1 Timothy1:17
17 Now unto the King eternal , immortal , invisible , the only wise God , be honour and glory, for ever and ever , Amen.
The Apostle falleth out of this discourse with a Doxology or Sentence giving glory to God whom he calls the King, that is, the moderator and Governour of all things.
Eternal, without beginning of dayes, or end of Life.
Immortal, not subject, as Creatures, to any Passion, or determination of Being.
Invisible, not obvious to our senses, whom no mortal eye ever saw.
Onely wise. Primitively and originally, and eminently, from whom all Wisdom is derived.
Be given all praises, homage and acknowledgments, by which he can be made glorious for ever.
