By common confession, great is the mystery of godliness: He who was revealed in the flesh, Was vindicated in the Spirit, Seen by angels, Proclaimed among the nations, Believed on in the world, Taken up in glory. - 1 Timothy 3:16
Paul affirms that the whole birth, life, death, resurrection, and ascension into heaven of Jesus is a “great mystery of godliness.” Why would He do such a thing? There is no doubt it happened but the full understanding of why He loved us so much to stoop so low will never be understood in this life. It is o the human mind as mysterious as the doctrine of the trinity. We just cannot comprehend it. But praise God it did happen.
