Rusecki, Marian2023-05-082023-05-081998Roczniki Teologiczne, 1998, T. 45, z. 2, s. 5-19.0035-7723http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/6914Traditional ecclesiology, especially apologetic ecclesiology, usually reduced the role of the Holy Spirit to Pentecost as a promulgation of the Church and the infallibility of the message of Revelation. This was connected with the institutional conception of the Church. Following contemporary ecclesiology, the documents of Vatican Council II and the pneumatology of the eastern Fathers of the Church, John Paul II in the encyclical Dominum et Vivificantem outlines pneumatologic ecclesiology, the fact which is a novelty in this area. Taking into account the more recent theological research concerning the Church-bearing life and activity of Jesus Christ, John Paul II shows that in His whole life, teaching, conduct and activity (His attitude towards others, miracles), and especially in the paschal events (the last supper, passion, death and resurrection), the activity of the Holy Ghost is promised. It is He who enlivens the life of the Church. He is present and acts ion the whole Church. He enlivens the salvational effectiveness of the Word of God within the Church, makes the holy sacraments effective. He is the cause of permanent ecclesiogenesis through His gifts present in the lives of fellowships and institutions (charismas). The Church is a dynamic reality, not a static one. The Holy Spirit leads us to the final regeneration.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/Duch ŚwiętyKościółencyklikadokumenty KościołaMagisterium KościołaDominum et VivificantemJan Paweł IIKarol WojtyłapapieżekapłaniduchowieństwoteologiaHoly SpiritChurchJohn Paul IIpopesclergypriesthoodtheologyencyclicArticle
