1Corinthians 12:2

Early Christian Commentary - (A.D. 100 - A.D. 325)

Anf-01 ix.vii.xii Pg 5
1 Cor. vi. 9–11.

He shows in the clearest manner through what things it is that man goes to destruction, if he has continued to live after the flesh; and then, on the other hand, [he points out] through what things he is saved. Now he says that the things which save are the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the Spirit of our God.


Anf-01 ix.vi.xxxviii Pg 18
1 Cor. vi. 11.

If then it were not in our power to do or not to do these things, what reason had the apostle, and much more the Lord Himself, to give us counsel to do some things, and to abstain from others? But because man is possessed of free will from the beginning, and God is possessed of free will, in whose likeness man was created, advice is always given to him to keep fast the good, which thing is done by means of obedience to God.


Anf-02 vi.iv.iii Pg 269.1


Anf-02 vi.iv.vii.xiv Pg 18.1


Anf-03 iv.xi.xxi Pg 12
1 Cor. vi. 11.

The statements, however, of holy Scripture will never be discordant with truth. A corrupt tree will never yield good fruit, unless the better nature be grafted into it; nor will a good tree produce evil fruit, except by the same process of cultivation. Stones also will become children of Abraham, if educated in Abraham’s faith; and a generation of vipers will bring forth the fruits of penitence, if they reject the poison of their malignant nature. This will be the power of the grace of God, more potent indeed than nature, exercising its sway over the faculty that underlies itself within us—even the freedom of our will, which is described as αὐτεξούσιος (of independent authority); and inasmuch as this faculty is itself also natural and mutable, in whatsoever direction it turns, it inclines of its own nature. Now, that there does exist within us naturally this independent authority (τὸ αὐτεξούσιον ), we have already shown in opposition both to Marcion1662

1662 See our Anti-Marcion, ii. 5–7.

and to Hermogenes.1663

1663 In his work against this man, entitled De Censu Animæ, not now extant.

If, then, the natural condition has to be submitted to a definition, it must be determined to be twofold—there being the category of the born and the unborn, the made and not-made. Now that which has received its constitution by being made or by being born, is by nature capable of being changed, for it can be both born again and re-made; whereas that which is not-made and unborn will remain for ever immoveable. Since, however, this state is suited to God alone, as the only Being who is unborn and not-made (and therefore immortal and unchangeable), it is absolutely certain that the nature of all other existences which are born and created is subject to modification and change; so that if the threefold state is to be ascribed to the soul, it must be supposed to arise from the mutability of its accidental circumstances, and not from the appointment of nature.


Anf-01 ix.iii.x Pg 7
Gal. iv. 8.

notwithstanding that they ascribe the first place in Deity to that God who was the Maker of this universe. But the latter maintain that He, [i.e., the Creator of this world,] is the fruit of a defect, and describe Him as being of an animal nature, and as not knowing that Power which is above Him, while He also exclaims, “I am God, and besides Me there is no other God.”3032

Anf-01 ix.iv.vii Pg 28
Gal. iv. 8, 9.

has made a separation between those that were not [gods] and Him who is God. And again, speaking of Antichrist, he says, “who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped.”3352

3352


Anf-03 v.iv.vi.iv Pg 24
Gal. iv. 8.

he censured the error of that physical or natural superstition which holds the elements to be god; but at the God of those elements he aimed not in this censure.5343

5343 Nec sic taxans.

He tells us himself clearly enough what he means by “elements,” even the rudiments of the law: “Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years”5344

5344


Anf-03 iv.ix.iv Pg 4
Comp. Gal. v. 1; iv. 8, 9.

Whence we (Christians) understand that we still more ought to observe a sabbath from all “servile work”1188

Anf-03 v.iv.vi.iv Pg 9
So, instead of pursuing the contents of chap. iii., he proceeds to such of chap. iv. as Marcion reserved.

“But when the fulness of time was come, God sent forth His Son”5329

5329


Anf-02 vi.iv.vii.ix Pg 5.2


Anf-03 v.iv.vi.xvii Pg 40
Eph. ii. 11, 12.

Now, without what God and without what Christ were these Gentiles? Surely, without Him to whom the commonwealth5986

5986 Conversatio: rather, “intercourse with Israel.”

of Israel belonged, and the covenants and the promise. “But now in Christ,” says he, “ye who were sometimes far off are made nigh by His blood.”5987

Now, without what God and without what Christ were these Gentiles? Surely, without Him to whom the commonwealth5986

as the Creator thereof. Since therefore he said, that the Gentiles were without God, whilst their god was the devil, not the Creator, it is clear that he must be understood to be the lord of this world, whom the Gentiles received as their god—not the Creator, of whom they were in ignorance. But how does it happen, that “the treasure which we have in these earthen vessels of ours”5728

5728


Anf-02 vi.ii.ix Pg 6.1


Anf-03 iv.ix.i Pg 20
Comp. 1 Thess. i. 9, 10.

For thus has the “less”—that is, posterior—people overcome the “greater people,” while it attains the grace of divine favour, from which Israel has been divorced.


Anf-03 v.viii.xxiv Pg 3
1 Thess. i. 9, 10.

And again:  “For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord God, Jesus Christ, at His coming?”7447
