What is so intriguing about a secret? Is it the delicious power of knowing something only you or a few know? Does it create an exclusive bond of trust with another?  Or maybe it just makes you feel special?

 Knowing and keeping secrets from a human perspective can lead to negative and sometimes dangerous consequences. But this is not so when the One who holds the Secrets can be Totally Trusted!

The secret things belong to the Lord our God, but the things that are revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may do all the words of this law. (Deuteronomy 29:29)

God is the Ultimate Secret Keeper!  Even those who won't acknowledge Him will agree! For there are some things that Believers and Non-believers share when it comes to wondering about the Secret Things of God!   Such As..

SECRETS ABOUT HIMSELF!

• God is both Transcendent and Immanent: God cannot be understood or seen physically in our natural and finite state.  He is invisible and no one can see Him and live. (John 4:24; Exodus 33:20) Yet, He IS knowable!  He dwells and is ever present within us with His Spirit. (I Corinthians 3:16; Acts 17:27-28) In the spirit we are empowered, strengthened and comforted by His presence. He is never far away from His children!
• He has No Beginning and No End: God is Self-existent.  He was not created not even in the minds of others (as some would have you believe).  He is Sovereign and is not dependent on any one other than Himself.  He exists solely for His own purposes and will be so for eternity.  (Colossians 1:16-17)
• His Wisdom is beyond our understanding: Even the knowable parts He reveals will cause us to scratch our heads!  Some things we just won't understand. That is why our relationship with God is built on FAITH.  We just have to Trust Him! (Isaiah 55:8-9; Hebrews 11:1)

 SECRETS ABOUT HIS CREATION!

• The Universe: Man estimates that the observable universe has at least two trillion galaxies. Our earth is located on the Milky Way and is just one of them!  So, could there be life then on other planets?
• The Human Body: The adult body has about five liters of blood circulating through it continuously. It also has an average of five million pores (tiny holes) in the skin that allows it to breathe and rids the body of toxins. Yet there's never a leak of that blood or any blood loss at all unless an injury occurs from the outside. How could this be?
• Plant Life: A mustard seed is only 1-2 millimeters in diameter (a pencil dot) but can produce a tree 2.7 meters tall (2,700 times its size). Who but God could do this?

 SECRETS ABOUT SPIRITUAL MATTERS!

• Why an All-Powerful God allows Evil (Romans 8:28) 
• How One Man's death secures the Salvation of uncountable souls throughout generations (Romans 5:12)
• What happens during physical death ((I Corinthians 15:55-58)
• When Christ is coming back (Matthew 24) 

You may have noticed that no commentary, only scripture is given for this last section.  This is because man is STILL grappling with these questions and God is showing us the only place an answer can be found and the only ones He will share it with!

The secret of the LORD is with them that fear him; and He will shew them His covenant.  (Psalm 25:14)

THE SECRET IS IN THE BOOK!!!!

UNTIL NEXT TIME
