Matthew 5:3-12a (NIV): Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven.

THE DESCRIPTION OF SAINT ANDREW Feast Day: November 30

"Love is acceptance. When you love someone... you take them into your heart, and that is surely why it hurts so much when we lose someone we love, because we lose a part of ourselves."

Andrew was born in Bethsaida in Galilee, and was the son of Jonah and the brother of Simon Peter. He is referred to in the Orthodox tradition as the First-Called (Protokletos). Both he and his brother Peter were fishermen by trade, hence the tradition that Jesus called them to be his disciples by saying that he will make them 'fishers of men'. At the beginning of Jesus' public life, they were said to have occupied the same house at Capernaum.

In contrast, the Gospel of John states that Andrew was a disciple of John the Baptist, whose testimony first led him, and another unnamed disciple of John the Baptist, to follow Jesus. Andrew at once recognized Jesus as the Messiah, and hastened to introduce him to his brother.

Subsequently, in the gospels, Andrew is referred to as being present on some important occasions as one of the disciples more closely attached to Jesus. Andrew told Jesus about the boy with the loaves and fishes, and when Philip wanted to tell Jesus about certain Greeks seeking Him, he told Andrew first. He is also present at the Lord's Last Supper. and was one of the four disciples who came to Jesus on the Mount of Olives to ask about the signs of Jesus' return at the 'end of the age'.

After receiving the Holy Spirit through Pentecost, Andrew preached the Gospel in many lands. The Chronicle of Nestor adds that he preached along the Black Sea and the Dnieper river as far as Kiev, and from there he travelled to Novgorod. Hence, he became a patron saint of Ukraine, Romania and Russia. According to Hippolytus of Rome, Andrew preached in Thrace, and his presence in Byzantium is mentioned in the apocryphal Acts of Andrew.

Andrew is said to have been martyred by crucifixion at the city of Patras in Achaea, in the year 60 AD. Early texts, such as the Acts of Andrew known to Gregory of Tours, describe Andrew as bound, not nailed, to a Latin cross of the kind on which Jesus is said to have been crucified; yet a tradition developed that Andrew had been crucified on a cross of the form called saltire (x-shaped cross or crux decussata), now commonly known as a 'Saint Andrew's Cross' — supposedly at his own request, as he deemed himself unworthy to be crucified on the same type of cross as Jesus had been. The iconography of the martyrdom of Andrew — showing him bound to an X-shaped cross — does not appear to have been standardized until the later Middle Ages.

Andrew is the patron saint of several countries and cities, including Barbados, Romania, Russia, Scotland, Ukraine, Sarzana, Pienza and Amalfi in Italy,  Esgueira in Portugal, Luqa in Malta, Parañaque and Cainta (in Rizal Province) in the Philippines and Patras in Greece. He was also the patron saint of Prussia and of the Order of the Golden Fleece. He is considered the founder and the first bishop of the Church of Byzantium and is consequently the patron saint of the Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople. The flag of Scotland feature Saint Andrew's saltire cross. The saltire is also the flag of Tenerife, the former flag of Galicia and the Russian Navy Ensign. The Confederate flag also features a saltire commonly referred to as a St Andrew's cross, although its designer, William Porcher Miles, said he changed it from an upright cross to a saltire so that it would not be a religious symbol but merely a heraldic device. The Alabama state flag also shows that device.

The Last Supper, but Judas makes it weird.

Weirder than betraying God, that is.

___

JOKE-OGRAPHY: Jesus originally just says that one of His apostles will betray him.  In this cartoon, He specifies that the one who's invading His personal space is the betrayer.  John and James (to Jesus's right and left) both recoil at the thought and start arguing with the others about who could betray Jesus.  Meanwhile, Judas coyly says it couldn't be him.  Thomas presses "X" to doubt that.

Day 135- I mean, day 3 of posting a 'The Chosen' meme untill season 4 comes out.

Thomas: It takes a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone. But it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

Andrew: Simon forgot me at the market once.
