Paragraph 3. THE ALMIGHTY
272
Faith in God the Father Almighty can be put to the test by the experience of
evil and suffering. God can sometimes seem to be absent and incapable of stopping
evil. But in the most mysterious way God the Father has revealed his almighty
power in the voluntary humiliation and Resurrection of his Son, by which he
conquered evil. Christ crucified is thus “the power of God and the wisdom
of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God
is stronger than men.”111 It is in Christ’s Resurrection and
exaltation that the Father has shown forth “the immeasurable greatness of
his power in us who believe”.112
