Now these things happened unto them by way of example; and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages are come. [The facts of the past become examples for the present, because God rules by unchanging principles (Romans 15:4). The Christian dispensation is called "the ends of the ages" because it is the last and final dispensation (1 John 2:18; Hebrews 9:26; Matthew 13:38-39; 1 Peter 4:7). The Christian is the heir of all the past, but none shall inherit after him.]
