Background on Pope Anterus

In his own words on Ephesians

  • Ephesians 4:29

    And be ye kind one to another, tender-hearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ hath forgiven you."

  • Ephesians 5:1

    And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Holy Spirit; speaking to yourselves in psalms, and hymns, and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your hearts to the Lord; giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting yourselves one to another in the fear of Christ."
