We then\r\nalone, who first have touched the confines of life, are already\r\nperfect; and we already live who are separated from death. Salvation,\r\naccordingly, is the following of Christ: “For that which is in Him is\r\nlife.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_207\" id=\"FNanchor_207\">[207]</a> “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my words,\r\nand believeth on Him that sent me, hath eternal life, and cometh not\r\ninto condemnation, but hath passed from death to life.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_208\" id=\"FNanchor_208\">[208]</a> Thus\r\nbelieving alone, and regeneration, is perfection in life; for God is\r\nnever weak. For as His will is work, and this<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_209\" id=\"FNanchor_209\">[209]</a> is named the world;\r\nso also His counsel is the salvation of men, and this has been called\r\nthe church. He knows, therefore, whom He has called, and whom He has\r\nsaved; and at one and the same time He called and saved them. “For ye\r\nare,” says the apostle, “taught of God.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_210\" id=\"FNanchor_210\">[210]</a> It is not then allowable\r\nto think of what is taught by Him as imperfect; and what<span class=\"pagenum\" id=\"Page_133\">[133]</span> is learned\r\nfrom Him is the eternal salvation of the eternal Saviour, to whom be\r\nthanks for ever and ever. Amen. And he who is only regenerated—as the\r\nname necessarily indicates—and is enlightened, is delivered forthwith\r\nfrom darkness, and on the instant receives the light.</p>","headings":["THE WRITINGS OF CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA.","THE INSTRUCTOR.","BOOK I.","CHAPTER VI.
