Chrześcijaństwo pośród religii. Wokół książki „Istota i geneza religii”
Ledwoń, Ireneusz S. (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2002)
The present article focuses on the central problems of contemporary theology of religion, such as the notion of religion, its origin and the relation of Christianity to other religions. The author presents with respet to the sources of religion and its the well-known Polish theologian. Rev. Marian Rusecki’s thought contained in his book Istota i geneza religii (The Essence and Origin of Religion) as well as his own views thus presenting the whole against the background of Polish and foreign theological and theological-religious literature as well as against some documents issued by Magisterium Ecclesiae. The author shows Rev. M. Rusecki’s thought as the leading one in Polish theology, particularly in the aspect of the connection between the notion of religion and its revelational origin and of clearing that notion of all the wrong connotations. He also points to the problems that require a further theological reflection as, e.g., a broader justification of the possibility of existence of an authentic God’s Revelation apart from the economy of the Old and New Testament, making the relation between the conscience and the Revelation more precise with respet to the sources of religion and its moral norms, and finally assuming an attitude towards the issue of philosophical and religious cognition of God.
Kościół a kultura w pierwszych wiekach chrześcijaństwa
Krzyszowski, Zbigniew (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2002)
The problems considered in the present article go back to the roots of Christianity and to fitting the Gospel into the existing cultures: Jewish, Hellenic, Roman and Syrian ones, which was being done by the Church and had important consequences. The process, that was called inculturation, was connected with the kenosis of the Gospel, but it was necessary then and it has always been necessary for the Church to function at the proper level and to develop, while having a creative dialogue with people who are yet not faithful. The article presents various antagonistic positions taken by Christian thinkers in the first five centuries, affirming or rejecting the work of particular cultures and the favourable consequence – humanizing the culture – resulting from that clash of views.
Świadectwo chrześcijańskie jako motyw wiary
Mastej, Jacenty (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2002)
Contemporary fundamental-theological thought sees the need for broad and many-sided argumentation for credibility of Christian Revelation. Apart from showing the existing arguments in a more profound way (ones derived from prophecies, miracles and Jesus’ Resurrection) attempts are undertaken to construct new ones. Praxiological argumentation, referring to, among others, sanctity of life, love, hope and testimony of Christian life are especially convincing for the contemporary man. The aim of the present article is to present the testimony in relation to faith in its motivational aspect. The author tries to answer the question: When does the testimony of Christian life become a motive for faith? The problem is presented in four points. The following issues are analysed: Jesus as a credible Witness of God; the Person of Jesus Christ as the object and source of Christian testimony; forms of testimony; and recognition of testimony and efficiency of motivation. A comprehensive discussion of the above issues has allowed presentation of the testimony of Christian life as a motive for faith.
Świadectwo życia jako motyw wiarygodności chrześcijaństwa według kardynała Stefana Wyszyńskiego
Szponar, Adam (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2002)
The Christian praxis and ’translating’ the contents of Christian faith into everyday life was one of the most important issues discussed by Primate Stefan Wyszyński in various circumstances and at different times. It should be noticed that the Cardinal practised applied apology and he suggested a current and an intuitive meaning of testimony. He pointed out that from Christians’ actual attitudes conclusions should be drawn about testimony, which constitute the basic argument for credibility in his whole teaching. In forming the attitude of a Christian – according to the Primate of the Millennium – the main role is played by the sacraments of baptism and confirmation. The attitude is further developed by upbringing in the family, at Church, at school and in the nation. Testimony of Christian life is realised in the family, its sacramental Catholic marriage, maternity and paternity. According to the Cardinal, through his work man develops his personality, forms interpersonal relations, constructs a new world, and also he actively joins God’s work of creation. Work has a religious and salutary value. In his opinion these are actual ways of giving a Christian testimony that motivate its credibility. It should be noted that the Primate of the Millennium was not only in favour of testimony, but he was a real witness to such life. It was first of all expressed in the testimony of priests’ life, which is not discussed in the article, but deserves a separate study.
