Clement of Alexandria: God Discarnate and God Incarnate

Eric Osborn

La Trobe University, Victoria, Australia

There is tension today between faith in God and the centrality of Jesus. Clement describes an apophatic `God discarnate' and a kataphatic `God incarnate'. The first ends in the `magnitude of Christ' which brings knowledge of God. The second is the only saviour, to be known through love of neighbour.

Key Words: apophatic theology • kataphatic theology • incarnation • love
