How do we know the mystery of Christ is revealed?

Answered in 1 source

The mystery of Christ is revealed through divine revelation, making known the depths of His grace and union with His people.

In Ephesians 3:3, Paul references a revelation he received that discloses the mystery regarding Christ and His church. This mystery is not understood through mere human intellect but is revealed by God to His chosen individuals. Jesus Himself affirms this process in Matthew 16:17, stating that Peter's recognition of Him as the Christ was revealed by the Father in heaven, not through human insight. Additionally, Colossians 1:26-27 emphasizes that this mystery, which was hidden for ages, has now been revealed to the saints, specifically that 'Christ in you' is the hope of glory. This mystery encapsulates the union between Christ and His people, demonstrating the richness of God's grace that allows believers to share in the divine life of Christ.
