Augustine of Hippo, on 1Cor 15:51

Augustine of Hippo · A.D. 354–430
1Cor 15:51 · Douay-Rheims
“Behold, I tell you a mystery. We shall all indeed rise again: but we shall not all be changed.”
On this verse:
“The pious people will be raised as they transform the remnants of the "old man" that cling to them into the "new man." The impious people who have kept the "old man" from the beginning to the end will be raised in order to be precipitated into the second death. Those who read diligently can make out the divisions of the ages. They have no horror of tares or chaff.”
