Quote by Ignatius of Antioch
“Percorramos todas as gerações e aprendamos que, de geração em geração, o Senhor deu possibilidade de arrependimento a todos aqueles que queriam converter-se a ele. Noé pregou o arrependimento, e os que o escutaram foram salvos. Jonas anunciou a catástrofe aos ninivitas, e estes se arrependeram de seus pecados; aplacaram a Deus com suas súplicas e obtiveram salvação, embora fossem estrangeiros em relação a Deus.”

St. Ignatius of Antioch (35 -117)
(Ancient Greek: Ἰγνάτιος Ἀντιοχείας, Ignátios Antiokheías; ad c. 35 or 50 – 98 to 117), also known as Ignatius Theophorus (Ιγνάτιος ὁ Θεοφόρος, Ignátios ho Theophóros, lit. "the God-bearing"), was a student of John the Apostle, was the third bishop of Antioch, and is now counted among the Apostolic Fathers of the Christian Church.[En route to Rome, where according to Christian tradition he met his martyrdom by being fed to wild beasts, he wrote a series of letters which have been preserved as an example of very early Christian theology. Important topics addressed in these letters include ecclesiology, the sacraments, and the role of bishops. Ignatius modeled his writings after Paul, Peter, and John, and even quoted or paraphrased their own works freely, such as when he quoted 1 Cor 1:18, in his letter to the Ephesians.
