Augustinian
Grace-emphasizing Christian order
Augustinian relates to Saint Augustine of Hippo (354–430 CE), one of Christianity's most influential theologians.
Augustinian theology emphasizes original sin, divine grace, and predestination.
The Augustinian order is a Catholic religious community following a rule attributed to Augustine: an Augustinian friar, Augustinian monasteries.
More broadly, Augustinian describes views shaped by his thought: an Augustinian understanding of human nature.
