http://www.fathersofthechurch.com/quiz-files/final_melito.png You are St. Melito of Sardis!
You have a great love of history and liturgy. You’re attached to the traditions of the ancients, yet you recognize that the old world — great as it was — is passing away. You are loyal to the customs of your family, though you do not hesitate to call family members to account for their sins.

You are St. Jerome!

You’re a passionate Christian, fiercely devoted to Jesus Christ and his Church. You are willing to labor long hours in the Lord’s vineyard, and you have little patience with those who are less willing or able to work as you do. Your passions often carry you into temptation zones of wrath, lust, and pride.




:thumbsup: That is so spot-on!!! :D

You are Tertullian!

You possess many gifts, but patience isn’t one of them. You’re tough on yourself — and on others. You’re independent, too, and you don’t like to be told what to do. You wish the Church would be a little tighter in discipline. As for the pagans, you’ve pretty much written them off. Sometimes you think the Church would be a better place if you were in charge.

Another Jerome

:clap: Jerome's Rule! ^_^

you are Origen! Then i did the quiz again, substituting a couple different answers that I was debating about and I was still Origen.....?

You do nothing by half-measures. If you’re going to read the Bible, you want to read it in the original languages. If you’re going to teach, you’re going to reach as many souls as possible, through a proliferation of lectures and books. If you’re a guy and you’re going to fight for purity … well, you’d better hide the kitchen shears.

[Finella]

Origen here, too! :D

[Polycarp1]

I didn't take the quiz. But then, I doubt anyone would ever guess which Church Father I most closely identify with! ;)

You are St. Justin Martyr!

You have a positive and hopeful attitude toward the world. You think that nature, history, and even the pagan philosophers were often guided by God in preparation for the Advent of the Christ. You find “seeds of the Word” in unexpected places. You’re patient and willing to explain the faith to unbelievers.

[Izdaari]

I too am St. Justin Martyr. To be honest, I know very little about him, but I like the description and it does seem to fit me.

[ContraMundum]

I got:

Uncanny. Really.
