Augustine of Hippo, on John 14:18
Augustine of Hippo · A.D. 354–430
John 14:18 · Douay-Rheims
“I will not leave you orphans, I will come to you.”
On this verse:
“(Tract. lxxv. 5) He that hath them in mind, and keepeth them in life; he that hath them in words, and keepeth them in works; he that hath them by hearing, and keepeth them by doing; he that hath them by doing, and keepeth them by persevering, he it is that loveth Me. Love must be shewn by works, or it is a mere barren name.”
