The Writings Against the Manichaeans and Against the Donatists

Más información sobre el libro

The narrative centers on Augustine's confrontation with the Donatists, a group that demanded a perfect church and rejected teachings from those they deemed traitors. Their belief in being the sole true church led them to refuse baptism and instruction from others. Augustine responds by rigorously analyzing their arguments, aiming to expose their flaws and defend the broader church's role in administering sacraments and guiding believers. This part of the series highlights the theological debates of early Christianity and Augustine's significant role in addressing heretical views.
