description The self-definition of Augustine as a preacher of the word, not of words (Sermo 71) is related to his refusal of a purely rhetorical attitude, but also to his interpretation of the role of Scripture in the Christian life. He emphasizes the possibility that everyone has access to the Scripture, especially in the church assemblies, but also individually: the cultural limits are not as determining as in the pagan tradition. The biblical text is sometimes recognized as difficult, but the obscure passages require a right attitude, adequate to such a task. The Sermons assert the coherence of Scripture both among several passages and of the two Testaments. Despite the dangers of a partial interpretation, a personal experienced awareness of the value of Scripture can lead to overcoming doubts about both the present and the future.
