Every time I see the title of this thread my spirit is troubled. One would suppose based on this title that godliness is proportunate to the radiance of ones mate. Might I suggest that godliness stems from ones walk with Christ. In John 15 Jesus teaches that fruit is born through abiding in the vine. In Gal.5 Paul list the characteristics of godliness as being the fruit of the Spirit. I would suggest that godliness is prportunate to the amount of time one spends in the word, prayer, and fellowship with godly people.
