The purpose of this work is to consider childlike spirit in the work Paedagogus by Clement of Alexandria. In the first part some basic information on Clement’s life and his bibliography are introduced. Detailed research of Clement’s Paedagogus and depiction of Christ as the Instructor, which are thematised in the first paragraph, are crucial features for understanding the work as a whole. In the second part of the paper Christ is depicted as a child. God reveals Himself through Jesus as a child, the Son of God. Through Christ’s christening we become the children of God. Jesus Christ as the Son of God is the one that invites humans to conversion, and that conversion means a son-and-father relationship with God. In the third part of the paper, which is the focal point of this work, there is some word about the children of God, specifically, how to be a God’s child. Being a child of God in Christ is discussed in the first paragraph of the third part. We are all children of God in Jesus Christ, his firstborn. Christian upbringing means inheriting Christ and growing in his fullness. In Jesus Christ, the Son of God, we are also God’s children, sons of the Son. In the fourth part sanctity of God’s children is discussed. Fourth, children’s piety. Clement also talks about obedience og God’s children towards Logos. We also discussed children’s piety. Clement’s view on the gift of piety is explained in this paragraph. The Holy Spirit repeatedly confirms this joyous belief within us. Through this gift we accomplish great closeness to God, and we speak to him as His children. We also talked about “food of God’s children”, and how Clement perceives it: milk for spiritual babies, solid food for spiritually mature, and bread for everybody. Matter of God’s children’s behaviour is also touched upon here. Clement writes about different kinds of intemperance and sins, while also giving instructions on how to behave in particular situations. In the end, important traits of childlike spirit according to Clement of Alexandria are accentuated which concludes this paper.
