As a culture, we are obsessed with time. Everything revolves around the clock.

But in God’s economy, everything is to revolve around Jesus Christ. He is the central point, He is the North Star, He is the preeminent focus. And it is the life of Christ which is the essence of the mysterious plan for the fullness of time (God’s clock).

Over the past several studies in Ephesians, we have been unpacking the great mystery, hidden from ages and generations. In this study, we look at Ephesians 1:9-10 and examines five aspects which Paul gives concerning this mysterious plan for the fullness of time and how this “mystery” is to be central and foundational for our lives.
