What a Mystery!

 (ID: 3189)

The Gospel is a great mystery—but not in the sense we might expect. As he explores Paul’s words in Ephesians 3:1–6, Alistair Begg reminds us that the Gospel is not a puzzle that can be solved by human deduction or reason but a wonder that can only be known by the life-giving work of the Holy Spirit. The mystery of Christ is that Jews and gentiles alike can be brought near to God as members of one body through the work of Jesus.
