The Mystery of Godliness

14 I hope to come to you soon, but I am writing these things to you so that, 15 if I delay, you may know how one ought to behave in the household of God, which is the church of the living God, a pillar and buttress of the truth. 16 Great indeed, we confess, is the mystery of godliness:

sHe1 was manifested in the flesh,

vindicated2 by the Spirit,3

tseen by angels,

uproclaimed among the nations,

vbelieved on in the world,

wtaken up in glory.
