Paul preaching according to the revealed mystery []


Many theologians say that Paul's teaching was different from the other apostles. It was, but it was not different in substance, but in style.

± Ro 16:25 Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,

His use of "my" when referring to the gospel was not intended to distinguish it as different, but as the same as the other gospels but distinguishable in that he had been taught to read the Old Testament by Jesus after the resurrection. [1] The others had been taught before the cross; had forgotten, and were then being reminded by the Holy Spirit. [2]

  1. ± Ac 22:6 And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me.
  2. ± Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.
