Summary/Abstract: Drawing on John Paul II’s encyclical Fides et ratio, this paper answers the question of why Christian Revelation provides a vital link between faith and reason. It approaches the problem from the perspective of personalism. In order to capture the essence of the relationship of Christian Revelation to faith and reason, the paper addresses the following issues: why a human person is a mys- tery to himself, why Christian Revelation corresponds to a human person’s mystery, and what identity is given to faith and reason by Christian Revelation.
