God works in mysterious ways.
No He doesn`t.
Actually, our Lord always works according to His Word.
His Word unveils the mysteries that have plagued mankind since his sin in the garden.
Those who consider our Creator to be mysterious obviously don`t believe that Jesus is the Truth.
Truth always eliminates the mystery of whatever subject it speaks to.
Receiving the Truth makes us free. Avoiding or rejecting the Truth must therefore keep us in bondage.
What is it about mysteries that intrigue us? → vulnerability
→ uncertainty
→ doubt
→ fear
These things may be titillating but they are dangerous to our stability.
In the verses that follow you find that mysteries are explained. And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of heaven: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:  |
And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel, |
Even the mystery which has been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints: |
And the angel said unto me, Wherefore did you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman, and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns.  The scripturse reveals itself. The subsequent verses tell who the beast is. The woman is the mother of humanity. |
