Saint Prisca & The Chair of Saint Peter Explained | Virgin Martyr & Papal Authority (18 January)

About this sermon

Ave Maria Purissima. In today’s reflection, we honor Saint Prisca, a 13-year-old virgin martyr of first-century Rome, who courageously refused to sacrifice to idols under Emperor Claudius. After scourging, torture with oil, and being exposed to wild beasts—who miraculously refused to harm her—Saint Prisca was ultimately beheaded for Christ. We also reflect on the ancient and often misunderstood feast of The Chair of Saint Peter, traditionally celebrated in Rome and Antioch. This feast does not celebrate a physical chair, but rather the teaching authority (Cathedra) given by Christ to Saint Peter and handed down through apostolic succession. You’ll also hear the dramatic account of Simon Magus, the sorcerer who challenged Saint Peter in Rome before Emperor Nero, and how his downfall led directly to the arrest and martyrdom of Saint Peter and Saint Paul. This video is a reminder to: Give thanks for the Office of Peter Understand the Deposit of Faith Pray fervently for the current occupant of the See of Peter May God preserve His Church and strengthen her shepherds. 00:00 – Ave Maria Purissima & Opening Prayer 00:11 – Who Was Saint Prisca? 00:18 – Torture, Miracles, and Martyrdom of Saint Prisca 00:43 – Feast of the Chair of Saint Peter Explained 00:57 – Peter in Antioch vs Rome 01:13 – Protestant Revolt & Liturgical History 01:32 – The Actual Chair of Saint Peter in St. Peter’s Basilica 01:53 – Why Bishops Teach Seated (Cathedra) 02:09 – Meaning of Peter’s Teaching Authority 02:25 – Simon Magus & Nero’s Court 02:44 – The Fall of Simon Magus 03:07 – Arrest & Martyrdom of Peter and Paul 03:23 – Gratitude for the Papacy 03:43 – Prayer for the Current Pope For more please visit https://www.veritascaritas.com/ & remember to say 3 Hail Mary for the priest 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 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/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 ▶️ 1.
