Uncovering the Heated Debate Over Augustine & Pelagian Theology: Here's What You Need to Know!

Описание: 1 John‬ 3‬:9‬ “No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in them; they cannot go on sinning, because they have been born of God.”‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

1 John 2:3 We know that we have come to know him if we keep his commands. 4 Whoever says, “I know him,” but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person.

1 John gives definitive commandments, which seem to imply that Christians are not supposed to sin. This leads to the question "is it possible for Christians not to sin?" In order to understand this theological debate, we frame our discussion within the framework of the fifth-century controversy between Pelagius and Augustine. We will consider the five points of Pelagius:

1. The Morality of Free Will
2. Universal Grace
3. Individual Responsibility
4. Principle of Influence
5. Synergistic Missiology

The Five Points of Augustine:
1. Pulverized Will
2. Particular salvific Grace
3. Corporate Responsibility
4. Nature is immutable
5. Monergism
