Late have I loved the treasures of wisdom long set down in books, and here they are read again for all who seek. The Augustine Library is a place for the attentive soul: where words are not hurried, but heard; where truth is sought through confession, reflection, and the longing for God. Enter, then, and listen - not merely with the ear of the body, but with the ear of the heart.Public domain Christianity Spirituality

    In which the eternal happiness of the city of God is contemplated, affirming the resurrection of the body and the incorruptible nature of those redeemed, whilst reflecting on the immutable will of God that brings forth good even from evil. And thus, with reason and prophecy aligned, the faithful bear witness to the divine truth that the resurrection and ascension of Christ’s flesh have convinced the world, transcending the old fables of mortal founders made gods by earthly love.
