| Background | |||||||||||||||||||
| Born the eldest son of Flavius Josephus Valentinus (St. Valentine) and grandson to Flavius Josephus, otherwise known as St. Luke the co-founder of the counterfeit movement later called "Boethusianism". | |||||||||||||||||||
| When he was born, his father it is claimed he had already established his famous Catechetical School of Alexandria, the first gnostic school to which the best students in the world flocked to be formerly trained in understanding the mysteries of the Nazarenes and the true Gospels written by Hesus (Jesus) and the Apostles. (The role, history and work of this school later changed complete in christian history). | |||||||||||||||||||
| In 115, a massive earthquake devestated most of the great cities in Syria and Lebanon, utterly destroying Antioch and Apamea. The Boethusian refugees did then migrate to Cyrene, Cyprus and Corinth. | |||||||||||||||||||
| High Priest Lucius (Lukuas) of Cyrene, a fanatical Boethusian and the eldest son of Josephus (St. Luke) by his first marriage did then declare himself upon this "sign of God" as the New Messiah and promptly amassed a frenzied militia to start killing every last man, woman and child of Greek origin on account of his hatred of his half-brothers and the second marriage of his father and repudiation of Boethusianism. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Young Clemens was taken with his family to Cyprus to escape the murderous rampage of their relatives, then next to Greece and finally the safety of Rome. | |||||||||||||||||||
| When Clemens was of age, he obtained the permission of his father to return to Alexandria and help re-establish the Catechetical School, becoming its second head. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Holding the same family brilliance of his grandfather, Clemens fell out with his father towards his final years as he tried to find ways to synthesize a unity between the Boethusian philosophy of Jesus and the Gnostic gospels. When his father died in 153, Clemens devoted his time to this task. | |||||||||||||||||||
The trilogy into which Clement's principal remains are connected by their purpose and mode of treatment is composed of: the Protrepticus ("Exhortation to the Greeks") the Paedagogus ("Instructor") the Stromata ("Miscellanies") |
|||||||||||||||||||
| By 195, Clemens influence by the Boethusian message had increasingly removed much ot the core theology of Gnosticism and replaced it with a new model. Clemens seemed to have also adopted many of the prejudices embedded in Boethusianism (Orthodox Christianity). | |||||||||||||||||||
| When Victor became the first non-Emperor to assume the role of Pontifex Maximus under the support of Emperor Septimus Severus, Clemens was emphatic in his rejection of Latin being the official language of universal pagan worship, on account of all the gospels having been originally written in Greek by the Sadducee High Priests and all the Gnostic Gospels also originally being in Greek. | |||||||||||||||||||
| It is possible he is the true author of letters describing the persecutions by Severus that were requested by Pontifex Maximus Victor by 197/198 following his claimed authority being rejected. In any event, the reference to the word "christian", a word not invented until Constantine indicates a substantial degree of editing. | |||||||||||||||||||
| Clemens was captured by Roman soldiers and executed on Imperial Orders around 198. His son, Origen and pupils escaping with an unknown number of his texts. | |||||||||||||||||||
