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.

vindicated 2 by the Spirit, 3

u proclaimed among the nations,
v believed on in the world,
w taken up in glory.
