He believed that the grace of Christ was indispensable to human freedom, and he framed the concepts of original sin and just war.When the Western Roman Empire was starting to disintegrate, Augustine developed the concept of the Church as a spiritual City of God (in a book of the same name), distinct from the material Earthly City.
