Who did God reveal the great truths of salvation to after the cross?
After the cross, Christ ascended, sent the Holy Spirit, and the great truths of salvation were revealed to the Apostle Paul. These doctrines were not preached in the Gospels during Christ's earthly ministry but were given to the apostle many push aside, Paul.
Les teaches that the Gospels record Christ's earthly ministry before the cross, so He was not preaching death, burial, and resurrection as accomplished facts, since it had not yet taken place. Even when He told the disciples He would be spit upon, beaten, put to death, and rise the third day, they understood none of it because it was hidden. After Christ finished the work of the cross, ascended back to glory, and sent the Holy Spirit, He revealed these great truths of salvation to another apostle—Paul—the one many like to push into the corner and avoid. Les therefore urges pastors to get into Paul's writings, where the meat is, rather than staying only in the Gospels.
