THE MYSTERY OF GOD

THE MYSTERY OF GOD

And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables: (Mark 4:11 KJV)

And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. (Revelation 10:4, 7 KJV)

At the sounding of the last angel's message, the mystery of God will be made known.

And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. (1 Timothy 3:16 KJV) 

The mystery is that God Himself became human, Lord Jesus Christ.

My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. I tell you this so that no one may deceive you by fine-sounding arguments. (Colossians 2:2-4 NIV)

The NIV explains that the mystery of God is Christ. Paul goes on to give us the reason for telling us the mystery of God: so that no one will deceive us by fine-sounding arguments. Without knowing this, you have no full understanding, according to verse 2.

Lord Jesus Christ is The Lord God Almighty! Revelation 1:8

Jesus Christ is the Father. Isaiah 9:6

Lord Jesus Christ is the Creator of all things. Hebrews 1:10

To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ (the Holy Spirit) in you, the hope of glory: (Colossians 1:27 KJV)
