III. God’s Spirit and Word in the Time of the Promises
705
Disfigured by sin and death, man remains “in the image of God,” in
the image of the Son, but is deprived “of the glory of
God,”66 of his “likeness.” the promise made to Abraham
inaugurates the economy of salvation, at the culmination of which the Son
himself will assume that “image”67 and restore it in the
Father’s “likeness” by giving it again its Glory, the Spirit who is
“the giver of life.”
