{"product_id":"2940011890895","title":"St. Augustine: On the Proceedings of Pelagius","description":"Written about the commencement of the year, A.D. 417.\u003cbr\u003ebefore a tribunal of bishops, and was heard on his trial by fourteen prelates, in the absence of his accusers, who were unable to be present on the day of the synod. On his condemning the very dogmas which were read from the indictment against him, as assailing the grace of Christ, they pronounced him to be a Catholic. But when the Acts of this synod found their way into our hands, I wrote a treatise on them, to prevent the idea gaining ground that, because he had been in a manner acquitted, his opinions also were approved by the bishops; or that the accused could by any chance have escaped condemnation at their hands, unless he had condemned the opinions charged against him. This treatise of mine begins with these words: 'After there came into my hands.'\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe several heads of error which were alleged against Pelagius at the Synod in Palestine, with his answers to each charge, are minutely discussed. Augustineshows that, although Pelagius was acquitted by the synod, there still clave to him the suspicion of heresy; and that the acquittal of the accused by the synod was so contrived, that the heresy itself with which he was charged was unhesitatingly condemned.","brand":"St Augustine Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47080907309296,"sku":"2940011890895","price":2.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940011890895_p0.jpg?v=1763551003","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940011890895","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
