Trynitarny fundament życia moralnego

Abstract

The paper seeks to show the mystery of the Holy Spirit as a foundation of moral life of the Christian. Analysing the history of theology, the author notes that having dogmatised the truth about the mystery of the Trinity, a new epoch was commenced in the Church, i.e. this mystery is more and more often omitted in the moral life of Christians. This has brought about a clash between the practice of life and the considerations of theologians. Once we set on the quest after the revival of moral theology we need to discover anew the inspiring vision of the Triune God. This vision is a point of reference in understanding the world and gives the best key for the mystery of man. Pointing to a necessity of a revived study of theological-moral problems in the Trinitarian approach, the author has numbered those domains in which should be shown in their more profound link with the mystery of the Holy Trinity. They are as follows: the sacramental life, the question of understanding the person and social lite, and a vision of the Church, practices of virtues and the life of prayer. It is essential to refer the theology of creation to the mystery of the Trinity.
