What happened to the mystery that was hidden from ages and generations?

Les explains that the mystery, the secret, had been hid from ages and generations, but now it is made manifest to His saints. Paul constantly reminds believers that they are members of the Body of Christ, a special compilation, a special amalgamation of believers from every walk in life and from every corner of the globe by virtue of having believed the Gospel.
