“Great Things the Father Hath Laid Up for You”

Brant Gardner

These end-time events concern two groups of people, the Gentiles and the house of Israel. God invites them to come to him. If they come, God will increase their faith. Both the Gentiles and Israel are to come after periods of unbelief. The Gentiles who repent and “come” will be shown “knowledge which is hid up because of unbelief.” Israel who comes will learn “how great things the Father had laid up for you,” even after their long period of unbelief in the true Messiah.
