1 Clement 50

Letter to the Corinthians

You see, beloved, how great and wonderful is love, and its perfection cannot be described.

2Who is worthy to be found in it, except those whom God shall judge worthy?

3Let us pray, therefore, and ask of his mercy, that we may be found in love, without human factions, blameless.

4All the generations from Adam to this day have passed away; but those who were perfected in love by the grace of God have a place among the pious, who shall be manifested at the visitation of the kingdom of Christ.
