Kirkkoisä Augustinuksen Tunnustukset
E-text prepared by Juha Kiuru and Tapio Riikonen
"Kirkkoisä Augustinuksen Tunnustukset" by Bishop of Hippo Saint Augustine is a philosophical and theological work written in the late 4th century. This significant text is a profound exploration of Augustine's personal struggles with faith, sin, and redemption, reflecting on his journey toward a deeper understanding of God and himself. The narrative is largely centered on Augustine's experiences, thoughts, and feelings as he grapples with his sinful nature and seeks divine truth. The opening portion of the text sets the stage for Augustine's introspective journey, commencing with his reflections on God and the nature of existence. He expresses a deep yearning for understanding, acknowledging his restless heart that finds peace only in God. Augustine recounts his childhood and youthful escapades, candidly discussing his sins and the challenges of comprehending divine grace amidst temporal desires. The tone is confessional and contemplative, illustrating his struggle with identity, morality, and the search for truth as he seeks solace in his relationship with the divine, making it clear that the forthcoming chapters will delve into his transformation and spiritual awakening.
