Rightly Dividing the Word of Truth

Week 11 – The Mysteries of Paul's Gospel

Post 289 · Day 71-1: Ephesians 3:3-5 – The Mystery of Christ Revealed to Paul

Who This Is For: Grace-age believers in the Body of Christ hungry to explore the deep mysteries revealed exclusively through the Apostle Paul for this present age.
“How that by revelation he made known unto me the mystery; (as I wrote afore in few words, Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ) 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.” — Ephesians 3:3-5 KJV

Paul received the mystery by direct revelation — not by human teaching, apostolic tradition, or deduction from the Old Testament. The mystery 'was not made known unto the sons of men' in previous ages. This is the defining statement of the grace-age revelation: something new has been disclosed that was entirely hidden before.

Right Division: Right Division: The mystery of Christ — the Body of Christ, Jews and Gentiles equally joined in one new man — was not prophesied in the Old Testament. It was hidden. Paul's 'as it is now revealed' marks the dispensational boundary: before the mystery was hidden; after Paul's revelation, it is disclosed. This is why right division begins with identifying this boundary and placing yourself on the correct side of it.

Application: Read Ephesians 3:1-12 today in one sitting as Paul's autobiography of the mystery. Notice his wonder at being entrusted with it. Then ask: do I have this same wonder? The mystery of the Body of Christ — of which you are a member — is the most astonishing theological reality in the universe. Meditate on it today with fresh eyes.
Prayer: Lord, open the eyes of our understanding that we may know the hope of Your calling, the riches of Your glory in the saints, and the exceeding greatness of Your power toward us who believe. Let the mysteries You revealed through Paul become the foundation of our walk and witness. In Christ's name. Amen.
