“Tú eres siempre el mismo (Sal 101,28); y todo lo que está por venir en el más hondo futuro y lo que ya pasó, hasta en la más remota distancia, Hoy lo harás, Hoy lo hiciste. ¿Y qué más da si alguno no lo entiende? Alégrese cuando pregunta: «¿qué es esto?». Porque más le vale encontrarte sin haber resuelto tus enigmas, que resolverlos y no encontrarte.”

Aurelius Augustinus - more commonly "St. Augustine of Hippo," or simply "Augustine" - was a philosopher and theologian, and one of the most important figures in the development of Western Christianity. He framed the concepts of original sin and just war. Augustine was one of the most prolific Latin authors in terms of surviving works, and the list of his works consists of more than a hundred separate titles.
Augustine took the view that the Biblical text should not be interpreted literally if it contradicts what we know from science and our God-given reason. Many Protestants, especially Calvinists, consider him to be one of the theological fathers of Reformation teaching on salvation and divine grace.
