Also to enlighten all men

and explain to them the

plan behind the mystery

kept hidden through the

ages and concealed until

now in God who created

all things by Christ Jesus.

The purpose is that through

the church the complex,

wisdom of God  with infinite,

many layered variety

and innumerable aspects

might now be revealed to

the angelic rulers and

authorities (principalities

and powers) in the heavenly

sphere.

(Ephesians 3.9 and 10).

POINTS FOR PRAISE

AND MEDITATION

1) The infinite riches of Christ

is proclaimed through the

announcement of the Gospel.

2) This is done in order to

enlighten humanity regarding

God’s plan of salvation.

3) This plan was kept secret

though multiple ages in the

mind of God who created

everything by Christ Jesus.

4) The  reason for this is to

show principalities and

powers in the heavenly sphere

the extent of God’s complex

wisdom which is full of infinite

variety, intricacy and innumerable

aspects.

5) Although we are able to grasp it

at a very elementary level we know

this involves us, we are included and

an integral factor in His unfolding

plan. This verse gives us a glimpse

of the future universe in yet

untold,unimaginable splendor,

incredibly beautiful in scope.

The concepts and vocabulary

of Creation2.0 are yet to be

articulated and comprehended.

The human mind in its current

developmental stage is incapable

of conceptualizing Creation2.0

because this reality can be perceived

only through the Holy Spirit.

HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU
LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!

to the effect of that one man’s ( Adam’s)

sin.

For the sentence following the trespass

of one man brought condemnation

whereas the free gift following many

transgressions brings justification.

For if because of one man’s trespass

death reigned through that one

much more surely will those who

receive God’s overflowing grace

and the free gift of righteousness

reign as kings in life through the

one Man Jesus Christ.

Well then, as one man’s trespass led

to condemnation for all men,

so one man’s act of righteousness leads

to acquittal and right standing with God

and life for all men.

(Romans 5.16-18).

Consider these points:

1) The sin of Adam concluded all mankind in sin.

2) Sin led to death and decay ( corruption).

3) Jesus Christ, the Eternal Son, the second

person of the Holy Trinity ( Godhead) being

fully God, also became fully human to give

all humanity a new start ( recapitulation).

4) Now His righteousness is imputed to us

and brings about our reconciliation and

justification.

5) We become a new creation in Christ with

His characteristics, instead of the old sinful

human nature inherited from Adam.

6) Jesus Christ reversed the guilty verdict

and gave us right standing in God’s sight.

7) Because of our right standing which we

receive through Jesus Christ, God’s grace and

extravagant favor overflow  into our lives.
