1 Timothy 3:15

The Mystery Of Godliness Described

¹⁴ These things write I unto thee, trusting to come shortly unto thee. ¹⁵ But and if I tarry long, that then thou mayst yet have knowledge how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the congregation of the living God, the pillar and ground of truth. ¹⁶ And without nay, great is that mystery of godliness. God was showed in the flesh, was justified in the spirit, was seen of angels, was preached unto the gentiles, was believed on in earth and received up in glory.
