Despite the law being holy, just, and good, it is a curse to those under it. Christ has redeemed believers from the curse of the law.

Recognizing the differences between the contents of prophecy and mystery is vital in understanding who we are so that we may serve the Lord worthily.

Many know of Jesus after the flesh (as He was in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John) rather than according to the revelation of the mystery of Christ.
