St. Methodius was a bishop who was martyred in the 4th century. Following are some interesting excerpts from his prophecy:
"A time will come when the enemies of Christ will boast:"We have subjected the earth and all its inhabitants, and the Christians cannot escape our hands." Then a Roman Emperor will arise in great fury against them... Drawing his sword, he will fall upon the foes of Christianity and crush them. Then peace will reign on earth, and priests will be relieved of all their anxieties.
