We know the mystery of faith is true through the revelation of Scripture and the historical reality of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection.
The truth of the mystery of faith is grounded in the divine revelation found in Scripture. The Apostle Paul emphasizes in Colossians that this mystery was hidden for ages but has now been revealed in Christ. The historical reality of the events surrounding Jesus—His incarnation, crucifixion, and resurrection—further substantiates the truth of this mystery. As believers, our assurance also comes from the inner witness of the Holy Spirit, who confirms the reality and truth of the gospel in our hearts, leading to a transformative faith that embraces these divine truths.
