Paragraph 1. THE CHURCH IN GOD’S PLAN
755
“The
Church is a cultivated field, the tillage of God. On that land the ancient
olive tree grows whose holy roots were the prophets and in which the
reconciliation of Jews and Gentiles has been brought about and will be brought
about again. That land, like a choice vineyard, has been planted by the
heavenly cultivator. Yet the true vine is Christ who gives life and
fruitfulness to the branches, that is, to us, who through the Church remain in
Christ, without whom we can do nothing.147
