The Mystery of Godliness
The Gospel is the truth whether we believe it or not. As Alistair Begg explains, the “mystery of godliness” described in 1 Timothy 3 summarizes this truth. The Lord Jesus came in the flesh and was vindicated through His resurrection from death. The apostles proclaimed this among the nations, and Jews and gentiles alike believed in Christ, fulfilling God’s promise to bring blessing to the world. He then ascended to heaven, whence we eagerly anticipate His glorious return.
