WITHOUT CONTROVERSY

1 Timothy 3:16 (NKJV) 16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, Justified in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Preached among the Gentiles, Believed on in the world, Received up in glory.
  Without argument God is exactly whom He says He is, no one can refute His commands, counsel, or judgment, He alone is God. He alone created, he alone sustains, He alone holds the outcome of everything that exist in His hands. So then what is man or who are we to question His motives or design?
   Paul writes to his protege Timothy and explains Gods ways for the church, instructing him how to manage the local gathering of believers. Timothy is clearly shown how to officiate in the church and how those around him should function as well.
   Godliness is a mystery and we see that Godliness, reflected in His flesh (Jesus), by the Presence of His Spirit (Holy Spirit), the announcement of Angels, the preaching of His Power, the obvious, overwhelming reception by believers and the fact He walked out of the grave alive and is now seated in Eternity.
   How should we respond to this, simply, reverently, confess He alone is all we need, and without Him we could not exist. Ask Jesus to come into your heart and live through you His way. Great is the mystery of Godliness.
Heavenly Father may every breath we breath exalt You. May every action, consider You, let all we do focus on our need for You. May those around us see You in us and may we always seek your Face. Amen
