NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁵ God gave me this stewardship to perform for your good. He has made me a servant of the congregation. It is for the task of fully proclaiming the word of God. ²⁶ It is the secret he hid through all past ages from all human beings but has now revealed to his holy ones. ²⁷ It was God’s will to make known his secret to the people of the nations, this rich and glorious secret that he has for people. The secret is that Christ is in union with you, which means that you will share in his glory.
