Saint Eucleus who testified in Caesarea
Saint Evlios lived in the years of Julian of the offender. Although newly married, this did not prevent him from actually showing his great love for Christ. In Caesarea of ​​Cappadocia, Julian had built an image of the goddess of fortune, which was worshiped by pagans every day. Evlios, after taking some other bold young men with him, went and overthrew the idol.
When he was arrested, he told the official that Julian has no right to act pagan things in Christian Caesarea. Of course, Evlokios knew in advance that the decision would be convicted.
Indeed, his associates were convicted of torture and exile. While he, as a leader of the act, was sentenced to death by beheading.
Thus, Evlokios was ranked in that part of the people, for which the Lord said, “Apostas his soul was deceived by her.” That is, he who will lose his life for his faith in me will win the long and higher life.
