One of Augustine's most famous works, this book tells of the fall of the Roman Empire and the rise of the holy and righteous City of God from the ashes.

Boyce commented on this book in this way: "This volume is published rather as a practical text book, for the study of the system of doctrine taught in the Word of God, than as a contribution to theological science."

In this last and final volume of this series, Renan argues that the Roman emperor's acceptance of Stoic philosophy had great influence on the Christian church as he pushed these beliefs onto others in his empire.

This work had a large hand in shaping modern Biblical criticism.

Although the work denies the divinity of Christ, this documents role in shaping how we work with the Bible is significant.

The Donatists, started to refuse to be baptised or taught by anyone that they felt was a traitor to the faith since they were the only true church that was allowed to administer sacraments and teach the ways of God to the world. Augustine quickly fought back against this group bringing all their arguments forward to be thought through and condemned by one of the greatest thinkers and theologians of the early church.

Before converting to Christianity, Augustine was at one time a member of a group called the Manichaeans and this collection of works are his attempt to combat the growing threat that this religion caused to the rise and growth of the Christian church. The Manichaeans were a dualistic society that focused on the goodness of the spirit and the evil of the material. While basing their belief structure of Mesopotamian Gnosticism it is hard to say for certain that they were Gnostic themselves. Augustine shows sound arguments to counter the beliefs he reveals in this collection of writings even going so far as to have a verbal parley back and forth with a leading member of the religious movement Fortunatus.
