Some things God reveals to us and some things remain hidden. At the least we should seek to know what God has revealed to us so that we not be full of unbelief.
Deu 29:29 “The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law.
Lord open the eyes of our understanding. Jesus told his disciples that he would be killed and that he would be raised from death on the third day. They did not understand him.
Luk 18:31 And taking the twelve, he said to them, “See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written about the Son of Man by the prophets will be accomplished.
Luk 18:32 For he will be delivered over to the Gentiles and will be mocked and shamefully treated and spit upon.
Luk 18:33 And after flogging him, they will kill him, and on the third day he will rise.”
Luk 18:34 But they understood none of these things. This saying was hidden from them, and they did not grasp what was said.
Open our eyes of understanding LORD so that we be not blinded by our own stubborn hearts.
2Co 4:3 But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost:
2Co 4:4 In whom the god of this world (the devil) hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
2Co 4:5 For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.
The Church is a mystery revealed.
Eph 3:4 When you read this, you can perceive my insight into the mystery of Christ,
Eph 3:5 which was not made known to the sons of men in other generations as it has now been revealed to his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit.
Eph 3:6 This mystery is that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the gospel.
People of all nations are able to come to God through the finished work of Jesus Christ, the Jewish Messiah. This mystery understood is the saving of your soul. This life is soon over and eternal life with the saints of God are made available through the atonement for our sins in Jesus Christ. Do you understand this mystery now? In Jesus Christ is eternal life. Come and receive of him, being truly sorry for your sins.
