On Faith And The Creed And Concerning Faith Of Things Not Seen

On Faith And The Creed And Concerning Faith Of Things Not Seen is a book written by St. Augustine, one of the most influential theologians in the history of Christianity. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part discussing the nature of faith and the importance of the creed in guiding and strengthening one's faith. Augustine explores the concept of faith as a gift from God, and emphasizes the need for believers to have a deep and unwavering trust in God's promises.The second part of the book focuses on the importance of faith in things that are not visible or tangible to the human senses. Augustine argues that faith is not blind belief, but rather a rational response to the evidence of God's existence and the truth of his word. He discusses the role of reason in understanding and interpreting the mysteries of faith, and emphasizes the need for believers to cultivate a deep and abiding trust in God's wisdom and goodness.Throughout the book, Augustine draws on his extensive knowledge of scripture and the teachings of the early Christian church to provide a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the nature of faith and its importance in the life of the believer. His writing is clear, concise, and deeply rooted in a profound love for God and a desire to help others deepen their own faith and understanding of the Christian message.THIS 52 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: St. Augustin on the Holy Trinity, Doctrinal Treatises and Moral Treatises: Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers of the Christian Church V3, by St. Augustin .
