Ad Monimum is a theological work by Saint Fulgentius of Ruspe (c. 462–527), written in response to questions posed by a certain Monimus concerning difficult points of Christian doctrine. Composed in three books, the treatise addresses the relation between divine predestination and human sin, the meaning of the scriptural expression concerning the “double-edged sword,” and the proper interpretation of several passages involving the Trinity and the divine nature. The work is particularly important for understanding the Augustinian theological tradition in the early sixth-century Latin West. Fulgentius carefully distinguishes God’s predestination of the good from human responsibility for evil, while defending divine justice, grace, and Trinitarian orthodoxy. Ad Monimum thus provides a concise but substantial example of his method: close engagement with Scripture, precise theological distinctions, and a strong dependence on the thought of Saint Augustine.
De Fide ad Petrum (also known as De Regula Verae Fidei) by St. Fulgentius of Ruspe (Fulgentius Ruspensis), a concise and precise manual of the Catholic faith originally written for a lay pilgrim journeying to Jerusalem
De Remissione Peccatorum ad Euthymium is a two-book treatise by Saint Fulgentius of Ruspe on the forgiveness of sins. Addressed to Euthymius, it examines whether sins may be remitted after death and discusses related questions concerning repentance, baptism, divine judgment, and salvation, arguing throughout from Scripture and the Catholic faith.
