Ὁ Φώτιος ἦταν ἀνεψιὸς τοῦ Ἀνικήτου. Κατάγονταν καὶ οἱ δυὸ ἀπὸ τὴ Νικομήδεια. Ὅταν ὁ Διοκλητιανὸς θέλησε νὰ κινήσει διωγμὸ κατὰ τῶν χριστιανῶν, μίλησε μπροστὰ στὴν Σύγκλητο μὲ τοὺς πιὸ ὑβριστικοὺς λόγους ἐναντίον τους. Ἐκεῖ ἦταν παρὼν καὶ ὁ Ἀνίκητος, ποὺ ὅταν ἄκουσε αὐτὰ τὰ λόγια τοῦ βασιλιά, ὄχι μόνο δὲν φοβήθηκε, ἀλλὰ σηκώθηκε μὲ θάρρος, δήλωσε ὅτι εἶναι χριστιανὸς καὶ εἶπε στὸ Διοκλητιανό: «Πλανᾶσαι, βασιλιά, ἂν νομίζεις ὅτι μὲ τὰ μέτρα κατὰ τῶν Χριστιανῶν θὰ πετύχεις τοὺς ἀσεβεῖς σκοπούς σου. Μάθε ὅτι οἱ χριστιανοὶ ἀποτελοῦν σήμερα τὴν ὑγιέστερη μερίδα τῆς ρωμαϊκῆς αὐτοκρατορίας. Καὶ θὰ ἦταν ἀνόητοι καὶ ἀναίσθητοι ἂν πίστευαν στὰ εἴδωλα. Γι’ αὐτὸ, ὅποια μέτρα καὶ ἂν πάρεις ἐναντίον τους, στὸ τέλος ζημιωμένος θὰ εἶσαι ἐσύ, ἐνῷ αὐτοὶ ἔνδοξοι μάρτυρες».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.
