CAPPADOCIA AND THE UNDERGROUD CITIES
unity and the great Persecution 

Discover the power of a united church!

It is 303AD and the Roman Empire has suddenly proclaimed war on the Christians. Believers are forced to worship the emperor or face torture and death.  

​

Daniel and the Christians of Cappadocia (Central Turkey) create an underground city in order to protect themselves. Confronted by attacks by the Romans, food shortages and countless challenges, Christians battle with one another as they fight for survival.  

Can believers work together amidst intolerable circumstances?  

​

The story accurately depicts the miraculous transformation of the Roman Empire, giving hope in the light of current world events.  

​

THE FACTS

 

In 1963, a man was working on a closet in his home in Cappadocia.  He accidentally broke through a wall and found a passageway that went deep underground.  Archeologists were brought in and they discovered an intricate system of stairways that went 21 levels down.  They found a large chapel, a well, stables for animals, sleeping quarters and everything needed for survival.  Each level was protected by a huge stone door. They also discovered a five mile long tunnel that led them to another city of equal size. Some archeologists estimate that these cities can occupy over 40,000 people each. They have since discovered over 200 underground cities in Cappadocia.  

 

Before the rise of Constantine the Great (311 AD), persecution was rampant within the Roman Empire. Apparently, the Christians used these underground cities to protect themselves from torture, enslavement and death at the hands of the Romans. In the 7th century, they were also used for protection against invading Arab forces.

​

John 17:20-21

“I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word; 21 that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they also may be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.

​

John 17:22-23

“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; 23 I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me."

 

1 Corinthians 12:12

Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ.  We were baptized by one Holy Spirit into one body.  It didn’t matter whether we were Jews or Greeks, slaves or free people.  We were all given the same Spirit to drink.” 

 

Ephesians 4:2

“Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.  Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.  There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all.” 

 

Romans 15:5

“May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had, so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.  

​

Psalm 133:1-3

“How good and pleasant it is 

When God’s people live together in unity!

It is like precious oil poured on the head, 

Running down on Aaron’s beard, 

Down on the collar of his robe. 

It is as the dew of Harmon

Were falling on Mount Zion. 

For there the Lord bestows his blessing, 

Even life forevermore”

 

1 Corinthians 1:10

“I appeal to you, brothers, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought.” 

 

2 Corinthians 13:11

“Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.”  

 

Matthew 5:24

“Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the altar.  First go and be reconciled to them; then come and offer your gift.”

 

John 10:16

“I have other sheep that are not of this sheep pen.  I must bring them also.  They will listen to my voice.  There will be one flock and one shepherd.”
