T-Shirt Description:
Civitas Dei (City of God) Long Sleeve Tee Augustine’s magnum opus, City of God, provided the impetus for the Civitas Dei shirt. The tower of Babel image was inspired by Pieter Bruegel’s 1563 painting, and typifies man's wayward attempts to glorify the “city of man.” American conservative William F. Buckley, Jr. warned against this sentiment with his 1950s catchphrase, "Don't Immanentize the Eschaton!" Buckley’s erudite slogan cautions against attempts to create the end times (the eschaton) on earth (immanent). The Civitas Dei shirt is both a warning and a reminder: a warning against attempts to build a Heaven on Earth, and a reminder that our true citizenship is in Heaven with Christ. (Phil 3:20)
