What is the role of divine revelation in understanding the Gospel?

The Gospel is often seen as foolishness by those who are perishing, but for those who are called, it reveals the power and wisdom of God. Without divine revelation, the truths of the Gospel would remain hidden. The Apostle Paul himself experienced this when God intervened in his life, opening his eyes to the truth of Christ. Understanding and accepting the grace of God within the context of the Gospel is a work of the Holy Spirit, who acts sovereignly to reveal the truth to those chosen before the foundation of the world.
