BAPTISMAL REGENERATION IS INVISIBLE. BEDE: “What is born of the flesh is flesh, and what is born of the Spirit is Spirit.” The nature of the Spirit is invisible, that of the flesh, visible. Thus generation according to the flesh occurs visibly, with visible growth—one born of the flesh grows with the passage of time. Generation according to the Spirit, by contrast, takes place completely invisibly. We see one who is baptized descend into the font, be immersed in the water and come out again, but we do not in any way see what effect the bath of regeneration has had. Only the piety of the faithful knows that he descends into the water a sinner but comes out purified; he descends a child of death but comes out a child of the resurrection; he descends a child of transgression but comes out a child of reconciliation; he descends a child of wrath but comes out a child of mercy; he descends a child of the devil but comes out a child of God. Only Mother Church, who generates him, knows this, but to the eyes of the foolish it seems that he comes out of the font just as he went in, and the whole thing is just a game. Consequently, at the end, seeing the glory of the saints, groaning in torment they will say, “Here are the ones whom we once derided and who were the target of our insults. How is it that they are numbered among the children of God?” And the apostle John says, “Beloved, now we are the children of God, and it has not yet been revealed what we will be.” In fact, what is born of the Spirit is Spirit, because the one who is regenerated by water and the Spirit is invisibly changed into a new person, and from being carnal he becomes spiritual. And he is rightly called not only spiritual but even spirit, because as the essence of the spirit is invisible to our senses, likewise one who is renewed by the grace of God, in a way invisible to our eyes, becomes spiritual and a child of God, though he seems to all to be visibly flesh and a child of human beings. HOMILIES ON THE GOSPELS 2.18.

Что же касается продолжительности жизни праведника и неправедника, то ен нельзя поставлять в числе дет. Часто праведник умирает очень рано, чтобы не испортиться среди нечестивых (7—14). Нечестивые обыкновенно не понимают этой цели ранней смерти праведных и осуждают их (15—18); но когда их самих постигнет лютая смерть (19. 20), когда они предстанут на страшный суд и увидят того самого праведника во славе, котораго они осмеивали здесь: тогда-то они узнают свое заблуждение (5, 1—14); тогда-то Господь, наградивший праведников вечною жизнию и царским благолепием, вместе с ними, вооружится на бтмщепие нечестивым (15—24).

ONLY THE JUST WILL BE GIVEN SALVATION. FULGENTIUS OF RUSPE: The unhoped-for salvation, that is, not hoped for by the wicked, will surely be given to the righteous, not to the wicked. Indeed, it will not be given to those who, not hoping for it, live badly, but to those who, justly hoping for it and abstaining from carnal desires, observe the salutary precepts of blessed Peter, who says, “Beloved, I exhort you, as strangers and pilgrims, to abstain from the desires of the flesh that war on the soul. Let your conduct among the pagans be irreproachable.” ON THE FORGIVENESS OF SINS 2.3.3.
