Product Description

City of God is a philosophical and theological treatise written by St. Augustine of Hippo, one of the most influential figures in Christian thought. The book explores the nature of God, the human condition, and the relationship between the earthly city and the heavenly city.Augustine argues that there are two distinct cities in the world: the City of God and the City of Man. The City of God is the spiritual realm, where God reigns supreme and those who seek to live according to his will reside. The City of Man, on the other hand, is the earthly realm, where humans live according to their own desires and passions.Throughout the book, Augustine explores the nature of sin and evil, arguing that they are a result of humanity's separation from God. He also discusses the role of the church in society and the importance of living a virtuous life.City of God is a seminal work in Christian theology and philosophy, and has had a profound impact on Western thought. It is a dense and challenging read, but one that rewards careful study and contemplation.THIS 526 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: St. Augustin's City of God and Christian Doctrine: Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers of the Christian Church V2, by St. Augustin .
