A dogmatic constitution of the Second Vatican Council that sufficiently, but not exhaustively, explains the Church's teaching on God's Revelation to humanity. This revelation also includes the status ordained by God Himself, through the person of Jesus Christ of the Bishops in Union with the Pope's as the guarantors of the Divine message to all human beings.

Finally, it positively asserts what the sources of Divine Revelation are. That is Tradition, Scripture, and the Magisterium, not simply a teaching office, but a serving office whose responsibility it is preserve and pass on without subtraction or manipulation the revelation initially received by the Apostles.
