The Catholic Church Says From the Father Through the Son

The catechism refers to the fact that when we say from the Father and the Son, that's equivalent to saying in the Eastern tradition from the Father through the Son. So those are analogous or I'm sorry, those are on the same level. They mean the same thing. And properly understood. But let me maybe give you an illustration. Let's put it like this. We can then speak of the rays of light that come from the Son and then the light itself, the radiance from the ray. That's just an analogy. Obviously, there's some temporality in that analogy ... but it is a decent way to give us an analogy"
