Hidden But Now Revealed

Readers' Choice Award WinnerBiblical Foundations Award WinnerWhen reading through the Bible, it is impossible to ignore the troubling fact that Israel and its leaders and even Jesus' own disciples seem unable to fully grasp the messianic identity and climactic mission of Jesus. If his true deity, his death and resurrection and his role in the establishment of God's eternal kingdom were predicted in the Old Testament and in his own teachings, how could the leading biblical scholars of their time miss it?mysterymystery

Quotes

  • Eduardo Barrientoshas quoted5 years ago
    We will define mystery generally as the revelation of God’s partially hidden wisdom, particularly as it concerns events occurring in the “latter days.”
  • Eduardo Barrientoshas quoted5 years ago
    mystery as divine wisdom that was previously “hidden” but has now been “revealed.”
  • Eduardo Barrientoshas quoted5 years ago

The biblical conception of mystery envelops both of these notions
