Tertullian of Carthage

AD 220

When also he (in a later passage) enjoins us "to cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of flesh and blood". This (thread of discourse) also you spin out, O apostle, when at the very moment you yourself are offering your hand to so huge a whirlpool of impurities; nay, you super add yet further, 'Having therefore this promise, beloved, cleanse we ourselves out from every defilement of flesh and spirit, perfecting chastity in God's fear.'"
