In Ephesians 3, Paul explains God's "secret plan", which was revealed to him by the Holy Spirit. The revealed mystery was that "the Gentiles would have an equal share with the Jews in all the riches inherited by God's children". Paul says this was His plan from all eternity, to show his wisdom in joining together the nations together in His church. All who have faith in Christ, whether Jew or Gentile, can now come boldly before God, assured of His welcome. "By His mighty power at work within us, He is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope."
