Jews, Christians and Muslims all believe we would have no knowledge of the same one true God in whom all three faith communities believe, unless God had chosen to lovingly reveal Godself to us. Catholics believe that God reveals what God is like through the Church’s prayerfully pondering the Scriptures and other things passed on (Tradition) from the early years of the Church’s life and then agreeing on an understanding based on these ponderings. This agreed understanding is conveyed by the Church’s Bishops in union with the Bishop of Rome, the Pope.
