There is one God and there is one mediator, Christ Jesus, Who came as a ransom for all, to Whom we testify: This saying is sure and worthy of full acceptance: That Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners, and was manifested in the flesh, vindicated in the Spirit, seen by angels, proclaimed among the nations,    believed in throughout the world, taken up in glory. Great indeed is the mystery of the gospel. Amen.
