CHRYSTUS SAMOOBJAWIENIEM BOGA
Christ as the Self-Revelation of God

Summary/Abstract: God Himself hidden and mysterious, does not remain hidden forever behind a cloud of images that obscure Him more than they reveal, but reveals Himself and makes known the mysteries of His will. God, therefore, makes Himself visible, audible, intelligible and close to us through those in whom He acts in His going out into the world and creating the history of salvation. In a final and complete way, God has revealed Himself in His incarnate Son, who, as consubstantial with the Father, is also His pre-image. In this way, Jesus Christ is the self-revelation of God the Father, who, through the Son in the Holy Spirit, communicates Himself to man, who in turn opens himself to Him in faith. The author of the text proposes a speculative way of expressing the truth of God's self-revelation by using such concepts as Christ-shaped life, God's self-communication, the mission of the Messiah and the formula “Ego-eimi.”
