After asking Christ: Who are you? we cannot fail to ask him:Why did you come?. The two questions are so closely intertwined that the answer to the first anticipates the answer to the second. Even so, the answer to the second question needs to be clearly understood, with all the essential problems inherent in it. The delucidation of the solid foundation. We have searched the Scriptures for the key to the mystery of the person of the incarnate Son of God, and now we shall inquire into the nature of the work he accomplished in our midst. We shall start out by asking the reason for the Incarnation, and then seek to clarify the real meaning of the liberation Christ effectuated. Next, we shall go on to analyze the significance of the path Jesus followed to attain his goal, the path of the Passion. Finally, we shall study the salvific value of the glorification of Jesus, of his glorious state after death, to his Resurrection, his Ascension, and his sending of the Holy Spirit on Pentecost.
