THE MYSTERY OF GOD
Part 1
"But,
in the days when the seventh angel is about to sound his trumpet, The Mystery
of God will be accomplished, just as He announced to His servants the
prophets" Revelation 10:7
When the
seventh angel sounds his trumpet, the Mystery of God will be accomplished—His
secret design, His hidden purpose, as He had announced to His prophets.
The
Mystery of GOD is beyond all human questioning, and without controversy. It is
great indeed, important and weighty. The Mystery of God (referred to as The
Mystery of Godliness in I Timothy 3:16) is 'the
hidden Truth' of God.
"Beyond
all question, The Mystery of Godliness is great:
He
appeared in a body,
was vindicated by The Spirit,
was seen by angels,
was preached among the nations,
was believed on in the world,
was taken up in glory"
I Timothy 3:16
Some
Bible translations used the phrase: 'the
mystic secret.'
The Mystery of God is beyond all
question, but the answer lies in Christ, Who came to earth in the likeness of
man; made visible in human flesh, proved spotless and pure, justified and
vindicated by The Holy Ghost.
It
has been explained that in Genesis 1:1 the word for “GOD” in the Hebrew—the
language in which it originally was written—is Elohim—meaning more than One
Person forming One GOD.
The
Mystery of GOD is beyond all human questioning, and without controversy.
GOD
indeed is a mystery beyond the powers of human conception. But, the knowledge
of GOD is revealed only to those that fear Him.
GOD
is Spirit, but He appeared in a body.
“The Word became flesh, and dwelt amongst us” but, He was vindicated by The
Spirit.
He is
Omnipresent—present everywhere at the same time, but, His manifest Presence is
not revealed everywhere—to every person.
