To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Is it unjust ? Far from it : shall not God do what He will with His own undeserved favour ? It is nothing but gratuitous mercy, sovereignly distributed, and fore- seen and provided for from all eternity by Him who has selected us in His Son.
Augustine's doctrine of the means of grace, i. E. , of the channels and circumstances of the conference of grace upon men, is the meeting point of two very dissimilar streams of thought — his doctrine of grace and his doc- trine of the Church. Profound thin...ker as he was, within whose active mind was born an incredible mul- titude of the richest conceptions, he was not primarily a systematiser, and these divergent streams of thought rather conditioned each the purity of the other's devel- opment at this point than were thoroughly harmonized. ' 1 On Rebuke and Grace, 39 ; compare 14.
2 On the Gift of Perseverance, 29 ; Against Two Letters of the Pelagians, ii. 9 sq.
8 Says Harnack (Vogmengesehichte, in. 90): "In conflict with Manicheanism and Donatism, Augustine acquired a doctrine of free- dom, of the Church and of the means of grace which has little in com- mon with his experience of sin and grace, and is in open strife with the theological development of this experience (doctrine of predesti- national grace).
