“The first quorum of Apostles were all put to death, except John, and we are informed that he still remains on the earth, though his body has doubtless undergone some change. Three of the Nephites, chosen here by the Lord Jesus as his Apostles, had the same promise—that they should not taste death until Christ came, and they still remain on the earth in the flesh.”Wilford Woodruff, September 5, 1869 · On the Death of Elder Ezra T. Benson · JD 13:318-327
