Why would a king birth his kingdom with a sacrifice?
The greatest mystery of all time is the mystery of Christ, the crucifixion of Jesus the Messiah. But the Bible uses the word “mystery” of other things, too:
· Resurrection life.
· Anyone can enter God’s kingdom through faith in Jesus, Jew or Gentile.
· The mystery of lawlessness.
- That mysterious woman with the mysterious name, Babylon the Great.
Such mysteries are not dark secrets known only to certain insightful people; biblical mysteries once were hidden but now are revealed.
By reflecting on these stimulating short pieces, you’ll understand each mystery. And you’ll discover they’re all about the kingdom of God.
Understanding the nature and significance of mystery in the Bible is essential for grasping the purpose of God in history and our place in His purpose . . .
. . . living for the King in His kingdom.
