DESCRIPTION
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Clement of Rome emphasizes the importance of yielding obedience to God's
will, seeking His mercy and loving-kindness, and turning away from
fruitless labors, strife, and envy that lead to death. He encourages
believers to focus on those who have faithfully served God, like Enoch
who was translated without experiencing death due to his righteousness,
and Noah who preached regeneration and saved animals through his
obedience to God.

CONTENT
------------------------------------------------------------------------

So let us yield obedience to His excellent and glorious will; and
imploring His mercy and loving-kindness, while we forsake all fruitless
labours, and strife, and envy, which leads to death, let us turn and
have recourse to His compassions. Let us steadfastly contemplate those
who have perfectly ministered to His excellent glory.

Let us take (for instance) Enoch, who, being found righteous in
obedience, was translated, and death was never known to happen to him?
Noah, being found faithful, preached regeneration to the world through
his ministry; and the Lord saved by him the animals which, with one
accord, entered into the ark.
