Idea pracy: od Lutra do zielonoświątkowców u najnowszych autorów protestanckich

Abstracts

PL

Dla Lutra praca była powołaniem, Kalwin zaś przez pracę podkreślał potrzebę uwielbienia Boga. Od czasu propozycji Webera i Troeltscha teologię pracy i pochodzenie kapitalizmu omawiano i badano w różnych denominacjach protestanckich, takich jak luteranie, kalwiniści, purytanie i metodyści. U niniejszych wybranych kilku ostatnich teologów protestanckich doceniamy ciągłość i ewolucję w teologii pracy, które prowadzą nas do dziedzictwa zielonoświątkowego w naszych czasach. Niektóre perspektywy powracają do koncepcji contemptus mundi, którą odrzucił Luter, jednak odkrycie działania Ducha Świętego w codziennej pracy wymaga zielonoświątkowej teologii pracy.

EN

For Luther, work was a vocation, while Calvin emphasised the need to glorify God through work. Since the proposal of Weber and Troeltsch, the theology of work and the origin of capitalism has been discussed and studied in different Protestant denominations such as Lutherans, Calvinists, Puritans and Methodists. In this selection of some recent Protestant theologians, we appreciate continuity and evolution in the theology of work that lead us to the Pentecostal inheritance in our days. Some perspectives go back to the contemptus mundi that Luther refused, but the discovering of the action of the Holy Spirit in the daily work needs a Pentecostal theology of the work.
