Undertaking the theological interpretation of selected texts by Fr. Lucien Laberthonnière, a French personalist, theologian and philosopher at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries, I am trying to present an outline of the issue of God in Christian Revelation. The starting point of this reflection is the affirmation of God revealed in Jesus Christ. This means that in the Christian realm, reflection on God, who is love (theology), remains inextricably linked to talk on man (philosophical anthropology). This theme sheds light on a specific aspect of the French personalist’s thought, according to which the mystery of God is inextricably related to the mystery of man called to life out of love and for love. In this way, we touch upon the essence of the doctrine of Trinitarian Christian theology: the inner world of God is a limitless sacrifice, a gift of self-communicating Love which has the power to generate and create another life open to the Love that communicates itself to this life. Love that is expressed in being for others in an attitude of self-sacrifice.
