St. Cyprian, Martyr and St. Justina, Virgin & Martyr (26 September) ~ Dom Prosper Guéranger

About this sermon

Saint Cyprian and Saint Justina, commemorated on September 26, offer a powerful testimony to the victory of Jesus Christ over sorcery, temptation, and the powers of darkness. Cyprian had been devoted to magic and the service of demons from his youth. When he attempted to use his occult arts against the Christian virgin Justina, however, every scheme failed before her faith, prayer, and use of the Sign of the Cross. Recognizing that the demons were powerless before Christ, Cyprian rejected his former life, destroyed his magical arts, and embraced the Christian Faith. Cyprian and Justina were later arrested, scourged, imprisoned, and cast into a boiling cauldron. Remaining steadfast in their confession of Christ, they were ultimately beheaded at Nicomedia. Their witness reminds Christians to reject every form of occultism and confidently seek protection beneath the Cross of Jesus Christ. 0:00 Sts.
