Hidden Mysteries that God Wants to Reveal to Us - Zac Poonen - May 6, 2020
Summary
The speaker discusses Jesus' use of parables, noting that understanding the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven is a gift granted by God, not something achievable through mere intelligence. He argues that true understanding comes not from cleverness or deep study, but from humility, comparing the necessary mindset to that of a little child. Pride and self-sufficiency obscure the recognition of Christ, which is the core mystery revealed.

The speaker discusses Jesus' use of parables, noting that while many people, even intelligent ones, struggle to grasp the profound truths of the New Covenant, the disciples understood them. He emphasizes that understanding these mysteries requires humility, comparing it to the childlike state, rather than intellectual cleverness. True humility is recognizing oneself as nothing before God, which is what allowed the early disciples to see Christ despite the opposition from the educated Pharisees.
