Speaking about the role of knowing the truth in the liberation process, Fr. Blachnicki emphasized the experience of God’s action that brings liberation through Jesus Christ in the Holy Spirit. According to him, freedom in its deepest essence is dependence – however, it is a dependence that has been voluntarily accepted. For the human will is free only in so far as it consciously chooses what reason reveals as truth and value. The perfection of man and his liberation consists in the inner harmony between the will and the truth that has been recognized; therefore, no one can deprive a man of freedom but himself when he closes himself off to love and truth. A person who voluntarily surrenders his/her life to the truth he/she has recognized remains free even in the face of the greatest danger. The experience of freedom awakens in man a desire to serve and live for others, above all in matters concerning their salvation. Such existence, which is pro-existence, is possible for man in the Holy Spirit. Nature contaminated by sin focuses man on his own ”self”, while the Holy Spirit pours into his heart the dynamics of love, which consists in having himself in self-giving. The more one submits oneself to the Holy Spirit, the more fully one realizes one’s call to freedom as a child of God.

The truth about freedom and liberation is constantly threatened by a false notion of freedom and an erroneous assumption that freedom is to be found only where there is no external compulsion. According to Father Blachnicki, real freedom is born out of an internal overcoming of a hatred that makes one use violence and abuse as means to an end. Using the Gospel as the starting point he would promote the fight for liberation without violence, using the power of faith, that allows one to give testimony to the truth in every situation. He was of the opinion that actions aimed at the liberation of man should be seen as continuations of the salvific mission of Christ. In the face of alarming liberal attitudes that reject God’s rules in the name of incorrectly understood democracy it is worthwhile to bring to mind Father Blachnicki’s thesis that it is freedom that leads to liberation, not the other way round. For freedom is not a simple effect of liberation, and external liberation in itself does not guarantee the experiencing of internal freedom. Thus at the bottom of this pro-liberation pursuit there is an internal liberation which is liberation of man within man carried out in the process of formation of new man. Ultimately freedom is not an ability to do anything, but it is freedom towards Good which is the source of happiness. Man becomes free up to the point of his recognition of the truth and his will is driven by freedom. Theology of liberation presented by father Blachnicki is the application of theology of redemption to solving specific manifestations of enslavement among people of the contemporary era.
