Summary

Portrait of Philip Schaff Philip Schaff Ante-Nicene Fathers Vol. VIII, Pseudo-Clementine Literature… (1885)

For it is not God the Creator of heaven and earth that in former times punished sins, since now, when He is blasphemed in the highest degree, He would inflict the severest punishment. [2] But, on the contrary, He is long-suffering, calls to repentance, having the arrows which end in the destruction of the impious laid up in His treasures, which He will discharge like living animals when He shall sit down to give judgment to those that are His. [3] Wherefore let us fear the just God, whose shape the body of man bears for honour.
