John Gmuer As this man has studied for far longer than I could ever hope to see if you like this; John MacArthur, The MacArthur Study Bible, page 2012, par. 3 The Mystery. A Greek term meaning "to shut" or "to close". In the NT, a "mystery" is a truth that God concealed, but has revealed through Christ and His apostles (see notes on Eph. 3:4, 5; cf. Rom. 16;25). Here the mystery is the final consumation of all things as God destroys sinners and establishes He righteous kingdom o nearth. as He declared. This mystery, though not fully revealed, was declared to God's prophets (cf. Amos 3:7). I heard it taught once not to divorce the word mystery from the words is finished in the same verse. This makes it mean that the mystery is the finising of the things of God, as in the end times completion of His plans to end the world as it is and set up His eternal kingdom. In this sense the mystery means that in the seventh angel sounding it is signifying that the completion of God's plans is at hand, and as God's will is decided beforehand, the beginnnig of whatever He has decided will happened all ready contains its end. So the angel sounding the trumpet is signifying God's plan as finished, finito. peacebestill |

Colossians 2:2 My purpose is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ. col 2:2 The "mystery of God" is Jesus Christ. Read Chapter 10 in the Book of Revelation with this in mind. |

John Gmuer I have only one question for you; how is the Christ being finished in this verse, Revelation 10:7? Christ all ready finished and sat down at the right hand of the Father, Christ rising to the status of Christ has been completed... So in what sense do you mean that Christ is being finished here, not finishing, but being finished as the scripture says something, being the mystery is being finished, and not the mystery in is finishing something else not mentioned? peacebestill |
