Come Behold The Mystery
GOD’S MYSTERY REVEALED IS THE CHURCH
The unity of Ephesians 2:11-22 is the great mystery of Ephesians 3:1-13. In and through this "new man" - the Church - is the way in which God will save all mankind. The uniting of Jew and Gentile is Step 1 in God's plan "to unite all things" in Christ (Eph. 1:10). From the beginning, God has had one plan to save his one people made up of every tribe, nation, and tongue in his grand pursuit of setting all things at one with himself. Paul's binding in chains is no sign that God's glorious plan isn't going forward (Eph. 3:1, 13). So we should take heart and marvel at what we've been caught up in.
