“…in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.”
Col. 2:3
Christianity is meant to be mysterious. Everything about Jesus and the Father is mysterious and unexpected.
When we try and make Christianity a list of doctrines, principles and techniques for living we don’t diminish Christianity. We diminish ourselves. We need mystery. We need something for which we search.
Jesus is where we search. Once we have found Jesus as our Saviour it is only the beginning of discovering the mysterious love of the Father.
How we can be forgiven by the Father is perhaps the greatest of all mysteries Jesus solves for us, but from forgiveness we begin to uncover all the hidden things of the Father for us in Christ.
If your experience with the Father and Jesus is not mysterious, then you missed the mystery that you need to keep you searching in Jesus for all the treasure the Father has given us.
