Paragraph 4. THE CREATOR
294
The glory of God consists in the realization of this manifestation and
communication of his goodness, for which the world was created. God made us
“to be his sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will,
to the praise of his glorious grace”,138 for “the glory of
God is man fully alive; moreover man’s life is the vision of God: if God’s
revelation through creation has already obtained life for all the beings that
dwell on earth, how much more will the Word’s manifestation of the Father
obtain life for those who see God.”139 The ultimate purpose of
creation is that God “who is the creator of all things may at last become
“all in all”, thus simultaneously assuring his own glory and our beatitude.”140
