Episode Details

In this homily, I explore the theological relationship between Jesus and God the Father as presented in the Gospel of John. I explain the concept of the Logos, or the Word, as God’s perfect and singular self-understanding that exists as the second person of the Trinity. Unlike human knowledge, which relies on observation of reality, I suggest that God’s knowledge is creative and precedes all existence. By examining the dialogue between Jesus and the apostle Philip, the homily emphasizes that seeing the Son is equivalent to seeing the Father because they share the same divine nature. The reflection concludes by highlighting Jesus’s role as a heavenly intercessor who empowers his followers to perform great works through faith.
