Our Common Confession as Christians
1 Timothy 3: 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:
He [5] was manifested in the flesh,
vindicated [6] by the Spirit, [7]
seen by angels,
proclaimed among the nations,
believed on in the world,
taken up in glory.
[5] 3:16 Greek Who; some manuscripts God; others Which
[6] 3:16 Or justified
[7] 3:16 Or vindicated in spirit
