Revelation and Faith in Old Testament

God revealed himself to people in stages throughout the Old Testament through covenants, miracles, prophets, and salvation history. This revelation reached its pinnacle in Jesus Christ, who perfectly revealed God through his words, works, death and resurrection. God continues to reveal himself today through the Church, by sending the Holy Spirit and maintaining his presence in the world. The purposes of revelation are to liberate people from oppression and give them new dignity as children of God.
