The manifold wisdom of God

Omar Soto
(Audio: Español)

RESUMEN: The passage in Ephesians 3:10 talks about the multiform wisdom of God, which means that God has different sides that we can experience and learn about. As a church, we reflect this multiformity through our diverse members from different generations and cultures. We cannot put God in a box and must be open to experiencing Him in different ways. It's important to learn to live in harmony with each other, not judge, but discern and distinguish what is good and not so good. Our faith grows when we dare to process complex and gray areas of the Bible. We must pray, ask, and search, trusting that God will answer in His time and way.

In Romans 14, Paul talks about the importance of living in harmony with each other and not judging others. Judgment is important for discernment, but we must be careful not to cause others to stumble. We should focus on what contributes to peace and mutual edification. In Colossians 3:12-14, we are told to clothe ourselves with love, patience, humility, and forgiveness. We should bear with one another and forgive each other just as Christ forgave us. We must wait for God and not lose faith in our pursuit of Him. The speaker encourages the congregation to continue attending Wednesday services not for the guest preachers, but for the pursuit of God's riches in glory. They pray for the fullness of Jesus to be manifested in their midst and for a new revival in the church worldwide.


May Jesus' fullness be shown in our midst. May we hunger and desire to find God, not just emotionally, but also with understanding. May our minds, spirits, and emotions be enriched by the experiences of others. May we see ourselves and others as God's children, and may His glory be shown through each of us.


There is a passage that always shocks me when I read it, but in a good way, and it is in Ephesians, chapter 3, verse 10. I am going to start with this verse, I am going to refer to different ones, but I want to start with this one. Ephesians chapter 3 verse 10. Look how it says: "So that the manifold wisdom of God may now be made known through the Church to principalities and powers in heavenly places." The phrase I want to pay attention to is that, "so that the manifold wisdom of God."

Multiform means that it has many forms, it is varied. It has different sides where one can analyze it, or experience it. I am not saying that there is variety in God, because the variety that there is in God, I do not mean that He changes his mind, because the Bible is very clear that in God there is no variety or shadow of doubt in Him, but yes the variety we are talking about is who He is. When we believe that we have already known something of God, what we thought we knew, wow, it changes, it goes the other way. God teaches us another side of Him that we had not considered, that we had not seen. It may be that in our lives we had thought that we are living a comfortable, calm life, that problems are, as they say, on the margin, and our stress level is not high, and suddenly a tragedy happens that shakes the world and that makes us question, but come here, God, I thought that you were good, that you were with me, and that nothing bad about this was going to happen to me, and now oops, it happened, and as that trauma passes, one gets to know a totally new dimension of God, at least if one opens up to know that new dimension of God.
