39 Miracles and Healing of the Torturers 1:59 Mass Conversions to Christianity 2:15 Dragged to Antioch Before the Emperor 2:33 Fire Torture and Divine Protection 2:41 Miracles: Raising the Dead and Casting Out Demons 2:52 Conversion of Galina, the Emperor’s Daughter 3:16 Earthquake and Judgment on the Blasphemers 3:34 Final Sentence and Vision of Heaven 3:48 Saint’s Prayer for Peace, Abundance, and Salvation 4:07 Holy Repose of St Haralambos 4:15 Burial and Orthodox Tradition https://www.oca.org/saints/lives 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
