MYSTERY OF CHRIST / EPHESIANS 3:4-5

(KJV) Ephesians 3:4-5

Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) ⁵ Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;

Paul speaks of the “mystery of Christ,” hidden for ages past in God (Ephesians 3:9) and now made known by revelation (Ephesians 3:3) through the Holy Spirit to the apostles and prophets (Ephesians 3:5). The mystery is God’s purpose to “bring all things in heaven and on earth together under one head, even Christ” (Ephesians 1:10) and to include people of all nations (Ephesians 2:14-17) in the promise of spiritual salvation and eternal life (Ephesians 3:6; Romans 16:25-26; 2 Timothy 1:1). In the Old Testament, it was prophesied that the Gentiles (non-Jews) would turn to the God of Israel and be saved (Romans 15:9-12), so that was not a mystery to those of the New Testament world. But the fact that Gentiles would share equally in the life, promises and purposes of God (Ephesians 3:6) was unexpected by both Jews and Gentiles. It was a mystery that was temporarily hidden until God revealed His full plan of salvation through faith in Christ (Colossians 1:25-26).
