Said the Saviour, “Blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear. For verily I say unto you, that many prophets and righteous men have desired to see these things which ye see, and have not seen them, and to hear these things which ye hear, and have not heard them.” The mission of Christ opened to the minds of men truths that had been hidden from the foundation of the world. {2SP 191.3}

Frelseren sagde: "Men salige er jeres øjne, fordi de ser, og jeres øren, fordi de hører. Thi sandelig siger jeg eder: mange profeter og retfærdige ønskede inderligt at se, hvad I ser, men fik det ikke at se, og at høre, hvad I hører, men fik det ikke at høre." Kristus oplyste menneskene om sandheder, som havde været skjulte fra verdens begyndelse.
