For memory is related to past time, hope to future.\r\nWe believe that what is past did, and that what is future will take\r\nplace. And, on the other hand, we love, persuaded by faith that the\r\npast was as it was, and by hope expecting the future. For in everything\r\nlove attends the Gnostic, who knows one God. “And, behold, all things\r\nwhich He created were very good.”<a class=\"fnanchor pginternal\" href=\"#Footnote_115\" id=\"FNanchor_115\">[115]</a> He both knows and admires.\r\nGodliness adds length of life; and the fear of the Lord adds days.

But\r\nit is not as I fear and hate a wild beast (since fear is twofold) that\r\nI fear the father, whom I fear and love at once. Again, fearing lest\r\nI be punished, I love myself in assuming fear. He who fears to offend\r\nhis father, loves himself. Blessed then is he who is found possessed of\r\nfaith, being, as he is, composed of love and fear. And faith is power\r\nin order to salvation, and strength to eternal life. Again, prophecy\r\nis foreknowledge; and knowledge the understanding of prophecy; being\r\nthe knowledge of those things known before by the Lord who reveals all\r\nthings.</p>","headings":["THE WRITINGS OF CLEMENT OF ALEXANDRIA.","BOOK II.","CHAPTER XII.
