I became its servant by the commission God gave me to fully proclaim to you the word of God, the mystery that was hidden for ages and generations
Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God; Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: Whom we preach (Colossians 1:25-28 KJV).
but is now revealed to His saints. To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Everyone loves a mystery. It keeps a story viral! (Col 1:25-27)
Man has made God a mystery, until the “Word” came long. I’m not talking about the bible because many who read it still see God as a mystery. I’m talking of God showing up, in the flesh. Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations but now is made manifest... Christ and his Godhead, “In him dwelleth the fulness of the Godhead bodily” (v9)… When we see Jesus we see the God that has been hiding, we see him who didn’t want to show his face, we see him who talked with Moses on the mount, we see him whose chariot rode the cloud, we see him who spoke to dirt and created man. We see him who said let there be light and out of himself came that light.
Some still teach the trinity, that’s a mystery too, one made by men who thought they knew God but saw him as more than one, but the mystery Paul was talking about was the mystery of God incarnate how the God in Christ became the God in us. His mystery was the Godhead, now revealed in Christ, (Col 2:9)
As long as there’s a mystery man has no obligation to obey truth. Why, truth cannot be found! But when Light comes, and truth uncovers that which the ages have hid, then man has to make a decision, come into that light or forever live alienated from that light and life of God. Friend, Jesus is the evidence of the Godhead and himself God in the flesh …. No more God mystery….
…. Jesus is God!
Paul.
