“Now will I rise, saith the Yehowah; now will I be exalted;
now will I lift up myself.” Isaiah 33:10
“For it is written, ‘As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me,
and every tongue shall confess to God.’
So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.”
Romans 14:11–12
When Paul encountered the risen Lord, he came to realize that Jesus,
whom he had been persecuting, was God Himself the Yehowah who had become flesh and had risen from the dead.
It was the fulfillment of what the prophets had written in the Old Testament and declared would surely come to pass.
In an instant, Paul understood that the Yehowah God Himself would rise and exalt Himself.
The Son of God is the one Creator, theYehowah God Himself, who came as Immanuel.
The prophets proclaimed that the Creator would become flesh,
and Paul proclaimed the very words that the prophets had written would surely be fulfilled.
Paul preached that Jesus Christ is God the Yehowah who became flesh and rose from the dead.
He proclaimed that this was the wisdom of God hidden in mystery,
and that God had ordained it before the ages for our glory.
Until the end of his life, Paul proclaimed the gospel
that the prophets had declared would surely come to pass, and he was martyred for his faith.
“But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom,
which God ordained before the world unto our glory.” 1 Corinthians 2:7
