 | | Flavian, who died in February 404, iS venerated in both the Western and Eastern churches as a saint. | | | Through the intervention of Chrysostom, soon after his elevation to the patriarchate of Constantinople (398),and the influence of the emperorTheodosius, Flavian was acknowledged in 399 as legitimate bishop of Antioch by the Church of Rome; but the Eustathian schism was not finally healed till 415. | | | The two friends assembled their adherents outside the city walls for the observance of the exercises of religion; and, according to Theodoret, it was in these meetings that the practice of antiphonal singing was first introduced in the services of the church. |

| | CIN - St. Flavian, Martyr, Archbishop of Constantinople |
| | It was the glory of St. Flavian to die a martyr of the mystery of the incarnation of the Son of God. | | | A.D. ST FLAVIAN was a priest of distinguished merit, and treasurer of the church of Constantinople, when he succeeded St. Proclus in the archiepiscopal dignity in 447. | | | Flavian, an enemy to simony, answered resolutely that the revenues and treasure of the church were designed for other uses, namely, the honour of God and the relief Of his poor. |

| | Flavian was a faithful soldier of Christ, courageous defender and confessor of the Orthodox Faith. | | | Archmandrite Eutyches of Constantinople and Dioscorus, Patriarch of Alexandria, who spread the heretical teaching, that there were not two natures in Christ, Divine and Human, rather one nature, had as their ally in the imperial court the mediocre eunuch Chrysaphius. | | | Flavian and Plucheria were proclaimed as saints and the Orthodox Faith victoriously confirmed. |

| | Council of Chalcedon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | About two years after Cyril of Alexandria's death in 444, an aged monk from Constantinople named Eutyches began teaching a subtle variation on the traditional Christology in an attempt (so he said in a letter to Pope Leo I in 448) to stop a new outbreak of Nestorianism. | | | The papal legates escaped with a letter for the pope from Flavian, and in a second session, without papal representation, several more bishops were deposed, including Ibas of Edessa, Irenaeus of Tyre (a close personal friend of Nestorius), Domnus of Antioch, and Theodoret. | | | The situation continued to deteriorate, with the pope demanding the convocation of a new council and the emperor refusing to budge, all the while appointing bishops in agreement with Dioscorus. |

| | Flavian's intrepid refusal, on the ground of the impropriety of thus disposing of church the treasures, aroused considerable enmity against him. | | | Nothing is known of him before his elevation to the episcopate save that he was a presbyter and skeuophylax or sacristan, of the Church of Constantinople, and noted for the holiness of his life. | | | Pope Hilary had Flavian's death represented pictorially in a Roman church erected by him. |

| | That relation was disastrously described by Eutyches (378-451), archimandrite of a monastery outside Constantinople, in terms of a heresy that convulsed the Church in the East. | | | With the legates he sent to Flavian a long letter known as the "Tome of St. Leo." In this document he set forth the authentic Catholic faith: Jesus Christ is fully God, fully man, two natures perfectly united (not merged) in one Person. | | | The second (Constantinople, 381) taught that the Holy Spirit is fully God. |

| | Leo and Theodoret, Dioscorus and Eutyches |
| | His actions against Flavian and Eusebius can be explained as primarily motivated by his desire to defend the faith against Nestorianism to such a point that he came at least very close to abandoning Cyril's reconciliation of 433 with John of Antioch. | | | In any case both Flavian and Eusebius were finally justified in their actions against Eutyches by Dioscoros, his bishops and all Oriental Orthodox. | | | Failing to distinguish between the two Orthodox bishops and the Nestorian Theodoret Leo seems to have used the occasion to assert the authority of his see. |
