S. FAUSTI - "No one has ever seen God. It is the only Son, who is close to the Father' heart, Who has made Him known". To see the mother is to be born, to see God is to come to the light of one's face. Nostalgia of the One in front of Whom the man is himself, the man is the desire to see the Lord , His hidden face. But no one has ever seen Him, because, from the beginning, Adam turned away from Him. We have no image of Him, because we are His only image and likeness, if we stand before Him. He is our natural place: elsewhere we are out of place, aching like a dislocated bone, strangers to ourselves and to everything. Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, Who is towards the Father, with His works and Words, with His life and death, showed us God, to the point of saying: "He who has seen me has seen the Father" ( 14.9). He is, in fact, the Word, which for this reason has become " Flesh".The beginning of the Gospel of John brings us, with a shot of wing, over the space and beyond the time, beyond every creature, to show us Who Jesus is, man fully qualified to tell us about the invisible.
