    Christian and Muslim Faith in the Same God After the Second Vatican Council
    Krupa, Jozef (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2023)
    This article engages in a discussion about whether Christians and Muslims believe in the same God. It first presents the opinions of the authors who take a negative view, then the opinions of those who take a positive view. It also gives one Muslim viewpoint on the subject. In the next part, based on the letter of Pope Gregory VII, the Second Vatican Council, the address of Paul VI, the address of John Paul II, the Document on Human Fraternity for World Peace and Living Together, the address by Pope Francis at an interreligious meeting in Ur, and concluded by the Prayer of the Children of Abraham, it claims that Christians and Muslims believe in the same God. The author does not address the issue of every religion believing in the same God differently. In objecting to the view of the common belief of both monotheistic religions in the same God with the fact that Muslims do not recognize the Most Holy Trinity, the author points out that even Jews do not believe in it and no one disputes that Jews and Christians believe in the same God.

    The Communion of Saints in Light of Ancestor Veneration in Africa and Its Sequels on the Christian Theology of Hope
    Omollo, Fredrick (Wydawnictwo Towarzystwa Naukowego Katolickiego Uniwersytetu Lubelskiego, 2023)
    The article argues that the praxis of ancestor veneration in Africa is a system akin to the Christian belief in the “communion of saints.” It is a system for realizing the fullest potential of human (religious) experience. Humanness is a skill developed to become more and more human with God’s help. In this regard, well-being, or in the Christian sense, “salvation” is the fruitful accomplishment of a person’s proficiencies by sustaining beneficial relationships between earthly descendants and their ancestors. This worldview is scrutinized through the lens of the Christian doctrine of the communion of saints; thus, it is a present reality and pathway to attaining fullness of well-being. The author recognizes the tripartite Church and identifies the “exalted spiritual life,” “resurrected life,” and divine life as systematically possessed through living the doctrine of the communion of saints. Christian hope is thoroughly Christological, transcending merely natural ties.
