Korona, Sławomir2023-01-242023-01-242014Veritati et Caritati, 2014, T. 2, s. 195-218.978-83-64487-00-22354-0311http://theo-logos.pl/xmlui/handle/123456789/3372Abraham experienced God with his en tire being. This experience was so strong, that he left everything, that made him safe and set off to what was unknown to him. The promise, and possibly a perspective of meeting the One God made him commit his entire life to God. It was impact of the God’s grace that Abraham not only experienced the promise of prodigy, land and blessing, but also observed how the promises slowly but effectively fulfill in his life. The free decision to follow God and conscious response of the man opened for God new ways of granting him with everything that the sin has deprived him of. Having become a human, Christ brings a new order. At the moment of his death on the cross, sin is overcome and people can live in the shadow of God’s saving grace. In Christ God makes impossible happen, He causes the people to become something more than Abraham’s children, through whom the access to God is possible, but become actual God’s sons. Christ’s cross and resurrection are an assurance of the fulfillment of God’s promises and of the fate for His believers. The sign of belonging to Christ, and through Him to God, is not a mere rite of circumcision, but the grace, received through the baptism.plAttribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Polandhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/pl/Jezus ChrystusAbrahamPaweł apostołprzymierzeobietniceobrzezaniechrzestsacramentssakramentyJesus ChristPaul the ApostleapostlescovenantpromisecircumcisionbaptismzbawieniesalvationapostołowieArticle
