The center of Paul’s gospel is Romans chapter 8, which is concerning the Triune God dispensing Himself as life into all the three parts of man to fill man with life! In Romans 8 we have the Father, the Son, and the Spirit (v. 9-11) who is God the Triune for the purpose of dispensing Himself into man!
Firstly, God enters our spirit (v. 10) then He saturates our mind, our soul (v. 6), and then He enters our body (v. 11) giving life to every part of our tripartite being! This is the center of the gospel!
The five main mysteries in the universe
Every thoughtful person living on the earth has – at one point in time – been puzzled by the mystery of the universe, the mystery of man, the mystery of God, what will happen in the future, and what is the church.
Does God exist? How does He look like and what is He like? Why is man on the earth – here today and gone in a few years? What does our future hold, even after death? If there’s a God, how can I be related to Him or how can I know Him? – these are some of the questions many people have asked throughout the ages, and the answer is IN THE BIBLE!
The Bible unveils the keys to the mystery of God, man, the universe, the church, and the future. God is a mystery – no one has ever seen or touched God, but He exists and He is a mystery to man.
The universe is also a mystery – immeasurable, incomprehensible. Man is a mystery both to himself and to others! The church is a mystery – especially in its definition and its purpose.
Also, our future is a mystery, especially the future of mankind. The Bible reveals these mysteries, and Romans 8 especially unveils and explains these mysteries!
Romans 8 unveils and explains the five mysteries
In Romans 8 we see the Triune God (the Father, the Son, and the Spirit) who is for dispensing Himself as life into man – this is why God and man exist.
Also, we see that the church is a composition of all the many sons of God who enjoy the inward working of the law of the Spirit of life, the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Christ, and the Spirit of the resurrecting One.
The Triune God is processed and consummated to become THE SPIRIT (all-inclusive, life-giving, indwelling, and compounded) to meet all our needs and satisfy us!
The gospel of God is the answer and the key
Actually, all the mysteries are being solved by the gospel – the answer to all the mysteries is the gospel of God.
The gospel – according to Romans 8 – is that God desires to enter into man and make sinners sons of God, that these sons of God are living members of Christ for the constitution of the church (the Body of Christ), and that these ones are in the church – which is expressed in different localities, living the church life in the local churches. Praise the Lord, the gospel is the answer and the key to all the mysteries!

Thank You Lord for the key to unlock the mysteries of the universe! Praise You for Your dispensing into us as life to be everything to us and meet all our needs. O, Lord, keep us under the divine dispensing of the divine life continually. Make us those who bring people under the divine dispensing so that they may be filled with life! Lord, we praise You – the gospel is the key to all the mysteries!
