Seven rules is an unusually theological work coming out of the Donatist church in North Africa. This is not a list of monastic rules, which would have been common for the period. Nor is it a list of moral precepts that should be obeyed by the faith. Instead this is a mystical treatise dealing with the nature of Christ's body, the presence of the devil in the world, and the utility of the scriptures. Among Ticonius' seven primary theses, he voices his believe in a textually literal reading of the Book of Revelation of St. John, and a cyclical understanding of the happenings therein.
