How did Augustine combine faith and reason?
I understood that true understanding is achieved through a process where faith illuminates reason, and reason, in turn, clarifies faith. 'Believe to understand' was my motto. I sought to demonstrate that the truths discovered by reason often found their ultimate fulfillment and coherence within the framework of Christian revelation. Scripture itself provides a foundation upon which reason can build, leading to deeper insight.
