...And to make all men
see what is the fellowship of the mystery,
which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God,
who created all things by Jesus Christ...
Ephesians 3:9
...But we speak the
wisdom of God in a mystery,
even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world...
1 Corinthians 2:7
...according to the
revelation of the mystery,
which was kept secret since the world began...
Romans 16:25
...the mystery
which hath been hid from ages
and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints :
To whom God would make known what is the riches
of the glory of this mystery ...
Colossians 1:26
...Having made known unto
us the mystery of his will,
according to his good pleasure which he hath purposed in himself...
Ephesians 1:9
...That their
hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love,
and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the
acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ;
In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge...
Colossians 2:2-3
...And he said unto them,
Unto you it is given
to know the mystery of the kingdom of God...
Mark 4:11
...This is a great
mystery: but I speak
concerning Christ and the church....
Ephesians 5:32
A note about our identity crisis /
multiple urls: Our group and this site originally
began under the name theAntiChurch.org (see
"Why The
Name AntiChurch?"). As an impetus for understanding
why we are not part of the institutional church system, this worked well. It
also works well for our "how we're different" articles (501c3, tithing, etc). As
an actual identity though, it doesn't work well (it's not like we just
sit around bashing other churches in our meetings. We hardly discuss others in
fact, and we remain open to fellowship
with other believers we disagree with on many of the points raised on this site,
and even learning from them).
Our meetings are centered around Jesus Christ, and the fellowship of the mystery of the gospel, and so it is from this term that we draw our fellowship's name. However, search engines will "treat us better" (and more people will be reached) if "church" is in the url, so we keep it, as it is a valid "undercurrent" of our identity.
Depending upon the need, this site can be shared using theAntiChurch.org, MysteryFellowship.org, or SpiritualNotReligious.org - which will all bring you to this page. For linking, we prefer that you use theAntiChurch.org
