Teolog i teologia nie mogą poznać Boga prawdziwego i żywego bez wiary
Słomka, Walerian (Towarzystwo Naukowe KUL, 2012)
A theologian and theology cannot cognize the true and living God, and enter a communion with Him without the experience of faith, love and hope through the intervention of the Holy Spirit, as “without faith it is impossible to please God” (Heb 11:6). “And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us” (Rom 5:5). It should be stated that a man’s reply to God’s Revelation should not be only limited to the words taken from the Holy Bible, Tradition and the Magisterium of the Church without experiencing God’s profoundness and mystery in faith, hope and love within the community of the Church’s believers along with the Magisterium. The statement made by the author of the present reflection shows that for a theologian and theology “it is impossible to please God” and to be creative for mankind without this experience, without the experience of the living presence of God’s Judeo-Christian Revelation in supernatural faith, love and hope, in theological virtues of the Holy Spirit, who from the “I” of the man of the past creates a new “I”, a new subject responding to the mystery of God, who may say: “I no longer live, but Christ lives in me” (Gal 2:20).
