First Clement (9597)
1 Clem. Pro. To those who are called and sanctified by the will of God through our Lord Jesus Christ. May grace and peace
from almighty God through Jesus Christ be yours in abundance.
1 Clem. 7:4. Let us fix our eyes on the blood of Christ and understand how precious it is to his Father, because, being poured
out for our salvation, it won for the whole world the grace of repentance.
1 Clem. 16:2. The majestic scepter of God, our Lord Christ Jesus, did not come with the pomp of arrogance or pride (though
he could have done so), but in humility, just as the Holy Spirit spoke concerning him.
1 Clem. 20:11-12. All these things the great Creator and Master of the universe ordered to exist in peace and harmony, thus
doing good to all things, but especially abundantly to us who have taken refuge in his compassionate mercies through
our Lord Jesus Christ, (12) to whom be the glory and the majesty for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Clem. 22:1. Now faith in Christ confirms all these things, for he himself through the Holy Spirit thus calls us:
1 Clem. 24:1. Let us consider, dear friends, how the Master continually points out to us the coming resurrection of which he
made the Lord Jesus Christ the firstfruit when he raised him from the dead.
1 Clem. 32:4. And so we, having been called through his will in Christ Jesus . . .
1 Clem. 36:2. Through him let us look steadily into the heights of heaven; through him we see as in a mirror his faultless and
transcendent face; through him the eyes of our hearts have been opened; through him our foolish and darkened mind
springs up into the light; through him the Master has willed that we should taste immortal knowledge, for "he, being the
radiance of his majesty, is as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent."
1 Clem. 36:4. But of his Son the Master spoke thus: "You are my Son; today I have begotten you."
1 Clem. 42:1. The apostles received the gospel for us from the Lord Jesus Christ; Jesus the Christ was sent forth from God.
(2) So then Christ is from God, and the apostles are from Christ. Both, therefore, came of the will of God in good order.
1 Clem. 46:6. Do we not have one God and one Christ and one Spirit of grace which was poured out upon us? And is there
not one calling in Christ?

Christ our Lord, to whom be the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Clem. 58:2. Accept our advice and you will have nothing to regret. For as God lives, and as the Lord Jesus Christ lives, and
the Holy Spirit (who are the faith and the hope of the elect), so surely will the one who with humility and constant
gentleness has kept without regret the ordinances and commandments given by God be enrolled and included among the
number of those who are saved through Jesus Christ, through whom is the glory to him for ever and ever. Amen.
1 Clem. 59:2. . . . that the Creator of the universe may keep intact the specified number of his elect throughout the whole
world, through his beloved servant Jesus Christ, through whom he called us from darkness to light, from ignorance to the
knowledge for the glory of his name.
1 Clem. 59:3. . . . the Creator and Guardian of every spirit, who multiplies the nations upon the earth, and from among all of
them have chosen those who love you through Jesus Christ, your beloved Servant, through whom you instructed us,
sanctified us, honored us.
1 Clem. 59:4. . . . "Let all the nations know that you are the only God," that Jesus Christ is your servant, and that "we are
your people and the sheep of your pasture."
1 Clem. 61:3. You, who alone are able to do these and even greater good things for us, we praise through the high priest and
guardian of our souls, Jesus Christ, through whom be the glory and the majesty to you both now and for all generations
