Maandishi
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Maandishi pekee ambayo kwa hakika ni ya kwake ni waraka aliowaandikia Wakristo wa Korintho ili kuimarisha umoja na amani kati yao na kudhibiti uasi wao dhidi ya viongozi halali[3].
Kwa ajili hiyo Klementi anahesabiwa kuwa wa kwanza kati ya Mababu wa Kanisa waliofahamu Mitume wa Yesu[4]. Inawezekana ndiye aliyetajwa na Mtume Paulo katika Waraka kwa Wafilipi (4:3).
Sala yake
[hariri | hariri chanzo]Wewe umefunua macho ya mioyo yetu, ili tukujue wewe Mungu pekee, uliye juu sana katika mbingu za juu, mtakatifu unayekaa kati ya watakatifu, ambaye unanyenyekeza ufidhuli wao wenye kiburi, unabatilisha mashauri ya mataifa, unawainua juu wanyonge na kuwashusha wanaojikweza, wewe ambaye unatajirisha na kufukarisha, unaua na kuhuisha, ambaye peke yako unafadhili roho na ni Mungu pekee wa kila mwenye mwili, unatazama vilindi, unachunguza matendo ya wanadamu, unawasaidia waliopo hatarini na ni mkombozi wa waliokata tamaa, ni muumbaji na mtunzaji wa roho zote, unazidisha mataifa duniani, ambaye kati ya wote umewachagua wanaokupenda, kwa njia ya Yesu Kristo Mwanao mpendwa, ambaye kwa njia yake umetulea, umetutakasa na kutuvika heshima.
Tunakusihi, Bwana, uwe kwetu msaidizi na tegemeo. Uwakomboe walio taabuni kati yetu, uwahurumie wanyonge, uwainue walioanguka, ujidhihirishe kwa wahitaji, uwaponye wagonjwa, uwarudishe waliojitenga na taifa lako, uwashibishe wenye njaa, uwafungue wafungwa wetu, uwaimarishe walio dhaifu, uwatulize walio duni.
Mataifa yote wapate kujua ya kuwa ndiwe Mungu, wewe peke yako, na ya kuwa Yesu Kristo ni Mwanao nasi tu wako wako na kondoo wa malisho yako.
