ACC ~ 1 Corinthians 15 v23

VARIABLE SEQUENCES OF MATURATION IN FAITH. ORIGEN: Although all are contained within the one faith and washed in the one baptism, the process of maturing in faith is not the same for all, but rather “each one in his own order.” HOMILIES ON GENESIS 2.

EACH IN ORDER. AMBROSE: The fruit of divine mercy is common to all, but the order of merit differs. ON HIS BROTHER SATYRUS 2.92.

PUNISHMENT AND BENEFIT OCCUR IN DIFFERING DEGREES. CHRYSOSTOM: Just because everyone will be raised from the dead, do not imagine that all will enjoy the same benefits. Even just thinking of punishment, there is a great difference in the degrees of suffering which will be inflicted. How much more then will there be a difference between the fate of sinners, on the one hand, and the righteous on the other. HOMILIES ON THE EPISTLES OF PAUL TO THE CORINTHIANS 39.5.
