~Great is The Mystery~


And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. -1 Timothy 3:16

Mighty is our Lord. His way is beyond our knowledge. We must give reference to God and not have a form of Godliness and deny the powers thereof. 2 Timothy 3:5 His love passes all knowledge that we might be filled with the fullness of God. Eph. 3:19 He is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. 1 Peter 3:22 

Yes it is a great mystery of the Christian faith. He was manifested in the flesh: Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel. Isaiah 7:14 Justified in the Spirit -That is divine vindication - Who is gone into heaven, and is on the right hand of God; angels and authorities and powers being made subject unto him. 1Peter 3: 22  Oh, to know the love of Christ, which passes all knowledge, that we might be filled with all the fullness of God. Eph 3:19He was manifested in the flesh: He is Immanuel! God with us! Hallelujah! Isaiah 7:14

Seen of angels. – Oh what Divine revelation. Preached unto the Gentiles. Seen of Angels - Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ that was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. 1 Peter 1: 10-12. What a mystery!

There is great importance of the faith preached by the Christian church. This is the truth. Should we fail the Christian faith will be hindered. Christ is believed on in the world - divine propagation - And came and preached peace to you that were afar off, and to them that were nigh. Eph. 2:17 He was preached unto the Gentiles - There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. Gal. 3:28

Every nation must hear this great news of the gospel. Proclaim it. We labor and suffer reproach often because we trust in the living God. Great divine fullness. How great to know the love of Christ, which passes knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God. Eph 3:19

Received up into Glory – Wonderful divine ascension and exaltation! When the time was come that he should be received up, he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem, Luke 9:51 Who can know His ways. They are past finding out. Yes He was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God. -Mark 16:19.  The same human body and nature God was manifest in was resurrected and received up to glory.  These divine phases of the mystery of godliness form one complete whole concerning the redemption of all things. No single part is now a mystery, for all have been made clear by many scriptures

Yield your life completely to Him. As He was seen going up He will come again. This is the salvation of which the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: 1 Peter 1:10. We have His Promise. He will come back again just as He was seen going away!

JUST WHO IS JESUS

WHO?  Well lets begin. He is our love.  He is our grace, joy, peace. light and  love.  He is our comforter, our safety guide, strength, and shelter.

 

He is the creator. In His hands are all things.

He is the creator, the beginning and end, and He is most high and has all power.

 

Over and over we read of His miracles. We find He is everything we need. But best of all, He is our soon coming King!

 

He is Lord of All

And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel. -Eph. 6:19

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

 

Even the mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints:


 To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory: -Col. 1: 26-27

Now to him that is of power to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began. -Romans 16:25

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

 

Withal praying also for us, that God would open unto us a door of utterance, to speak the mystery of Christ, for which I am also in bonds:- Col. 4:3

~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~

For God so loved the world, 

that he gave his only begotten Son,

 that whosoever believeth in him 

should not perish, but have 

  everlasting life
