Synopsis "The Mystery: Heaven's Secret Story (in English)"
The Invitation "Yet we do speak wisdom among those who are mature; a wisdom, however, not of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are passing away; but we speak wisdom in a mystery, the hidden wisdom, which God predestined before the ages to our glory; the wisdom which none of the rulers of this age has understood; for if they had understood it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory." (1 Corinthians 2: 6-8) The Mystery is the gateway to understanding the Grace of God as taught in the New Testament. From the beginning of time, God had a secret...a "mystery which for ages has been hidden in God" (Ephesians 3:9). Jesus, while dying on the cross, said, "It is finished." He said this "knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled" (John 19:28-30). Now, at that very moment, something was made complete that was incomplete before. Now, something was finished that was unfinished before. "It has now been revealed to His holy apostles and [New Testament] prophets in the Spirit [this] mystery of Christ, which in other generations was not made known to the sons of men" (Ephesians 3:3-6). Today's contemporary church has lost touch with the knowledge of this "mystery" and, as such, has abused Grace and short-changed Faith. Possessing this "full knowledge of Christ" (2 Peter 1:3) will cause you to "never stumble" (v.11) as you become "a mature man to the measure of the stature which belongs to the fullness of Christ" (Ephesians 4:13). God had "something better for us" (Hebrews 11:40). Come and see what "it" was and is!
