Sherlock (and the God of all Mystery)

In this message we’re going to look at the mystery of God through the lens of Sherlock Holmes.


Human beings are made to pursue, know and understand a God who is mystery.

"Every truth about God has an anthropological correlate and every truth about man has a theological correlate."
Theologian Gordon Spykman (94) Reformational Theology

“Praise be to the name of God for ever and ever; wisdom and power are his.He changes times and seasons; he deposes kings and raises up others. He gives wisdom to the wise and knowledge to the discerning. He reveals deep and hidden things; he knows what lies in darkness, and light dwells with him.”
Daniel in a prayer, after God showed him King Nebuchadnezzar’s dream, 2:20-22

“What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived the things God has prepared for those who love him, these are the things God has revealed to us by his Spirit.”
1 Corinthians 2:9-10, NIV

“With all wisdom and understanding, he made known to us the mystery of his will according to his good pleasure, which he purposed in Christ, to be put into effect when the times reach their fulfillment—to bring unity to all things in heaven and on earth under Christ.”
Ephesians 1:8-10, NIV
