The Mystery of the New Testament


The New Testament church was a mystery in Old Testament times. Because of this, many of the doctrines so prevalent to the New Testament Christian were not alluded to in Old Testament scriptures, nor did they enter the minds and hearts of Old Testament saints. Silence within Old Testament scripture concerning any New Testament church age doctrine should be no cause of alarm today. God’s revelation of truth has been progressive throughout man’s history and many truths “kept secret since the world began,” are now “made manifest” (Romans 16:25-26). Paul frequently testified of doctrinal truths that followed this pattern (Romans 11:25; Romans 16:25; Ephesians 3:3-12; and Colossians 1:26-27).
