Re:Verse passage – Mark 4:21-25, 33-34 (day two)

“For nothing is hidden, except to be revealed; nor has anything been secret, but that it would come to light.”

There are no secrets that have ever done any good for any family, giving rise – always – to shame and confusion and despair. Secrets in a business setting lead to unethical, and often illegal, behavior. Within a government, secrets, though often presented as necessary for security purposes, will invite abuses of power which bring about large-scale suffering on a global scale. The kind of life that God lives, and therefore the kind of life that all inhabitants of the heavenly realm live, is a life devoid of any hiding. In God’s society, all things are good, and all persons have access to all things. This good news is the opposite of dark secrets.
