The small essay “On the charity and alms” of the Grand Holy Father of the Western Church of the III century, the priestly man of Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage (210-258), was written about 254 years old, after the tragic events of the persecution of Christians and the epidemics of the plague, which also raised the Carthaginian church in the Latin. Africa. Holy Cyprian calls on Christians to manifest his faith in God with deeds of mercy for the suffering and the help of the Church, once again proving the correctness of the famous words of the Holy Apostle Jacob: Faith without deeds is dead (James 2, 20) The Christian in baptism is called not just for faith, but for the faithful faith, expressed in good deeds. In addition, the deeds of mercy are a faithful means of depressing sins committed after baptism, and attracting the mercy of God to the repentant sinner. Holy Cyprian abundantly accompanies his reasoning with biblical examples and evidence of the saving of alms and good deeds in accordance with the right faith
