The mystery of faith
"The mystery of faith" and "a mystery of faith" are phrases found in different contexts and with a variety of meanings, either as translations of Greek τὸ μυστήριον τῆς πίστεως or Latin ''mysterium fidei'' or as independent English phrases.
== Two English translations of 1 Timothy 3:9 ==
The phrase "the mystery of faith" is given as a translation of the phrase "τὸ μυστήριον τῆς πίστεως" in in two English versions of the Bible: the Wycliffe Bible and the Douay-Rheims Bible. This translation of the text is exceptional, since far more numerous are the Bible versions that render the phrase as "the mystery of the faith",〔These include King James Version, New Jerusalem Bible, New American Bible, English Standard Version, 21st Century King James Version, American Standard Version, Darby Translation, Holman Christian Standard Bible, Jerusalem Bible, Lexham English Bible, New American Standard Bible, New King James Version, New Living Translation.〕 while others still have phrases like "the deep truths of the faith" (New International Version and New International Reader's Version); "the secret of the faith that God made known to us" (New Century Version); "the revealed truth of the faith" (Good News Translation); "the mystery of the Christian faith" (God's Word Translation); "the true faith that God has now made known to us" (Easy-to-Read Version); "what God has shown us about our faith" (Contemporary English Version); "the faith that has been revealed" (Common English Bible); "the secret of the faith" (Young's Literal Translation); "God's plan and what we believe" (Worldwide English).
The passage in question requires deacons to hold to this "mystery of faith", "the deep truths of the faith", "the true faith that God has now made known to us" or however else it can best be expressed. Richard C. H. Lenski identifies it with "the mystery of godliness" mentioned in verse 16 of the same chapter.〔Richard C. H. Lenski ''Interpretation of St Paul's Epistles to Timothy, Titus, and Philemon'' p608 2008 "3:9 calls 'the mystery of the faith' is here termed 'the mystery of the godliness', but here the hymn lines state just what is meant."〕 According to Witness Lee, it is mainly Christ and the church.〔Witness Lee ''Life-Study of 1 & 2 Timothy, Titus, Philemon'' p49 "The mystery of the faith is mainly Christ as the mystery of God (Col. 2:2) and the church as the mystery of Christ (Eph. 3:4)."〕 This mystery, Andrew Louth says, interrogates us rather than being questioned by us.〔Donald Wiebe ''The irony of theology and the nature of religious thought'' p19 1990 "As Louth puts it with respect to theology, "the mystery of the faith is not ultimately something that invites our questioning, but something that questions us."33"〕 Barnes' Notes on the Bible identifies the word "the faith" in this context with "the gospel", a view with which Gill's Exposition of the Entire Bible agrees, as does the People's New Testament, while Clarke's Commentary on the Bible remarks that one manuscripts gives, in place of "the faith", "the resurrection of the dead, which is one of the greatest mysteries of the faith.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=1 Timothy 3:9 They must keep hold of the deep truths of the faith with a clear conscience. )〕 Floyd H. Barackman says that in this passage "the faith" refers to the whole of the New Testament.〔(Floyd H. Barackman, ''Practical Christian Theology'' (Kregel Academic 2001 ISBN 978-0-8254-2380-2), p. 521 )〕
