22. What did Augustine, the father of this theocratical or church-and-state theory, teach concerning it?

Answer

"Who doubts but what it is better to be led to God by instruction than by fear of punishment or affliction?
But because the former, who will be guided only by instruction, are better, the others are still not to be
neglected. . . . Many, like bad servants, must often be reclaimed to their Master by the rod of temporal
suffering, ere they can attain to this highest stage of religious development. "-Id., pages 214, 215.
