Problem tak zwanego obrazu Boga w świetle tezy Paula Tillicha o objawieniu finalnym

Abstract

The problem of the so-called “view of God” is more and more popular in pastoral practice, as well as in evangelization. The term “view of God” refers to images and conceptions, which occurs in the heart of every believer. This topic is so vital that it is definitely worth theological reflection. For the Christian theology, there is only one criterion of all views of God, which is Revelation of God. Revelation in Christ, called by Tillich the final revelation, is an ultimate key to judge all conceptions about God. According to Tillich, this revelation can also judge and purge all religious experiences. It is true that every human being has his own relationship with God, but it is also true that the only one real view of God is that revealed by God himself in his Son. This view is a view of Love dying for the salvation of people.
