1 Corinthians 14:25. [1] the secrets of his heart are made manifest; and so he will fall down on his face and worship God, declaring that God is among you indeed probably by an open confession, giving vent to the irresistible conviction that had seized him.

[1] “And thus” of the received text is insufficiently attested.
