The Word Of God Fully Known - Colossians 1:24-27

Colossians 1:24-27 ESV

Now I rejoice in my sufferings for your sake, and in my flesh I am filling up what is lacking in Christ's afflictions for the sake of his body, that is, the church, of which I became a minister according to the stewardship from God that was given to me for you, to make the word of God fully known, the mystery hidden for ages and generations but now revealed to his saints. To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

This has got to be one of the most amazing passages in Scripture. Paul says that he is honored to be chosen by Christ to make the word fully known. The word is known only fully known  when Christ is in you, for He is the word! 

This mystery for the ages has been revealed in these last days. God is with us because He is in us. We see the working out the union of man and God as pictured by Adam and Eve in the garden. 

We only wait for the number of the bride to be met and this will happen in the fullness of time. Only God knows when. He has always known.
