St. Irenaeus: disciple of Polycarp, disciple of John, the beloved disciple of Jesus

 Hello All,

Jesus became human to present God to humanity.  And, he became human to also present humanity to God, so that humanity would not "cease to exist" (cassaret esse).  Forever.

"For the glory of God is a living man; and the life of man consists in beholding God. For if the manifestation of God which is made by means of the creation, affords life to all living in the earth, much more does that revelation of the Father which comes through the Word, give life to those who see God."

- St. Irenaeus, disciple of Polycarp, disciple of John, the beloved disciple of Jesus

Grace=Peace,

Jeremy
