“Either all things proceed from one intelligent source and come together as in one body, and the part ought not to find fault with what is done for the benefit of the whole; or there are only atoms, and nothing else than a mixture and dispersion.

“Now, justification in this life is given to us according to these three things: first by the laver of regeneration by which all sins are forgiven; then, by a struggle with the faults from whose guilt we have been absolved; the third, when our prayer is heard, in which we say: 'Forgive us our debts,' because however bravely we fight against our faults, we are men; but the grace of God so aids as we fight in this corruptible body that there is reason for His hearing us as we ask forgiveness.” MenFirstsHas BeensReasonBodyLife IsFightingThreeAsksGivenPrayerSinStruggleGraceHeardThirdsForgivingGuiltFaultsHearingDebtAidsThis LifeJustificationForgivenThree ThingsGrace Of GodOur PrayersRegenerationAsking For Forgiveness Author:Saint Augustine

“Do you feel that you have lost your way in life? Then God Himself will show you your way. Are you utterly helpless, worn out, body and soul? Then God's eternal love is ready and willing to help you up, and revive you. Are you wearied with doubts and terrors? Then God's eternal light is ready to show you your way; God's eternal peace ready to give you peace. Do you feel yourself full of sins and faults? Then take heart; for God's unchangeable will is, to take away those sins, and purge you from those faults.” WayGivingFeelsHeartSoulGodHelpingShowsBodyLightLostSinLove IsDoubtWillingReadyEternalFaultsTerrorWornHelplessReviveWorn OutEternal LoveUnchangeableEternal PeaceWay In LifeEternal Light Book:The Good News of God: Sermons Source: The Good News of God: Sermons
