1 John 5:6 Douay-Rheims

This is he that came by water and blood, Jesus Christ: not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit which testifieth, that Christ is the truth.

Clement of Alexandria

c. A.D. 150–215 Patristic

He says, "This is He who came by water and blood;" and again -

"For there are three that bear witness, the spirit," which is life, "and the water," which is regeneration and faith, "and the blood," which is knowledge; "and these three are one." For in the Saviour are those saving virtues, and life itself exists in His own Son.
