Surely
you have heard about the administration of God's Grace
That
was given to me for you, that is
THEY
MYSTERY MADE KNOWN TO ME BY REVELATION
As
I have already written briefly.
In
reading this, then, you will be able to understand
MY
INSIGHT INTO THE MYSTERY OF CHRIST,
Which
was not made known to me in other generations
As
it has now been revealed by the Spirit
To
God's Holy Apostles and Prophets.
THIS
MYSTERY IS
That
through the Gospel the Gentiles are Heirs together with Israel,
And
Sharers together in the Promise IN Christ Jesus.
I
became a Servant of this Gospel by the Gift of God's Grace
Given
me through the working of His Power.
Although
I am less than the least of all God's People,
This
Grace was given me:
To
Preach to the Gentiles the Unsearchable Riches of Christ,
And
to make Plain to Everyone the Administration of this MYSTERY,
Which
for Ages Past was Kept Hidden IN God,
Who
Created all things.
His
Intention was that Now, through the Church,
THE
MANIFOLD WISDOM OF GOD
Should
be made known to the Rulers and Authorities
In
the Heavenly Realms, according to the Eternal Purpose
Which
He accomplished IN Christ Jesus our Lord.
IN
HIM and Through Faith IN HIM
We
may approach God with Freedom and Confidence.
I
ask you not be discouraged because of my sufferings for you,
Which
are for your Glory.
For
this Reason I kneel before the Father,
From
Whom His Whole Family in Heaven and on Earth derives its name.
I
Pray that out of His Glorious Riches
He
may Strengthen you with Power
Through
His Spirit IN your Inner Being,
So
that Christ may dwell IN your hearts through Faith.
And
I Pray that you , being Rooted and Established in Love,
May
have Power together with all the Saints,
TO
GRASP HOW WIDE AND LONG AND HIGH AND DEEP
Is
the Love of Christ,
AND
TO KNOW THIS LOVE THAT SURPASSES KNOWLEDGE--
That
you may be Filled to the Measure of all the Fullness of God.
Now
to Him who is able to do Immeasurably more
Than
all we ask or Imagine,
According
to His Power that is at work WITHIN US,
TO
HIM BE GLORY IN THE CHURCH
And
in Christ Jesus throughout all Generations,
For
ever and ever! Amen.
(Ephesians
3, NIV)
The
Mystery of Christ remains a Mystery
To
the Unbelieving World that has Rejected Him,
But
Not a Mystery to Satan and his Demonic Horde;
The
“god” of this Age has Blinded the minds of the Unbelievers,
So
that they cannot see the Light of the Gospel
Of
the Glory of Christ Who is the Image of God. (2 Corinthians 4:4)
We
live in a World, Blind to the Essence of this life on Earth.
But
for those who have Received Christ;
This
Mystery made known by Revelation;
Who
have said YES to Him;
For
those who have Christ living IN and THROUGH them,
They
have the Power to live this LIFE Christ has called us to;
The
only Power able to do that, the Holy Spirit of God;
This
LIFE IN CHRIST that will Not be without Suffering,
Even
as the apostle Paul experienced
And
every Saint who has ever lived.
THE
ONLY HOPE THAT EXISTS IN THIS LIFE,
Is
Christ IN US the Hope of Glory. (Colossians 1:27)
THERE
IS NO OTHER HOPE!
And
this Hope remains a MYSTERY to the godless;
Those
who have Refused to Love the Truth. (2 Thessalonians 2:10)
Christ Jesus warned us:
Be
always on the Watch,
And pray that you
will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,
And that you may be
able TO STAND before the Son of Man.
(Luke 21:36)
Today,
the World is raging against God, Rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This
World in its Present Form is Passing Away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America
is being Ground to Powder because of her SIN against God.
Save
yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As
God has Written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father,
Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
