Romans 15:8-13 There are many mysteries in the universe yet unsolved by man; veiled from his sight, concealed from his understanding; beyond his comprehension.  Such mysteries have always fascinated mankind, beholding the wonder and the splendour, yet at a loss how to furnish an adequate explanation.  The Apostle Paul spoke much of the mystery of the gospel.  The prophets of old foretold of a future time when the Gentiles would join the household of Israel to praise the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.  The fact that this was going to happen was no mystery yet the “how” of this revelation was!  Two people groups, poles apart, separated by the Law.  Yet Paul expounds this great mystery of the gospel, that the Gentiles should be fellow heirs, and of the same body, and partakers of His promise in Christ by the gospel!
