“And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ” (Ephesians 3:9).
This is a great verse for this week. Not sure, at first, how to simplify or explain it, I was enlightened by these words.
“It was through Christ, the perfect sacrifice, the atonement for all sin that what was once a mystery is shown. In other words what seemed impossible to live (The Law) with no absolute solution for sin, was made clear only through Christ.
“The mystery was known by God and only God before the creation of the world. Though God made the world perfect, He knew man would fall to sin. Before God created the world He had already established the plan of salvation so that all men could be saved. However, God did not disclose His plan until He presented Christ as the answer. Even in prophecy, Christ was shown to be the answer to the mystery. It was also through Christ that the salvation of the world was to be answered.”
