Paragraph 772

772. It is in the Church that Christ fulfills and reveals his own mystery as the purpose of God’s plan: “to unite all things in him.”189St. Paul calls the nuptial union of Christ and the Church “a great mystery.” Because she is united to Christ as to her bridegroom, she becomes a mystery in her turn.190Contemplating this mystery in her, Paul exclaims: “Christ in you, the hope of glory.”191
