A very influential and great philosopher and theologian of Late Antiquity, Saint Augustine of Hippo is the most important of the Latin Church Fathers. His works, especially his Confessions (a self-biography) and City of God, helped distinguish the Church in Western Europe from the Church as it developed elsewhere. Protestant reformers Calvin and Luther, would draw their theology from this man. It would be very wise to find out what this man really taught.
