“that is, the mystery which had been hidden from the past ages and generations, but now has been revealed to His saints” (Colossians 1:26).
What was once a mystery, veiled in covenants, feasts, festivals, temples, and sacrifices, has now been made fully evident in the person of Jesus Christ; Christ himself being the true knowledge of God’s mystery (Col. 2:2). It is an understanding that greatly simplifies the message we hold forth regarding the redemptive purposes of God. Instead of being sidetracked by the nuances of vain theological speculation, we can all speak with confidence about Jesus and our relationship with him— “One thing I do know, that though I was blind, now I see” (Jn. 9:25).
