The Military Saints, Warrior Saints and Soldier Saints are patron saints, martyrs and other saints associated with the military. They were originally composed of the Early Christians who were soldiers in the Roman army during the persecution of Christians, especially the Diocletianic Persecution of AD 303–313. Most of the Early Christian military saints were soldiers of the Roman Empire who had become Christian and, after refusing to participate in Imperial cult rituals of loyalty to the Roman Emperor, were subjected to corporal punishment including torture and martyrdom.

  • The Military Saints, Warrior Saints and Soldier Saints are patron saints, martyrs and other saints associated with the military.

Most of the Early Christian military saints were soldiers of the Roman Empire who had become Christian and, after refusing to participate in Imperial cult rituals of loyalty to the Roman Emperor, were subjected to corporal punishment including torture and martyrdom. Veneration of these saints, most notably of Saint George, was reinforced in the Latin Church during the time of the Crusades. The title of "champion of Christ" (athleta Christi) was originally used for these saints, but in the late medieval period also conferred on contemporary rulers by the Pope. Since the Middle Ages, more saints have been added for various military-related patronages. (en)

  • Os santos militares ou santos guerreiros, também chamados de santos soldados, da Igreja primitiva são santos de muita importância na história do Cristianismo. As perseguições aos cristãos sob Diocleciano e outros imperadores romanos geralmente forneceram o contexto para a hagiografia dos santos militares, que compartilham de um tema comum: um soldado do Império Romano que se tornou cristão descobre que a sua nova religião conflita com as práticas religiosas das forças militares romanas. Ao se recusar a participar dos rituais de lealdade ao imperador (veja culto imperial), o santo dava causa para castigos corporais que podiam escalar até a tortura — que milagrosamente podia não afetá-lo — e mesmo assim ele não nega a sua fé e acaba martirizado. Um outro epíteto comum para este tipo de santo era "atleta de Cristo". (pt)
