Who Makes Known [gnwri,zw] the Gospel?
God? Jesus? ? Man? The Church?
“He made known
[gnwri,saj] to us the
mystery of His will,
according to His kind
intention which He
purposed in Him” (Eph
1:9; cf. Rom 9:22, 23;
Eph 3:3 [5]; Col 1:27)
“and I have made Thy
name known
[evgnw,risa] to them, and
will make it known; that
the love wherewith Thou
didst love Me may be in
them, and I in them”
(John 17:26)
“but now is manifested,
and by the Scriptures of
the prophets, according
to the commandment of
the eternal God, has
been made known
[gnwrisqe,ntoj] to all
the nations, leading to
obedience of faith” (Rom
16:26)
“Now I make known
[gnwri,zw] to you,
brethren, the gospel
which I preached to you,
which also you received,
in which also you stand”
(1 Cor 15:1; cf. 1 Cor
12:3; 2 Cor 8:2; Gal
1:11; Eph 6:19, 21; 2
Pet 1:16)
in order that the
manifold wisdom of God
might now be made
known [gnwrisqh/|]
through the church to
the rulers and the
authorities in the
heavenly places (Eph
3:10)
