And this latter\r\nconstitutes the art of censure. Now censure is a mark of good-will, not\r\nof ill-will. For both he who is a friend and he who is not, reproach;\r\nbut the enemy does so in scorn, the friend in kindness. It is not,\r\nthen, from hatred that the Lord chides men; for He Himself suffered for\r\nus, whom He might have destroyed for our faults. For the Instructor\r\nalso, in virtue of His being good, with consummate art glides into\r\ncensure by rebuke; rousing the sluggishness of the mind by His sharp\r\nwords as by a scourge. Again<span class=\"pagenum\" id=\"Page_158\">[158]</span> in turn He endeavours to exhort the same\r\npersons. For those who are not induced by praise are spurred on by\r\ncensure; and those whom censure calls not forth to salvation, being as\r\ndead, are by denunciation roused to the truth. “For the stripes and\r\ncorrection of wisdom are in all time.” “For teaching a fool is gluing\r\na potsherd; and sharpening to sense a hopeless blockhead is bringing\r\nearth to sensation.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_293\" id=\"FNanchor_293\">[293]</a> Wherefore He adds plainly, “rousing the\r\nsleeper from deep sleep,” which of all things else is likest death.</p>","headings":["THE WRITINGS OF CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA.","THE INSTRUCTOR.","BOOK I.","CHAPTER VIII.
