1 Corinthians 2:7, The Hidden Wisdom
The knowledge of the gospel is true wisdom and yet a mystery, an enigma. It is wisdom hidden to the lost. But for the children of God, it is the wisdom and power of God. The glorious gospel of salvation. It is precious to the saved. It is fable and filth to the skeptics and scoffers.
For this generation of believers, it is the doctrine of the Second Coming of Jesus Christ that is yet a mystery. The world will prepare for Christ’s coming by mounting telescopes to explain away the story of an alien invasion. But for the redeemed, it is a time to preach the gospel and warn the world of God’s impending judgment when Christ returns. This earth will eventually be destroyed!
