It seems that the response was written around 396 or 397 AD, which would more firmly place it at the very beginning of St. Augustine's episcopacy, which he took on between 395 AD to 396 AD. This is a very important document to analyze I believe, but it isn't the only one that we can read to find St. Augustine's early thoughts on grace and law and sin and predestination. For that we can look to his letters and earlier commentaries on the works of St. Paul.Steven Rhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12601858164034778521noreply@blogger.com
