For it seems to me that God has put us the Apostles last of all, as men whose fate is death: for we are put on view to the world, and to angels, and to men.

Now these things were done as an example; and were put down in writing for our teaching, on whom the last days have come.

And last of all, as by one whose birth was out of the right time, he was seen by me.

The last power to come to an end is death.

And so it is said, The first man Adam was a living soul. The last Adam is a life-giving spirit.

In a second, in the shutting of an eye, at the sound of the last horn: for at that sound the dead will come again, free for ever from the power of death, and we will be changed.
