PART ONE: THE PROFESSION OF FAITH
Section One: "I Believe"- "We Believe"
Chapter Two: God Comes to Meet Man
Article 1: THE REVELATION OF GOD
Jesus Christ |
III. Christ Jesus - "Mediator and Fullness of all Revelation"
God spoke to us through his word. The message had been revealed through the prophets before but later spoke to us by his Son Jesus Christ. "In him he has said everything." Any person questioning God or desiring some vision or revelation would be guilty not only of foolish behavior but also of offending him, by not fixing his eyes entirely upon Christ and by living with the desire for some other novelty, St. John of the Cross comments on Hebrews 1:1-2
No new public revelation is expected, with Christ there is a new and definite covenant. Through time other revelations have been recognized. It is not the role of the Christian faith to improve the Revelation of Christ.
