Two men in the late fourth and early fifth centuries have influenced the church's thinking on God's grace for centuries. Pelagius was a British ascetic who gained popularity among the Roman elites. He taught that man, out of his libertarian free will, can do good works pleasing to God under his own power. He furthermore claimed that grace was little more than helpful information and good examples, and that predestination was unbiblical. His opponent, Augustine, disagreed with all of the above points: he taught that even the elect are constrained by original sin and a sin nature to do evil until God saves them out of his own good pleasure by grace alone. This sermon outlines a history of these two men and repudiates the Pelagian heresy.
