"The Word of god shall be thy pilot and the Holy Spirit shall bring thee to anchor in the harbors of heaven. Then thou shalt have the vision of my God, and shalt be initiated in those holy mysteries, and shalt taste the joys that are hidden away in heaven, preserved for me, 'which neither ear hath heard nor have they entered into the heart' of any man."
"O truly sacred mysteries! O pure light! In the blaze of the torches I have a vision of heaven and of God. I become holy by initiation. The Lord reveals the mysteries; He marks the worshiper with His seal, gives light to guide his way, and commends him, when he has believed, to the Father's care, where he is guarded for ages to come. These are the revels of my mysteries! If thou wilt, be thyself also initiated, and thou shalt dance with angels around the unbegotten and imperishable and only true god, the Word of god joining with us in our hymn of praise."
- Clement of Alexandria (c. 150 - 215), Exhortation to the Greeks (Protreptikos Pros Hellenas), 12:118, 120
