LUX VERITAS

Apocrypha · Chapter 10 of 20

2 Clement 10

Ancient Sermon

I tell you: He who is faithful in very little is also faithful in much.

2This means: keep the flesh pure and the seal unstained, that we may receive life.

3And let none of you say that this flesh is not judged nor rises again.

4Know: In what were you saved? In what did you recover your sight, if not while in this flesh?

5Therefore we must keep the flesh as the temple of God.

6For just as you were called in the flesh, you will also be judged in the flesh.

7Just as Christ, the Lord who saved us, being first spirit, became flesh and thus called us.

8So also we shall receive the reward in this flesh.
