The article aims to offer a critical evaluation of the idea concerning the beatific vision in the light of its christological root. If Jesus' history is neither a simple instrument nor a demonstration of the divine reality, but it's constitutive of its evidence, then Jesus' vision of the Father coincides with his final revelation. "To see God" doesn't mean overcome Christ's witness in a disincarnated immediacy, but participate to the fulfillment of the eternal human mediation which God has chosen in order to identify himself.
