So if that classifies Christianity as a "mystery" religon so be it.
Jesus spoke in parables so the average guy would not understand.
Then those who stayed with him he would give them the meaning.
3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. 1 Tim. 3:16
What do you know... the very thing were talking about (who Jesus is) is a HIDDEN TRUTH.

No that does not classify Christianity as a mystery religion, just your view of Christianity.
BTW that verse seems pretty clear. It's not a special hidden meaning. It's clear. The Mystery hidden through out the bible until NOW, has been revealed. See that's the point., There are no mysteries, there are revelations and the word is God's revelation
