Our venerable father James the Ascetic (also known as Jacob the Ascetic or the Righteous - feastday January 28), a 4th century saint, left all worldly things to settle for fifteen years in a cave near a village called Porphyrianos. There he led an ascetic's life. Once there was a prostitute who, moved by lecherous men, came to see the saint. She jumped on him shamelessly and was inciting him to sin. But the saint reminded her of the future punishment of eternal fire, making her repent and come to Christ.
