    The Influence of Aristotelianism, Epicureanism, Cynicism, and Stoicism on Human Life in the Early Church
    Baron, Arkadiusz (The Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow, 2015)
    This article deals with the issue of ancient Greek models of life proposed by Aristotle, Epicurus and the Stoics. The author tries to describe how and which of these models were assimilated by Christian society during the first centuries and which were rejected. The purpose of this article is to show how important Aristotle’s, the Stoics and Epicurus’ philosophy was for Christians in the advancement of the Christian lifestyle among the Greek societies. Understanding the development of theology in the early Greek Church requires knowledge of the ideals and values that shaped the thinking and behavior of people before they heard about the Gospel of Jesus.

    Der doktrinale Glaube und der Glaube aus der Begegnung
    Dzidek, Tadeusz (The Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow, 2015)
    The paper’s title suggests that there is a tension any believer is destined to experience. Namely, every human being lives in the space spanned by his/her own experience of God, which can be called ‘a personal encounter’, and by the doctrine, that is, the structured content of religious beliefs suggested by his/ her religious community. The question this paper addresses is the following: what are the constellations in which the faith of a personal encounter and the faith expressed in the doctrine can go together?

    The influence of Gnosticism and Manichaeism on Priscillianist doctrine, basing on Priscillianist and anti-Priscillianist sources
    Sordyl, Krzysztof (The Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow, 2015)
    The aim of this article is to discuss how the Priscilliann’s thought corresponds to Gnostic-Manichaean doctrine. There is no doubt that Priscillian in his writings presents himself as an expert on various heterodox movements of his time. The true sources of Priscillianism need to be sought at the metaphysical level.

    The ecumenical aspect of the justification of the sinner
    Medwid, Wojciech (The Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow, 2015)
    The aim of this article is to discuss the ecumenical aspect of justification. Martin Luther was of the opinion that the road to justification was only through faith and grace, expressed by the principle simul iustus et peccator. The Council of Trent emphasized that justification is not only the remission of sins but is also sanctification. Catholic-Lutheran ecumenical dialogue formally began after the Second Vatican Council, which resulted in a consensus regarding the basic truths of the doctrine of justification and likewise looked at the person of Martin Luther, his demands, and the reformation.

    Naturaleza teológica del deseo humano de Dios En el Itinerarium de San Buenaventura
    Woźniak, Robert (The Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow, 2015)
    The fact that the object of desiderium for Bonaventure is located in the very life of the Blessed Trinity results in its peculiar and original understanding. The object of desire determines its internal structure and, therefore, influences its very nature. In the writings of the Doctor Seraphicus we can numbered at least three essential features of human desiderium Dei, which desire obteins from its object: the Seraphicus understands the desire as (1) a kind of love, as (2) a gift, and finally as (3) important feature of human nature as such.

    Greek Models of Life up to Plato’s Philosophy and its Influence on the Christian Life in the Early Church
    Baron, Arkadiusz (The Pontifical University of John Paul II in Krakow, 2015)
    This article deals with the issue of ancient Greek models of life up to the time of Plato’s philosophy. The author presents in a brief way the ideals in the writing of Homer’s and Hesiod’s, in the Pericleus’ speech from the Peloponnesian war, the Spartans, Pythagoreans and Plato’s model of life and education. Next he tries to describe how and which of these models were assimilated by Christians in the first centuries and which were rejected. The purpose of this article is to show how important ancient Greek culture and philosophy was for Christians not to mention the Greek language in which the New Testament was written. Understanding the development of theology in the early Greek Church requires knowledge of ideals and values which were important for people before accepting the Jesus Gospel.
