Were the new doctrines later revealed to Paul part of God's original plan?
Yes. The new doctrines and teachings later revealed to Paul were in God's mind from day one, yet He kept them secret until the appointed time. They were not an afterthought or change in plan, but were part of His original purpose, later disclosed through Paul's epistles.
Les teaches that the new doctrines and teachings revealed later, especially in Paul's epistles, were not a departure from God's plan. They were in His mind from day one, but He had kept them secret. The context shows this secret revelation came after Israel rejected the King and the kingdom, and after the events in Acts. Les emphasizes that Paul's epistles, such as Romans, explain how God now deals with Gentiles under grace rather than the Mosaic system. So the new doctrines were part of God's original plan, hidden until the proper time.
