A proposito di questo titolo
The Enchiridion, also known as the Manual or Handbook of Augustine of Hippo, is captivatingly subtitled Faith, Hope, and Love. This concise treatise on Christian piety was crafted in response to a request from a figure named Laurentis, shortly after the passing of Saint Jerome in 420. Designed as a guide for Christian instruction or catechesis, the work is thoughtfully organized around the three essential graces required for true worship Faith, Hope, and Love. Augustine delves into the Apostles Creed under Faith, illustrating its role in teaching doctrine and countering heresies. He then offers insight into the Lords Prayer as a model of prayer under Hope. The final section explores the profound nature of Christian love. (Summary from Wikipedia)Copyright Religious Texts and Commentary Catechesi ed evangelismo Cristianesimo Spiritualità
  • Ten Homilies on the First Epistle of John-Saint Augustine of Hippo

    Ten Homilies on the First Epistle of John by Saint Augustine of Hippo.

    As regards the plan of the Epistle, it has been often asserted till lately that it was supposed to be but fragmentary, a series of aphorisms. Augustine, however, without formally announcing a plan as discovered by him in the Epistle, not only frequently affirms in his exposition that charity or love is the Apostle’s main theme, but so conducts the discussion, gathering his arguments and illustrations around this central thought, as to render it evident that in his view the purpose and plan of the Apostle is to set forth love in its essence and its scope, and that he intends to make this thought dominant in every part.

  • On the Spirit and the Letter-Saint Augustine of Hippo
    Nov 7 2026
    On the Spirit and the Letter by Saint Augustine of Hippo.

    The Tribune Marcellinus having received the books ''On the Merit of Sins," wrote to St. Augustine that he was surprised at what he had there said, that man could be without sin if he would, with the help of God: and that, nevertheless, none in this world had been, was, or would be for the time to come, so perfect. "How," said he, ''can you say that a thing is possible, of which there is no example?" To answer this question, St. Augustine wrote the book, "On the Spirit and the Letter," where he explains the passage of the Apostle, "The letter killeth, but the Spirit giveth life." There, he warmly disputes against the enemies of grace: first, shewing by several examples that there are things possible which have never actually come to pass: and afterwards, explaining wherein consists the succour we receive from God to do well.

  • On the Good of Marriage-Saint Augustine of Hippo
    Nov 6 2026
    On the Good of Marriage by Saint Augustine of Hippo.

    This treatise, and the following, were written against somewhat that still remained of the heresy of Jovinian. S. Aug. mentions this error in b. ii. c. 23, de Nuptiis et Conc. Jovinianus, he says, who a few years since tried to found a new heresy, said that the Catholics favored the Manichæans, because in opposition to him they preferred holy Virginity to Marriage. And in his book on Heresies, c. 82. That heresy took its rise from one Jovinianus, a Monk, in our own time, when we were yet young. And he adds that it was soon overborne and extinguished, say about A.D. 390, having been condemned first at Rome, then at Milan. There are letters of Pope Siricius on the subject to the Church of Milan, and the answer sent him by the Synod of Milan, at which St. Ambrose presided.
