Article 2. The Transmission of Divine Revelation

74

God “desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth”1; that is, of Christ Jesus.2 Christ must be proclaimed to all nations and individuals, so that this revelation may reach to the ends of the earth:

God graciously arranged that the things he had once revealed for the salvation of all peoples should remain in their entirety, throughout the ages, and be transmitted to all generations.3
