Resumo

his text offers a "testimonial" Christology in three keys: way, encounter and overflow. It is the way, then, Christ, the singular, the concrete universal and the universal concrete, mysteriously unites the fullness of the God who becomes man, and the destitution of the human being who, in his infinite dignity, is enriched with the Spirit. Here are the unfathomable paradoxes of the mystery of Christ (Eph 3:18). Jesús communicates the ultímate love of God in the slightest human expression. On the cross, the Deus semper maior became the Deus semper minor. Theology thinks of the Máximum Mínimum Fact, and inspires love of the Great in the Small. It is an encounter, because on the cross Jesús loved us to the extreme, revealed the love of God and taught us that the meaning of life is in loving as he loves us (cf. Jn 13:1,34). The heart of christian wisdom is the mystery of God-Love (1 Jn 4:8,16). It is overflowing since it is the abundance of mercy poured out from the crucified heart of the Lord. It is the overflow of the ma-nantial of the Spirit that instills a love capable of overcoming limitations and smallness. Only from here is it worth starting everything again...
