This session provides a historically grounded, scripture-focused critique of Augustine’s doctrines, highlighting their impact on church structure, theology, and Christian life, while advocating a return to apostolic faith and biblical authority.

- Constantine’s reforms and Augustine’s doctrines initiated a profound shift from apostolic Christianity to institutional religion.

- Augustine’s theology laid the groundwork for Roman Catholicism’s sacramental system and Calvinism’s predestination.

- Original sin, infant baptism, and purgatory are Augustinian constructs lacking clear biblical foundation.

- The biblical gospel calls for repentance, confession, and believer’s baptism, emphasizing free will and personal responsibility.

- The church’s entanglement with state power led to violent suppression of dissent and theological uniformity enforced by law.

This teaching critically examines the historical and theological impact of Augustine and Constantine on Christian doctrine, particularly focusing on salvation and its transformation from the early church to post-Constantinian theology. The speaker contends that Augustine’s theology has profoundly distorted biblical Christianity, influencing Western theology and practice negatively for over 1700 years.

- Salvation in early Christianity was a dynamic process involving grace and human obedience, with real consequences for sin and apostasy.

- Augustine’s doctrines introduced a fatalistic, deterministic view that removed human agency and justified coercion and persecution.

- Constantine’s political reforms institutionalized Christianity, merging it with state power, resulting in a hybrid system far removed from the biblical model.

- Modern practices like infant baptism and the sinner’s prayer often reflect Augustinian influences rather than apostolic teaching.

- True Christian faith requires a personal, Spirit-wrought conversion marked by conviction, repentance, and ongoing obedience, not mere ritual or nominal affiliation.

- The Christian’s kingdom is spiritual, not political or worldly; attempts to use state power to enforce faith contradict Jesus’ teachings.

- A call for repentance involves rejecting false doctrines and returning to the pure gospel and church practices of the early believers.

We must be warned against the enduring influence of Augustine’s doctrines and Constantine’s political reforms, which together have distorted biblical Christianity by removing human responsibility in salvation, blending the old and new covenants improperly, and legitimizing the use of political power to enforce faith through persecution. The teaching exhorts believers to return to the apostolic gospel, embrace true conversion and obedience, and reject the corrupt, institutionalized church system (Corpus Christianum) that dominates much of Christianity today.

- The doctrines of Augustine have deeply influenced and corrupted both Catholic and Protestant Christianity by introducing false teachings that dilute the gospel.

- The church must return to its New Testament roots: relational, small groups, focused on holiness, repentance, and discipleship rather than institutional power, rituals, or forced inclusion.

- Christians are urged to examine their doctrines critically, be wary of spiritual deception, and embrace a genuine, transformative faith that involves struggle, repentance, and co-crucifixion with Christ.

- The current church system is likened to Babylon, and believers are encouraged to step out of Babylon into genuine faith communities.

- There's urgency to this message in light of the falling away and spiritual deception prophesied in Scripture.
