1 Clement 48

Letter to the Corinthians

Let us therefore remove this quickly and prostrate ourselves before the Lord, and weep, supplicating him that, becoming merciful, he may be reconciled with us and restore us to our former condition of brotherly love.

2For this is the gate of righteousness that opens to life, as it is written: Open to me the gates of righteousness, that entering through them I may praise the Lord.

3This is the gate of the Lord; the righteous shall enter through it.

4There being, therefore, many gates open, that in righteousness is the one that is in Christ.
