Constitutions of the Holy Apostles Book VI

For our Saviour says to the Sadducees: "But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which is written, I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God, therefore, is not the God of the dead, but of the living; for all live to Him."[180]

Clementine Homily III

And to those who say that Abraham and Isaac and Jacob are dead, He said, `God is not of the dead, but of the living.'[55]
