Book Synopsis The Quotable Augustine: Distinctively Catholic Elements in His Theology by : Dave Armstrong
Download or read book The Quotable Augustine: Distinctively Catholic Elements in His Theology written by Dave Armstrong and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-09-01 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protestants (especially Reformed Protestants, or Calvinists) often assert that St. Augustine's views were closer to theirs than to the present-day Catholic Church. My aim is to systematically document St. Augustine's advocacy of positions that historic Protestantism has expressly rejected, and (conversely) detail his opposition to some doctrines or beliefs that it has (generally speaking) espoused. Quotations are drawn from 44 separate works of St. Augustine, arranged under 157 topics, and also arranged chronologically within topics, insofar as that can be determined. This helps to clarify any development in Augustine's views. Editorial input is kept to an absolute minimum: confined to an occasional bracketed clarification (usually a contextual matter or reference) or briefly stated fact considered to be indispensable in understanding some aspect of the quotation. I'm delighted to pass along to readers a ""capsulized version"" of St. Augustine's wonderful and eloquent theological writing.

Book Synopsis Catholic Church Fathers: Patristic and Scholarly Proofs by : Dave Armstrong
Download or read book Catholic Church Fathers: Patristic and Scholarly Proofs written by Dave Armstrong and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-08-28 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protestants and Catholics both claim that the early Church heritage of theology and broad consensus of the Church fathers favors their own view. Protestants, from the beginning, claimed to be "reformers" of the Catholic Church; that is, they felt themselves to be hearkening back to the more pure doctrines of the early Church and the Church fathers, rather than overturning historic Catholic doctrine. I shall contend in this book, by means of massive documentation, that the "historical case" for Catholicism becomes stronger as the accumulation of patristic evidence piles up. Catholics need not fear patristic data any more than they need fear the Bible. The discussion of what the Church fathers believed must be undertaken by means of historical fact, and it can be determined (fairly conclusively in most cases, I submit) what a Church father believed about various Christian doctrines. This volume surveys the beliefs of the Church fathers, particularly with regard to Catholic "distinctives."

Book Synopsis Augustine and Literature by : Robert Peter Kennedy
Download or read book Augustine and Literature written by Robert Peter Kennedy and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The influence of Christianity on literature has been great throughout history, as has been the influence of the great Christian, Augustine. Augustine and Literature considers the influence of Augustine on the theory and practice of an academic discipline of which he himself was not a practitioner-literature, especially poetry and fiction. The essays in this volume explore the many influences of Augustine on literature, most obviously in terms of themes and symbols, but also more pervasively perhaps in proving that literature strives for meaning through and beyond the fictional or metaphorical surface. The authors discussed in these essays, from Dante and Milton to O'Connor and Faulkner, all demonstrate a common concern that literature must be attentive to the highest things and the deepest journeys of the soul. Together these essays offer a compelling argument that literature and Augustine do belong together in the common task of guiding the soul toward the truth it desires.
Book Synopsis Death, Judgement, Heaven, and Hell by : Pecknold
Download or read book Death, Judgement, Heaven, and Hell written by Pecknold and published by Catholic University of America Press. This book was released on 2019-02-06 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, canon lawyer and writer Edward Condon compiles a book full of wisdom and compelling insights. More than anything, the Fathers warn us that our life is short, and the reckoning for how we have lived it eternal. The urgency of the Church’s message, brought to life in the sayings of the Fathers, comes to remind us of our true calling and inheritance in baptism, and of the richness of the heavenly reward, which is not so much the fruit of our efforts on Earth but the fulfillment of God’s promise of love to us. The terror of hell is not the threat of the dictator, but a dire warning of the true scope of our freedom as children of God.
