克利密斯于公元258年出生于安基拉城,他的父亲是异教徒,母亲是一名基督徒。他虔诚的母亲欧福罗新预言她的儿子将成为殉道者。当克利密斯12岁那年母亲去世了。欧福罗新的朋友索菲亚将克利密斯领回家里,将其作为养子,在基督精神中将其抚养成人。克利密斯因其圣洁的生活而闻名,因此,在20岁的时候,他就被选举为安基拉的主教。虽然年纪轻轻,但是他却拥有成熟的智慧。他以极大的节制来驯服、战胜自己的身体。克利密斯只食面包和蔬菜,不吃任何经过屠宰的或带血的东西。在狄克雷蒂在位期间,他忍受了可怕的折磨,可堪称是“史无前例的”。他在艰苦的环境和地牢中渡过了28年,共有11名不同的迫害者对他施以折磨。有一次,当他们打他的脸,在他身上吐唾沫,打断了他的牙齿,他对施刑者德门蒂安喊道:“喂!德门蒂安,你太抬举我了,你这不是在拷打我,因为我主耶稣的嘴和脸也遭受过人的毒打,我这个不配之人现在却受到了同耶稣同样的待遇!”当克利密斯被带到罗马时,戴克里先皇帝在他面前一边摆放了各种刑具,另一边摆放了许多礼物,例如金饰(勋章)、衣服和钱,即皇帝所能赐的所有至宝,然后让克利密斯进行选择。这位基督的殉道者对皇帝的至宝投去轻蔑的一瞥,毅然选择了刑具。克利密斯遭受了难以形容的酷刑:他们一块一块地割掉他的身体上的肉,露出了白花花的骨头。最后,他在安基拉被一士兵斩首,当时,他正作为主教在教堂里主持事奉圣礼,时年为公元312年。圣克利密斯不断地创造着奇迹。 If you like our project and you are satisfied with our work and effort, please consider making a donation that would help us to survive on the Internet and in further development of the project.
