Hello,
What was St. Augustine's view on this very controversial topic?
Basic definitions to work by from Wikipedia:
"Supralapsarianism (also called antelapsarianism, pre-lapsarian or prelapsarian) is the view that God's decrees of election and reprobation logically preceded the decree of the fall while infralapsarianism (also called postlapsarianism and sublapsarianism) asserts that God's decrees of election and reprobation logically succeeded the decree of the fall."
If his view is neither infra- nor supra-, please explain his view.
Please support your answer with some citations from his works.
Thank you,
Sebastian
