1 Clement 33

Letter to the Corinthians

What shall we do then, brethren? Shall we cease from doing good and abandon love? By no means let the Lord allow this to happen to us.

2But let us hasten with diligence and good will to fulfill every good work. For the Creator and Lord of all things himself rejoices in his works.

3For by his supreme power he established the heavens and by his incomprehensible wisdom he adorned them.

4With man he acted differently. In his own holy hands he formed him according to the image of his likeness.
