7 I, 6, 1 | who have attained to the perfect knowledge of God, and been
8 I, 6, 2 | faith, while they have not perfect knowledge. We of the Church,
9 I, 6, 3 | to pass, that the "most perfect" among them addict themselves
10 I, 6, 4 | themselves, and claim to be perfect, and the elect seed. For
11 I, 6, 4 | called "the spiritual and perfect" such a course of conduct
12 I, 8, 1 | beyond all others they have a perfect knowledge. They gather their
13 I, 8, 4 | wisdom among them that are perfect." They declare also that
14 I, 10, 2 | and hands them down, with perfect harmony, as if she possessed
15 I, 11, 5 | that they may appear more perfect than the perfect, and more
16 I, 11, 5 | appear more perfect than the perfect, and more knowing than the

30 II, 4, 2 | compassion, being formed. perfect by those that were perfect.
31 II, 4, 2 | perfect by those that were perfect. For if He pitied the work
32 II, 9, 2 | who declare themselves "perfect," and as being possessed
33 II, 16, 4 | conceiving himself more perfect than all [others], he will
34 II, 17, 7 | since he is Logos, must be perfect and impassible, and that
35 II, 17, 7 | with himself, should be perfect and impassible, and should
36 II, 17, 9 | degeneracy. For [they hold] that perfect Nous, previously begotten
37 II, 17, 9 | previously begotten by the perfect Bythus, was not capable

42 II, 17, 11 | AEons find rest and attain perfect knowledge through learning [
43 II, 18, 3 | Lord renders His disciples perfect by their seeking after and
44 II, 18, 3 | above, has rendered them perfect, by the fact that He has
45 II, 18, 3 | that they themselves are perfect, by the fact that they maintain
46 II, 18, 3 | the AEons [have been made perfect] through means of this,
47 II, 18, 6 | into [the nature of] the perfect Father, and to have a desire

57 II, 22, 4 | men, that He might be a perfect Master for all, not merely
58 II, 26, 1 | that they themselves are perfect, for this reason that they
59 II, 26, 1 | imagine he is better and more perfect than He who made and fashioned
60 II, 28 | XXVIII. PERFECT KNOWLEDGE CANNOT BE ATTAINED
61 II, 28, 2 | the Scriptures are indeed perfect, since they were spoken
62 II, 28, 3 | that this world was formed perfect by God, receiving a beginning
63 II, 28, 8 | this world, should leave perfect knowledge, and such questions [

66 II, 33, 4 | instrument, owing to the want of perfect pliability in the matter
67 III, 1, 1 | preached before they possessed "perfect knowledge," as some do even
68 III, 1, 1 | all [His gifts], and had perfect knowledge: they departed
69 III, 2, 1 | wisdom among those that are perfect, but not the wisdom of this
70 III, 3, 1 | habit of imparting to "the perfect" apart and privily from
71 III, 3, 1 | these men should be very perfect and blameless in all things,
72 III, 5, 1 | an imperfect being as a perfect one, an animal one as a
73 III, 10, 1 | knowledge of any other more perfect God and Lord besides Him,
74 III, 10, 1 | spirit and power of Elias, a perfect people for the Lord.~2.
75 III, 12, 3 | Him, hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence
76 III, 12, 5 | disciples of the Lord, the truly perfect, who, after the assumption
77 III, 12, 5 | acknowledge His Son's advent perfect towards God.~6.

107 IV, 38, 1 | God have exhibited man as perfect from beginning?" let him
108 IV, 38, 1 | do they come short of the perfect. Because, as these things
109 IV, 38, 1 | to, and unexercised in, perfect discipline. For as it certainly
110 IV, 38, 1 | Himself to have made man perfect from the first, but man
