Google: "The Mystery of Iniquity" is a phrase primarily used in the Bible, specifically in 2Thessalonians 2:7, referring to a hidden or veiled power of lawlessness and evil that is operating in the world, often associated with the forces working behind the Anti-Christ, which is not fully understood but is actively working against God's will; essentially, the unseen mechanisms of wickedness that lead to rebellion against God.
That is the essence of the current situation; which will work out to Almighty God’s favour in the yet future!
IMO; the reason/s for Creation is to allow Almighty God to deal with the “Mystery of Iniquity”, in a way which not only defeated Iniquity/Satan; but also allowed as many humans as possible to become Almighty God’s Children (“Christ’s Body”) for eternity!
To even begin to see the meaning of this, we have to allow ourselves to imagine what no man has ever seen; the purpose and existence of Almighty God, in His Domain!
In this mode, we know that God took on the “form of man” in Christ Jesus (Who is the Word); Who made all things (John 1:1–4); and also that through Him, “all that will may come to Him” (Col.1:18)..
The other major/prime reason for Christ Jesus’s Earthly endeavour, is to remove the source of “Lawlessness”/Iniquity; which paves the way for His return to Earth; to “Rule in Power and Great Glory”; and Satan is “bound in the bottomless pit for 1000 years”; prior to Judicial destruction!
See: 2Thessalonians 2:7 - The Man of Lawlessness
“For the Mystery of Lawlessness is already at work; only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way. And then the Lawless One will be revealed, whom the Lord will consume with the breath of His mouth and destroy with the Brightness of His Coming”.
