Poznać Jezusa Chrystusa w wierze

Abstract

The above article presents the problem of how to get to know Jesus Christ in faith. Indeed, the tenets of the Old and New Testaments make faith a requirement for the reception of the grace of salvation and for the opening of oneself to God’s life-giving influence. God alone is man’s guarantor of faith. Faith is a process in which the mind, the will and grace participate. This process assumes first of all the study of Christ as the Messiah and Saviour. Because of man’s deliverance from the existence autonomy and because of his submission to God’s influence, this goal is attainable. It is also possible to achieve it through the practice of faith involving the whole human being and to participation in the community of the Church. Living with faith is linked to the permanent presence of God in one’s life and in the life of all the people. Revelation teaches, that one can rely on God as one’ s rock and can thus experience an elevation to God's life. Relationship with Christ leads to a new order – the supernatural order – and makes man a child of God. fin ally, like God in the Old Testament, Christ demands faith in Himself; belief that H e is God; belief in God and the achievement of full unity with God, so as to participate with Him, in Him and through Him in communio of One God in Three Persons.
