The One That Solved the Great Mystery

Many of you already know that, after thousands of years of civilization, the great mystery of man's hope was finally revealed in Jesus Christ.

Man's PURPOSE was not a mystery, because from the beginning man was invited to enter into a personal relationship with his creator. Man's PROBLEM was not a mystery, because from the time of Moses onward, it was clear that sinful man was incapable of intimately relating to a holy God. Despite His love for man, God could not lower His standard or compromise His holiness. So there man was- Loved by the heart of God, but condemned by the righteousness of God. Man's HOPE was a mystery. That is, if there even was any hope. The prophets prophesied of hope for all mankind, however, but it was still a mystery as to just how God would bring this hope to a reality. And then came Jesus, the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. Praise the Lord!

HE predestines, HE calls, HE justifies, HE glorifies. (Romans 8:32)

It is not we who are able to establish ourselves in the faith of Christ, but He who is able to establish us in the faith of Jesus Christ.

Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery kept secret since the world began but now made manifest, and by the prophetic Scriptures made known to all nations, according to the commandment of the everlasting God, for obedience to the faith—to God, alone wise, be glory through Jesus Christ forever. Amen.
(Rom 16:25-27)

Trust and obey, for there's no other way, to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey.

Yours in Him,
Pastor B.
