Radość męczeństwa i realizacja Bożej mądrości według Orygenesa
Zieliński, Jacek (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
The text, referring directly to the theme of the writings of Origen of Alexandria Exhortation to Martyrdom, first discusses the aspiration and desire of its author to crown his life on the model of his Father Leonidas and described in the Second Book o f the Maccabean Elazar and seven brothers with martyrdom. Understanding this goal, described as the ideal of the Christian life, is not possible without showing the three meanings of death that the Alexandriac puts forward in his Disputation with Heraclides and the nature of man and the three parts that define it: soma, psyche and pneuma. It is only against this background that both Orygenes’ desire to die a martyr’s death for Christ and to associate it with a state of full joy and happiness, which is the realization of the ideal of God’s Wisdom, becomes comprehensible.
O teologii „ponownego filozofowania”
Walker, Adrian J. (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
I began this essay with William Portier’s assessment of the potentialities of what he dubs „evangelical Catholicism” I also noted Portier’s concern of „retheologizing” theology, too long a captive to the secular social sciences. I then tried to build a case that any such retheologizing, if it is to be successful, must include a „rephilosophizing” of theology as well, while attempting to show how this concern for philosophy emerges organically from the very work of retheologizing theology itself. The philosophy that so emerges, in fact, is nothing but an articulation – itselfconcretely embodied – of the concrete, primordial act of thinking enfolded within the Christian experience of assimilation to the body of Jesus in the Church. In this way, I hope to have allayed some of the deep suspicion of philosophy shared by many older Catholic theologians, who associate philosophy with bad memories of rationalistic Scholasticism, and many younger ones, whose post-modem proclivities incline them away from what they take to be „grand narratives” Philosophy is not ideology, but engagement with the whole: ressource-ment, in a transparency that is akin to the childlikeness that Jesus asks of us in the Gospels.
Racjonalność a wiara w Boga
Spaemann, Robert (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
Starting with his own modification of Plato’s allegory of the cave the author explains the notion of creation, which does not mean a single initiating event but the grounding of the entire process of the world in a creative will that lies outside of this process. Faith in God is faith in a reason for the world, which is not itself groundless, as the scientific worldview holds. When we think the concept „God”, we think the unity of two predicates that are only occasionally and never necessarily bound together in our earthly experience of the world: the unity of absolute power and absolute goodness, i.e. the unity of being and meaning. After Nietzsche we can no longer rest the proofs for the existence of God on the human capacity for truth, for its foundation is sure only if we presuppose the existence of God. However, there is a grammar based proof that is Nietzscheresistant. The rationale of the futurum exactum, the future perfect tense, shows that the reality of the present entails the reality of the past. The question is: What sort of reality does the past have? The sole answer can be: We have to think of a consciousness in which everything that happens is taken up, an absolute consciousness.
Karola Bartha wkład do teologii pracy
Płachciak, Adam (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
The purpose of this study is to analyse Karl Barth’s contribution to the theology of work. Although the Swiss theologian accepts Protestant classical view of work as a vocation, he develops his own idea of work. Dealing with the subject of human work Barth puts a strong emphasize on a relationship rather than on principles. This is important especially when the theology should provide reasonable arguments against the ideological support of his contemporary culture that created capitalism and the war. The crucial point for Bart’s understanding of human work is the Command of God which calls man for the active life. The author of Church Dogmatics believes that there is a vital connection between God’s calling of man and man’s responsibility in the place of his calling. Such a responsibility must never be reduced just to the fulfilment of man’s professional duties. It requires a total obedience to the concrete call of God in particular circumstances.
Karola Bartha teologia małżeństwa
Jaskóła, Piotr (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
K. Barth is a continuator of the reformation theological tradition. Marriage in his teaching is included in the order of creation, not in the categories of sacramental grace. According to him, marriage is an image of God’s covenant with man. Thanks to faith, one can see a vocation and a task in a marriage. Marriage is thus, in its essence, a full, lasting, exclusive and institutional community of life.
Bodhidharma i Paweł. Buddyjskie i chrześcijańskie uzasadnienia postaw życiowych
Lorek, Piotr (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
This article juxtaposes the main theses of living as presented at the turn of the 5th and 6th centuries by Bodhidharma, the first patriarch of the Buddhist tradition of chan (zen), included in the work attributed to him entitled Outline o f Practice, with appropriately selected extracts from the epistolary legacy of Paul of Tarsus, who lived in the 1st century AD and is considered a co-creator of Christian thought. First, the Buddhist concepts of the non-substantiality of reality, karma and variability are analysed, as well as their appropriate influence on the attitude of life. Next, Christian beliefs about the essence of people, being in Adam, transitoriness, imminent resurrection and experience of grace are discussed. These beliefs are also translated into an appropriate attitude towards life. The comparison of the thoughts of Bodhidharma and Paul indicates the worldview differences between them, but also selected functional convergences. The work also shows the convergence of life attitudes resulting from two different systems of religious thought.
Zadania i możliwości teologii w dyskusji między Karlem Barthem i Erikiem Petersonem
Królikowski, Janusz (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
The article presents a discussion on the tasks and possibilities of theology, which in 1922-1925 was undertaken by Karl Barth and Erik Peterson. From different perspectives, they deal with the relationship of theology towards God’s Word. This is an issue that also remains relevant in our time and requires confirmation. Peterson rightly points out the need to include in theology the dogma, which is fundamentally rooted in the incarnation of the Logos, whose Church is an extension. The dogma provides certainty to theological statements. Barth’s lecture, especially the proposal to develop dialectical theology, can be read as an incentive to give theology a doxological dimension. Both theologians rightly emphasize that theology needs an anthropological starting point for that to be met with due interest.
Pierwsze owoce ciała i pierwsze owoce ducha: tajemnica Wniebowstąpienia
Granados, José (Wydawnictwo Pallottinum, 2020)
osé Granados, in „The First Fruits of the Flesh and the First Fruits of the Spirit: The Mystery of the Ascension”, reflects on the relationship between the Resurrection and the Ascension in light of the meaning of time. Granados shows how the Ascension safeguards the link between the earthly life of Jesus and the time of the Church. „With the Ascension, something new follows the events of Easter: the glorified flesh of Jesus associates the body of the Church to himself, and, through this body, the entire cosmos... If in his Incarnation Jesus binds the origin of history to his own origin in the Father, now he unites his definitive return to the Father with history’s movement toward God”.
