Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Both by nature and by grace, Augustin was formed to be the champion of truth in this controversy. Of a naturally philosophical temperament, he saw into the springs of life with a vividness of mental perception to which most men are strangers; and his own experiences in his long life of resistance to, and then of yielding to, the drawings of God’s grace, gave him a clear apprehension of the great evangelic principle that God seeks men, not men God, such as no sophistry could cloud. However much his philosophy or theology might undergo change in other particulars, there was one conviction too deeply imprinted upon his heart ever to fade or alter,—the conviction of the ineffableness of God’s grace. This book comprises St. Augustine’s writings and thoughts regarding the Anti-Pelagian dispute.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where traditional Christianity has always affirmed that sin can only be atoned by the sacrifice of Christ, the theory that the human will is able to earn salvation of its own accord was the basis of Pelagian thought. Augustine in this series of works fought vehemently against such ways of thinking because he wanted to make people realize that Christ is the one and only way to find true salvation.

Download or read book Nicene and Post Nicene Fathers First Series Volume V St Augustine Anti Pelagian Writings written by Philip Schaff and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2007-05-01 with total page 641 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Council of Nicaea in 325 AD marked the beginning of a new era in Christianity. For the first time, doctrines were organized into a single creed. The Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers did most of their writing during and after this important event in Church history. Unlike the previous era of Christian writing, the Nicene and Post-Nicene era is dominated by a few very important and prolific writers. In Volume V of the 14-volume collected writings of the Nicenes and Post-Nicenes (first published between 1886 and 1889), readers will discover Saint Augustines rebuke of Pelagianism. This doctrine undermined Augustines beliefs because it claimed that original sin did not exist. Since there was no original sin, humans were saved or lost based solely on their own will. This further meant that Jesus, while a great teacher and model human being, did not die to save humanity, negating a large portion of Christian doctrine. Augustine believed that salvation was available only by the grace of God working in conjunction with mans decision to live a good life. Spiritual seekers and students of history will find this work a thorough defense of Catholic theology."

Book excerpt: The Anti-Pelagian Works by St. Augustine is an essential collection of theological treatises that delve into the core doctrines of Christian grace, original sin, and human nature. This comprehensive volume includes some of Augustine's most significant writings: On Merits and the Forgiveness of Sins, and on Infant Baptism; On the Spirit and the Letter; On Nature and Grace; On Man's Perfection in Righteousness; On the Proceedings of Pelagius; On the Grace of Christ, and on Original Sin; On Marriage and Concupiscence; On the Soul and its Origin; On Rebuke and Grace; Against Two Letters of the Pelagians; On Grace and Free Will; and On the Predestination of the Saints and the Gift of Perseverance.In these works, Augustine systematically refutes the teachings of Pelagius, emphasizing the necessity of divine grace for salvation and the inherent sinfulness of humanity. His profound arguments laid the groundwork for much of Western Christian thought, particularly regarding the doctrines of original sin and predestination. Augustine's clear and compelling prose guides readers through complex theological debates, providing insight into the early Church's struggles to define orthodox beliefs.This collection is indispensable for theologians, scholars, and anyone interested in the development of Christian doctrine. Augustine's Anti-Pelagian writings offer a profound understanding of the nature of human will, the importance of grace, and the enduring questions of free will and predestination. Through these texts, readers can engage with the theological legacy of one of Christianity's greatest thinkers, whose influence continues to shape the faith today.

Book excerpt: Extract from Augustine's Retractions (Book II, Chapter 42): At that time also there came into my hands a certain book of Pelagius', in which he defends, with all the argumentative skill he could muster, the nature of man, in opposition to the grace of God whereby the unrighteous is justified and we become Christians. The treatise which contains my reply to him, and in which I defend grace, not indeed as in opposition to nature, but as that which liberates and controls nature, I have entitled On Nature and Grace. In this work sundry short passages, which were quoted by Pelagius as the words of the Roman bishop and martyr, Xystus, were vindicated by myself as if they really were the words of this Sixtus. For this I thought them at the time; but I afterwards discovered, that Sextus the heathen philosopher, and not Xystus the Christian bishop, was their author. This treatise of mine begins with the words: 'The book which you sent me.'"
