Paul said he was made a minister according to God’s dispensation, given to him to fulfill the Word of God and to preach the mystery which had been hid from ages and generations—a mystery which not even Abraham knew, nor David, nor Isaiah, but is now made manifest to His saints, to whom—to the saints—God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles. What was this mystery? Simply this: Christ in you, the hope of glory—Christ, “whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus†(Col. 1:27, 28). And Paul said he labored and worked at it according to the working of God in him mightily.
