Ro 8:17 ¶ And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be also glorified together.

The teaching that we will be intimate with God was hidden from the beginning. The other doctrines of Christ start with the metaphor of a letter. Which is expanded and clarified as words are built from it. But the final shin is not used to form any words. The idea presented by it was not to be discussed.

The doctrine which was hidden is that we will be so intimate with God, that we might even thing ourselves to be gods, if we had not already declared God alone to be God. ^[1] Men of the flesh would imagine themselves as gods, which idea would build up the flesh which already behaves as if it is God. It is only when we are in a proper relationship built in the truth that God alone is God, can we become so intimate.

Since the final shin is not used in any words, there is not a character for it in the fonts. It looks like the shin ש with an extra zayin ז returning on the left side. As Christ returns with his bride, she is filled by the spirit; her spirit is his spirit. They are one flesh. ^[2]

Consider all the words formed by 27 letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Using those words, all thing that were created were created by them. What happens when a 28th letter is made available for forming words? Perhaps that will be the basis for that intimate relationship with God when words which are unspeakable now are made known so that we might know God better.
