Biblical Context

The author states that the mystery of Christ was made known to him by revelation, and that readers can understand this mystery through his writings.

Neville's Inner Vision

The 'mystery' in these verses is not a distant doctrine but a state of consciousness disclosed to the I AM within you. When Paul says the mystery was revealed to him, imagine that God’s revelation occur in your own awareness as you attend to the present moment. The phrase 'when ye read, ye may understand' invites you to read with the mind that identifies with Christ, which is to say your true, awakened state of knowing. The mystery of Christ becomes your lived experience not by external search, but by the interior movement of consciousness that recognizes the I AM as the Christ within. Brevity in 'afore in few words' hints that truth may be succinct, yet its immersion happens instantly when you align reading with inner revelation. Practice this by treating the verse as a confirmation that your awareness is already endowed with the knowledge of Christ; your job is to awaken to it through conscious assumption.
