53b For this mortal must put on immortality.
34a Awake to righteousness and sin not; for some have not the knowledge of God;
Wisdom 3:9 they that put their trust in him shall understand the truth.
51b We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed
52a in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet.
53b For this mortal must put on immortality.
