Those, therefore,\r\nwho are consecrated to God must never live mortally (θνητῶς). “Nor,”\r\nas Paul says, “is it meet to make the members of Christ the members\r\nof an harlot; nor must the temple of God be made the temple of base\r\naffections.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_582\" id=\"FNanchor_582\">[582]</a> Remember the four and twenty thousand that were\r\nrejected for fornication. But the experiences of those who have\r\ncommitted fornication, as I have already said, are types which correct\r\nour lusts. Moreover, the Pædagogue warns us most distinctly: “Go not\r\nafter thy lusts, and abstain from thine appetites;<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_583\" id=\"FNanchor_583\">[583]</a> for wine and\r\nwomen will remove the wise; and he that cleaves to harlots will become\r\nmore daring. Corruption and the worm shall inherit him, and he shall\r\nbe held up as public example to greater shame.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_584\" id=\"FNanchor_584\">[584]</a> And again—for he\r\nwearies not of doing good—“He who averts his eyes from pleasure crowns\r\nhis life.”</p>","headings":["THE WRITINGS OF CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA.","THE INSTRUCTOR.","BOOK II.","CHAPTER X.
