Patristic Quote of the Day

For they had experienced him [St. Paul, that is] as a most vigorous preacher of grace and as one who taught the exact opposite of their view, that one is not justified by these but by the grace of Jesus Christ and that all the ordinances of the law were foreshadowings meant to announce him. That is why they stirred up persecution and hatred against him.—St. Augustine, Letter 82.
