    Extract from Augustine’s 'Retractations,' Book II. Chap. 67, On the Following Treatise, De Correptione et Gratia.

  • A Treatise on Rebuke and Grace
    St. Augustine / StAugustine / Peter Holmes
    I Wrote again to the same persons another treatise, which I entitled On Rebuke and Grace, because I had been told that someone there had said that no man ought to be rebuked for not doing God’s commandments, but that prayer only should be made on his behalf, that he may do them. This book begins on this wise, “I have read your letters, dearly beloved brother Valentine.” ...

  • A Treatise on the Gift of Perseverance
    St. Augustine / Peter Holmes
    In the first part of the book he proves that the perseverance by which a man perseveres in Christ to the end is God’s gift; for that it is a mockery to ask of God that which is not believed to be given by God. Moreover, that in the Lord’s prayer scarcely anything is asked for but perseverance, according to the exposition of the martyr Cyprian, by which exposition the enemies to...

  • On Marriage and Concupiscence
    St. Augustine / StAugustine / Peter Holmes
    “I Addressed two books to the Illustrious Count Valerius, upon hearing that the Pelagians had brought sundry vague charges upon us—how, for instance, we condemned marriage by maintaining Original Sin.

  • A Treatise on the Grace of Christ and on Original Sin
    St. Augustine / StAugustine / Peter Holmes
    “After the conviction and condemnation of the Pelagian heresy with its authors by the bishops of the Church of Rome, —first Innocent, and then Zosimus, —with the cooperation of letters of African councils, I wrote two books against them: one On the Grace of Christ, and the other On Original Sin.

  • A Treatise on Nature and Grace
    St. Augustine / Peter Holmes
    “At that time also there came into my hands a certain book of Pelagius’, in which he defends, with all the argumentative skill he could muster, the nature of man, in opposition to the grace of God whereby the unrighteous is justified and we become Christians. The treatise which contains my reply to him, and in which I defend grace, not indeed as in opposition to nature, but as ...

  • A Treatise on the Soul and its Origin
    St. Augustine / StAugustine / Peter Holmes
    “At that time one Vincentius discovered in the possession of a certain presbyter called Peter, in Mauritania Cæsariensis, a little work of mine, in a particular passage of which, touching the origin of souls in individual men, I had confessed that I knew not whether they are propagated from the primeval soul of the first man, and from that by parental descent, or whether they a...

  • A Treatise Concerning Man’s Perfection in Righteousness
    St. Augustine / StAugustine / Peter Holmes
    Augustin has made no mention of this treatise in his book of Retractations; for the reason, no doubt, that it belonged to the collection of the Epistles, for which he designed a separate statement of Retractations. In all the mss. this work begins with his usual epistolary salutation: “Augustin, to his holy brethren and fellow-bishops Eutropius and Paulus.” And yet, by general ...

  • A Treatise on Grace and Free Will
    St. Augustine / Peter Holmes
    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...

  • A Work on the Proceedings of Pelagius
    St. Augustine / Peter Holmes
    “About the same time, in the East (that is to say, in Palestinian Syria), Pelagius was summoned by certain catholic brethren before a tribunal of bishops, and was heard on his trial by fourteen prelates, in the absence of his accusers, who were unable to be present on the day of the synod. On his condemning the very dogmas which were read from the indictment against him, as ass...
