Theologically a mystery is a truth that can be partially understood by reason but only fully understood by revelation from God and then only fully in the next life. The term mystery comes from the Greek mysterium. GoD is the ultimate Mystery who can be partially known through the evidence of his creation, but only more fully understood by his revelation of Himself to us. In the Eastern Church the sacraments are called the mysteries of faith. The Western Church translates mystery as sacrament, which is Latin for oath. The Hebrew word for covenant or oath means "to seven oneself." Think of the seven spirits and the seven fold blessing and seven fold curse of Dueteronomy and Revealtion. Think of the rest on the seventh day. Thing of Jesus as our Sabbath rest. Think of the seven Churches in revealtion that represent the universal Body of Christ and on and on.
