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
  • On Grace And Free Will-Saint Augustine of Hippo
    Nov 10 2026
    On Grace And Free Will by Saint Augustine of Hippo.

    There are some persons who suppose that the freedom of the will is denied whenever God's grace is maintained, and who on their side defend their liberty of will so peremptorily as to deny the grace of God. This grace, as they assert, is bestowed according to our own merits. It is in consequence of their opinions that I wrote the book entitled On Grace and Free Will. This work I addressed to the monks of Adrumetum, in whose monastry first arose the controversy on that subject, and that in such a manner that some of them were obliged to consult me thereon. The work begins with these words: "With reference to those persons who so preach the liberty of the human will."

  • On Adulterous Marriages-Saint Augustine of Hippo
    Nov 9 2026
    On Adulterous Marriages by Saint Augustine of Hippo.

    One named Pollentius having written to him upon the question of separation in case of adultery, engaged him to write the books "On Adulterous Marriages". Pollentius maintained that the wife who separated from her husband, upon account of adultery on his side, might marry again; and what St. Paul says to the contrary he interpreted of her who marries again for any other reason. St. Augustine maintains that this prohibition regards her who has left her husband for the cause of adultery. Pollentius maintained also, that married persons who were believers, could not leave the unbelieving party; and St. Augustine shews that St. Paul allows, though he does not advise it. We see at the beginning of the second book, that the eagerness with which St. Augustine's works were demanded, caused them to be published by those who lived with him, sometimes even without his knowledge.

  • Ten Homilies on the First Epistle of John-Saint Augustine of Hippo
    Nov 8 2026
    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.
