MYSTERY of SALVATION

 

Romans 11:25 

King James Version

25 For I would not, brethren, 

that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, 

lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; 

that blindness in part is happened to Israel, 

until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.


A little over a month ago, through a previous article, I was introduced by the HOLY SPIRIT to that verse, and was particularly captivated by the mysterious phrase, "until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in".

The phrase was very telling, and very haunting.

Initially, I thought it meant "waiting for the Gentiles to reveal their true nature -- warts and all", for I was thinking about it in a "prophetic" context, of how the world is today.

Of course, that's been adjusted, by studying the meaning of the word "fulness" in Scripture.

Now, I was about to find out GOD's plan of salvation that included both Jews, and Gentiles.

let the verse simmer in my heart.

And finally two weeks, ago, it re-surfaced, as if wanting my immediate attention, and exploration.

Thing is, I didn't know how to begin, as Scripture is a VAST source of GOD's WORD.

Moreover, I'm not a theologian.

I'm merely a baby Christian, intent on getting God's WORD right.

That's pretty much the work I do.

Mercifully, the HOLY SPIRIT woke me up very early this morning, and the pieces to the "puzzle" started "forming".

Here's the result of the Holy Spirit's guidance:

What Does "FULNESS" in the BIBLE Mean?

The ROMANS 11:25 Context

The "FULNESS" of CHRIST
