I. The Wisdom / Mystery of God / Christ - the same thing
For this cause (Eph.2:1-22) I Paul, the prisoner of Jesus Christ for you Gentiles, If ye have heard of the
dispensation of the grace of God which is given me to you-ward: How that by revelation (Gal.1:11-12) He
(Jesus) made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Whereby, when ye read, (all Paul's
epistles) ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) Which in other ages (generations
under the Old Covenant) was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed (in the New
Testament) unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, (of Christ) which from the beginning
(John.1:1-14) of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ: To the intent that
now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold
wisdom of God, According to the eternal purpose which he purposed in Christ Jesus our Lord." (Eph.3:1-12)
