St. Augustine - City of God and City of ManSarbjit Rindi
St. Augustine wrote "The City of God" in the 5th century to defend Christianity against critics who blamed it for Rome's fall. In the book, he distinguishes between the earthly City of Man, focused on earthly desires, and the heavenly City of God, focused on faith in God. He argues that true peace and justice can only be found in the City of God, as earthly cities are inherently sinful. The two cities will remain entangled on earth until God's final judgment separates them for eternity.
