The City of God’s Holiness

The City of God’s Holiness

Twenty-two exceptional books in City of God from this fifth century mystic, St. Augustine, is a highly respected classic! Written over fifteen hundred years ago, defending the charge that Christianity was causing Rome’s decline, Augustine’s vivid imagery of two contrasting cities, the earthly and heavenly, shows how everyone will necessarily spend eternity in either one! He was keenly involved in the practical concerns of the churches he served, teaching how paganism bore within itself the seeds of its own destruction. Augustine beautifully bridges the ancient and medieval worlds. Simply awesome!
