Faith

Who interprets Revelation?

Not each person on their own.

If each person interpreted faith solely from their own tastes or impressions, the truth would end up fragmented. Something more than individual opinion would be needed. The Church has the mission to safeguard and authentically interpret what God has revealed. That guidance does not cancel your intellect: it helps it walk with greater certainty. Christian faith does not arise from an improvised and isolated interpretation. It is received within a Church that preserves, explains, and transmits what Christ entrusted to his disciples.
