Zarębski, Piotr2022-12-122022-12-122002Polonia Sacra, 2002, R. 6 (24), Nr 11 (55), s. 341-348.1428-5673http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/2040The aim of the paper is to show the ecclesiology of a great theologian from Cappadocia on the basis of his most important dogmatic works. Here we do not have at our disposal any clear theology of the Church. Gregory concentrates in his work on the Trinitarian theology and soteriology. The history of salvation finds its continuation in the Sacraments. Gregory is preoccupied mostly with baptism and the Eucharist. It is on the basis of the theology of these two Sacraments – lodged in the Church – that Gregory's vision of the Church (revealing here her maternal dimension) can be attained. The most essential notions to appear in this context are giving birth and feeding, the factors enabling the growth of God's children towards Him. The Church is the Mother on God's will. She gives birth to His children and feeds them in faith on what she received from God.plAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/pl/Grzegorz z Nyssyświęcibiskupiojcowie KościołaWielka Katechezaeklezjologiateologia dogmatycznasoteriologiasakramentychrzestwiaraEucharystiaKościółmacierzyństwoKościół-MatkaGregory of NyssasaintsbishopsChurch Fathersecclesiologydogmatic theologysacramentsbaptismfaithEucharistChurchmotherhoodkapłaniduchowieństwoclergypriesthoodpatrologiapatrologypatrystykapatristicsteologiatheologyArticle
