v 10 1) Sometimes God reveals things to us we don't yet understand. 
(and they kept that saying to themselves, questioning one with another what the rising from the dead should mean.) 

v 10 2) Sometimes God reveals things too heavy for us at present. 
Most of us don’t really look for the future, we are too concerned about now.

v 10 3) God must reveal truth to us though we don't understand. 
Present faith is tomorrow’s precedent. 

V 10 4) God must reveal truth to us to get us to grow. 

V 10 5) God must reveal truth to us  to get us to seek Him and truth (questioning.) 

V 11 6) God must reveal truth to us to encourage our turning to Christ as our source of counsel.
 (and they asked him, saying, ••• ) 

v 12 7) God must reveal truth to us, something to help us prepare our heart for and before ministry. 
(and He answered and told them, ••• and how it is written of the Son of man, ••• ) 

v12 8) God must reveal truth to us, something to pre-temper the message to come later
 (Elijah verily cometh first, and restoreth all things;)
God is continually making us ready to live in the day which He has put us.

v12 9) God must reveal truth to us  to get us to focus on the record of His word 
(and how it is written of the Son of man) 
Truth brings enlightenment 

v 13 10) God must reveal truth to us, to reveal nothing is in the way of His will coming to pass.
 (But I say unto you, Elijah is indeed come, ... )
What is important to Christ?
