The stages of Revelation
In the beginning, God makes himself known as "God, who creates and conserves all things by his Word, provides
men with constant evidence of himself in created realities."
Furthermore, wishing to open up the way to heavenly salvation - he
manifested himself to our first parents from the very beginning. He invited them to intimate communion with himself and clothed them
with resplendent grace and justice.
This revelation was not broken off by our first parents' sin.
"After
the fall, (God) buoyed them up with the hope of salvation, by
promising redemption; and he has never ceased to show his solicitude
for the human race.
For he wishes to give eternal life to all those who
seek salvation by patience in well-doing.

The covenant of Noah
After the unity of the human race was shattered by sin God at once
sought to save humanity part by part.
The covenant with Noah after the
flood gives expression to the principle of the divine economy toward
the "nations", in other words, towards men grouped "in their lands,
each with (its) own language, by their families, in their nations.

Sadaka Yangu Mp3This state of division into many nations is at once cosmic, social, and
religious. It is intended to limit the pride of fallen humanity united
only in its perverse ambition to forge its own unity as at Babel.
But,
because of sin, both polytheism and the idolatry of the nation and of its
rulers constantly threaten this provisional economy with the perversion
of paganism.

The covenant with Noah remains in force during the times of the
Gentiles, until the universal proclamation of the Gospel.
The Bible
venerates several great figures among the Gentiles: Abel the just, the
king-priest Melchisedek - a figure of Christ - and the upright "Noah,
Daniel, and Job".
Scripture thus expresses the heights of sanctity
that can be reached by those who live according to the covenant of
Noah, waiting for Christ to "gather into one the children of God who
are scattered abroad"
