Bogdalczyk, Maciej2023-04-172023-04-172018The Person and the Challenges, 2018, Vol. 8, No. 2, p. 29-55.2083-8018http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/6251The presented text aims to distinguish the understanding of the concept of salvation by two significant Christian scholars: John Paul II and Paul Tillich. They come from two separate Christian traditions: Catholicism and Lutheranism. The concept of salvation is so crucial that it is the essence of understanding Christianity and, if recognized as the goal of every human life, the effort of understanding it becomes even more important. An insight into the notion of salvation, based on the indication of similarities and differences in its understanding, makes it more comprehensible and accessible to every Christian.enAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/John Paul IIPaul Tillichpopesclergypriesthoodtheologianssalvation of mansalvationecumenismLutheranismChristianityCatholicismJan Paweł IIKarol Wojtyłapapieżeduchowieństwokapłaniteolodzyteologowiezbawienie człowiekazbawienieekumenizmluteranizmchrześcijaństwokatolicyzmprotestantyzmProtestantismArticle
