Lake’s Apostolic Fathers in English LXV

2 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you and with all, in every place, who have been called by God through him, through whom be to him glory, honour, power and greatness and eternal dominion, from eternity to eternity. Amen.

II Clement 5.5

1 Wherefore, brethren, let us forsake our sojourning in this world, and do the will of him who called us, and let us not fear to go forth from this world, 2 for the Lord said, “Ye shall be as lambs in the midst of wolves,” 3 and Peter answered and said to him, “If then the wolves tear the lambs?” 4 Jesus said to Peter, “Let the lambs have no fear of the wolves after their death; and do ye have no fear of those that slay you, and can do nothing more to you, but fear him who after your death hath power over body and soul, to cast them into the flames of hell.” 5 And be well assured, brethren, that our sojourning in this world in the flesh is a little thing and lasts a short time, but the promise of Christ is great and wonderful, and brings us rest, in the kingdom which is to come and in everlasting life. 6 What then shall we do to attain these things save lead a holy and righteous life, and regard the things of this world as not our own, and not desire them? 7 For by desiring to obtain these things we fall from the way of righteousness.
