St. Theophilus of Adana, also known as Theophilus the Penitent, was a sixth-century cleric who, according to legend, made a deal with the devil in order to gain an ecclesial title. His story is the inspiration for the Faust legend. His feastday is celebrated on February 4.
The Greek name Theophilus is mentioned only twice: in the prologues of Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles, where the author dedicates the books to Theophilus.he name 'Theophilus' means 'Loved by God' in the Greek language. Some point to strong evidence that the author of Luke's Gospel relied on material from the works of the Jewish historian, Josephus, in order to provide a semblance of history to his own works.
