USCCB - Catechesis in the Catholic Church

Catechism of the Catholic Church

False. Para. 516: Christ’s whole earthy life"his words and deeds, his silences and sufferings, indeed his manner of being and speaking" is Revelation of the Father. Jesus can say: "Whoever has seen me has seen the Father," and the Father can say: "This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him!" (Jn 14:9: Lk 9:35; cf. Mt 17:5; Mk 9:7 ["my beloved Son"]). Because our Lord became man in order to do his Father’s will, even the least characteristics of his mysteries manifest "God’s love . . . among us" (1 Jn 4:9).
