What did God set in motion to accomplish salvation, and where did the revelation of the Mysteries come from?

God pre-planned salvation before creation and set everything in motion by bringing about Christ's earthly ministry, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension. From heaven, through the ascended, glorified Lord, God revealed the Mysteries, or Secrets, to Paul; their core is the Gospel that Christ died for our sins.

Les teaches that salvation was pre-planned before anything was created: God would create man, man would sin, and man would need a Savior and Redeemer. God set everything in motion and brought about Christ in His earthly ministry, His crucifixion, and His resurrection, then brought Him back into heaven's portals. From that ascended, glorified position—not Jesus of Nazareth in His earthly ministry—the Lord revealed to Paul the Gospel and the Secrets, or Mysteries. Paul received this revelation after being saved by grace outside Damascus, and he delivered what he also received. The very core of the Mysteries is the Gospel: Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, was buried, and rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.
