How do we resume the entirety of the Catholic Faith in a few words, simply and succinctly, so that whoever we are talking to can understand? Is it even possible to do that? And what if we explain something wrong and misrepresent our Faith?

Divine revelation that is delivered to men from God and which is not directly infused into our minds, must be delivered to us by means of analogies which signify the higher truth that is of a spiritual nature, and therefore it requires an interpretation - or put otherwise, an explanation of the deeper spiritual meaning, so that we are able to reliably arrive at this truth.
