Misztal, Wojciech2023-02-022023-02-022011Polonia Sacra, 2011, R. 15 (33), Nr 29 (73), s. 233-248.1428-5673http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/3486Christian mysticism is a broad field with a long and rich history. The article is a result of research into its origin and nature. The author shows that there has been mysticism in Christianity since its beginnings. He shows the New Testament data in this perspective, especially the data contained in the Corpus Paulinum. These texts allow us to show two characteristic points in the spirituality and mysticism of early Christianity. What matters in the first place is the relationship with the Holy Trinity, that is the moment when the Father, Christ and the Holy Spirit take abode in a Christian. The author also depicts the mysticism of immersion with Christ in death and resurrection, which concerns the whole Christian life.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/chrześcijaństwochrześcijaniemistykawspólnotaPaweł apostołapostołowieBibliaPismo ŚwięteNowy TestamentJezus ChrystusśmierćzmartwychwstaniechrzestCorpus PaulinumChristianityChristiansmysticismcommunityPaul the ApostleapostlesBibleNew TestamentJesus ChristdeathResurrectionbaptismsakramentysacramentsArticle
