With what are the “mystery doctrines” concerned? To whom were these doctrines revealed?
The mystery doctrines are concerned with the Church Age, the unique dispensation that God kept hidden until He was ready to reveal it. They unfold the uniqueness of the Church's place in the dispensations of God and the uniqueness of the divine provisions given to all Church Age believers. This full revelation of the mystery was given to Paul alone, to whom the Holy Spirit made known the outline of God's plan for history.
