According to his contemporary, Hieronymus, Augustine re-established an ancient faith. , he helped formulate the doctrine of original sin and made a significant contribution to the development of the theory of simple war. When the Western Roman Empire began to disintegrate, Augustine represented the Church as the spiritual City of God, as opposed to the material earthly city. His thoughts had a profound impact on the medieval worldview. The segment of the Church, which adhered to the concept of the Trinity, as defined by the Nicae Cathedral and the Cathedral of Constantinople, was closely identified with Augustine on the Trinity. Augustine recognized catholic in the Catholic Church, the Eastern Orthodox Church and the Anglican Community. He is also a Catholic doctor of the Church and patron of the Aug. His memorial is celebrated on August 28, the day of his death. Augustine is the patron saint of brewers, printers, theologians, as well as a number of cities and dioceses. Many Protestants, especially Calvinists and Lutherans, consider him one of the theological fathers of the Protestant Reformation because of his teachings on salvation and divine grace. Protestant reformers in general, and Martin Luther in particular, held Augustine as a prize among the early fathers of the Church. Luther was a member of the Order of the Order of the August Heremits from 1505 to 1521. In the East, his teachings are more controversial and were particularly attacked by John Romanids. But other theologians and figures of the Eastern Orthodox Church have shown considerable approval of his works, mainly By Georgi Florowski. The most controversial doctrine associated with it, the philioc, was rejected by the Orthodox Church. Other controversial teachings include his views on original sin, doctrine of grace, and predestination. However, although it is considered erroneous on some counts, it is still considered holy and has influenced some of the eastern church's fathers, most notably Gregory Palamas. In the Orthodox Church, his holiday is celebrated on June 15. Historian Diarmaid McCulloch wrote: Augustine's influence on Western Christian thought cannot be overestimated; only his favorite example, Paul Tarsus, was more influential, and Westerners tended to see Paul through Augustine's eyes. Background of life Augustine Hippo (/ɔːˈɡʌstɪn/, /əˈɡʌstɪn/, or /ˈɔːɡʌstɪn/; 36 Latin: Aurelius Augustine Hipponensis; November 13, 354 -28 August 430 AD), also known as St. Augustine or St. Austen, is known to various cogomes in many denominations of the Christian world, including Blessed Augustine and Dr. Grace (Latin: Dr. Gratiae). Hippo Regius, where Augustine was a bishop, was in present-day Annabe, Algeria. The childhood and education of Saint Augustine, taken to The School of Saint Monica. Niccolo di Pietro 1413-15 Augustine was born in 354 AD in the municipality of Tagaste (now Suk Ahras, Algeria) in the Roman province of Numindia. His mother, Monica or Monnica, was a devout Christian; his father Patricia was a pagan who converted to Christianity on his deathbed. He had a brother named Navii and a sister whose name was lost but usually remembered as Perpetua. Scientists generally agree that Augustine and his family were Berbers, an ethnic group indigenous to North Africa, but were heavily romanticized, speaking only in Latin at home as matter pride and dignity. In his writings Augustine leaves some information about the consciousness of his African heritage. For example, he calls Puglia the most famous of us Africans, Pontician as our countryman because he's African, and Faust Milewski as an African gentleman. Augustine's surname, Aurelius, suggests that his father's ancestors were freed from the Aurelia genes and obtained full Roman citizenship by decree of Caracalla in 212. Augustine's family was Roman, legally, for at least a century when he was born. It is assumed that his mother, Monica, was of Berber descent, based on her name, but since his family was honest, the upper class of citizens known as honorary men, Augustine's first language was probably Latin. At the age of 11, Augustine was sent to school in Madaurus (now M'Dauruch), a small Numidi town about 31 km south of Tagaste. There he is familiar with Latin literature, as well as pagan beliefs and practices. His first understanding of the nature of sin came when he and several friends stole fruit they didn't want from a nearby garden. He talks about it in his autobiography Confession. He remembers stealing fruit not because he was hungry, but because it was forbidden. His very nature, he said, was imperfect. It was a foul and I loved it. I loved my mistake - not what I made a mistake for, but the mistake itself. From this case he came to the conclusion that man is naturally prone to sin and needs the grace of Christ. At the age of 17, thanks to the generosity of his fellow Romanian, Augustine went to Carthage to continue his education in rhetoric, although it was above the financial means of his family. Despite his mother's good warnings, Augustine lived a hedonistic lifestyle for some time, connecting with young people who bragged about their sexual exploits. The need to get them adopted forced inexperienced boys like Augustine to seek or invent stories about sexual experiences. It was when he was a student in Carthage that he read the dialogue of Cicero Hortensius (now lost), which he described as leaving a lasting impression, enkindling in his heart a
