In 393, the Christian Theodosius defeated the pagan Arbogastiz, cementing Christianity as the dominant faith in the Roman World and proving it as the true faith. Less than 20 years later, Rome was sacked by Alaric and the Goths for the first time in more than 800 years.
In the aftermath, St. Augustine wrote his magnum opus, City of God, showing that the point of faith was not to win rewards on earth, but to secure entry to the heavenly city of God.
