Aksjologia Ewangelii

Abstract

There is no doubt that the Bible as a holy book, especially the Gospel, contains specific guidelines that provide the axiological foundations of human life and determine the purpose and meaning of existence. The word of the Gospel reveals all those values that make the world truly human – a world of goodness, truth, beauty and harmony – by disclosing the entire truth about human beings and their moral life. The values which the Gospel describes and which constitute the foundations of Christ’s teaching reveal their universal, timeless character in a phenomenological reflection, thus being appropriate for all people of goodwill. Therefore, the Gospel can be regarded as a kind of catalogue of evangelical values which among others include salvation, grace, love, mercy, forgiveness, holiness and heroism.
