God Who made men for Himself could not but want them to become like Himself. God Who knows Himself and loves Himself, since He gave us a mind capable of knowing Him and a will ca­ pable of loving Him, obviously intended that we should know and love Him. Moreover, to those natural gifts He added, first, His supernatural revelation through which our knowledge of Him could become incomparably superior to our natural knowledge, and also infal­ libly certain. Secondly, He established a society on earth, a Church, which by His commission, in His name and under the guarantee of His unfailing guidance was to teach us the full truth about Himself and provide us with a rule of life that, observed, will lead to Him. Finally, He caught up our earthly nature and united it with His own divine na­ ture in the person of His Son Who, after winning for us infinite merits by His passion and death, applies them to us through the sevenfold channel of His 20 THE NOTRE DAME SCHOLASTIC
