Teologiczne podstawy nowej ewangelizacji

Abstract

The word „evangelization” has gone into the church language for good. In its broad sense it means the activity of the Church which tends to make present the evangelical message in the life of particular persons and all societies. Its type or, as some wants it, aspect is a new evangelization directed at those for whom the Gospel has ceased to be good news about salvation. It is new in its vigour, means and contents. Since the new evangelization is an aspect of evangelization, that is why it is based on the some foundations which evangelization in general have. These foundations are direct and indirect. To the first group belong: a missionary nature of the plan of redemption, the Trinitarian dimension of evangelization, sacraments and order’s consecration. To the second group belong: the missionary mandate of Christ, universal character of redemption and the commandment of love.
