Description
The First Epistle of Clement is a letter addressed to the Christians in the city of Corinth. Its author may be Clement I, the Bishop of Rome. The letter responds to events in Corinth, where the congregation had deposed some of the elders. The author called on the congregation to restore the elders to their position and to obey their superiors. He said that the Apostles had appointed the church leadership and directed them on perpetuating the ministry; therefore, changing the church elders is a sin.
