What is the mystery St. Paul alludes to in his epistles?

The Lord Jesus Christ is the mystery of God, concealed in the Old Testament but to whom the prophets alluded and prophesied with conviction, was revealed and the prophecies fulfilled in the New Testament. Thus, all the mysteries mentioned in the Holy Scripture point to Christ Jesus and the revelation of these mysteries and God's kingdom are now revealed to the world and declare the truth only through the Lord Jesus Christ, "the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints. To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory" (Colossians 1:26-27).
