    The source 'catholic faith' is described as 'The Christian religious system that Augustine is gradually drawn towards'. Candidate 2, 'rule of faith', is described as 'A foundational set of beliefs or principles within Christianity that the Narrator now stands in, having been converted to God'. Both refer to the specific set of Christian beliefs Augustine adopts. The 'rule of faith' is a common theological term for the core tenets of a religious system, which in this context, is the Catholic faith.
