Why “Identifying the True God” Is a Major, If Not Most Important, Factor in Salvation or Conversion

Do We See Evidence of Determinism, Like in Reformed Theology, Previous to Augustine?

Pre-Augustinian Patristic writers prior to Augustine (d. 430 AD) overwhelmingly affirmed human free will and actively refuted philosophical or theological determinism as being incompatible with Christian teaching.  Pre-Augustine, determinism associated with Gnosticism, Stoicism, or Manichaeism.  It did not arise from biblical exegesis.  It is exceptionally difficult, if not impossible, to find quotations in historical Christian […]
