The life of the Church from the very beginning is connected with searching for Her own identity which has its expression in the forming of the profession of faith. The testimonies of this fact can be found already in the Old Testament, which is shown in multifarious doctrinal formulas which are handed over by the apostolic proclamation which is based on them. In a relatively short time these formulas were gathered as a whole, first in the profession of faith used during the right of Baptism and later, especially in a profession of faith which is called the Apostles’ Creed. It has preserved its significance and superior role in theology and preaching to this day although in reality its role has been diminished especially in preaching. This paper recommends the return to the Apostles’ Creed and to its inspiring role. The most important thing is to present its doctrinal message which highlights the need for the holistic, Trinitarian and Christological perspective in reference to theological issues. Today, the Apostles’ Creed can play the same role in the organisation of Church proclamation, which admiring the so called original kerygma falls into short-sighted interpretations and restrictions, resulting in the weakening of Christian identity.

Because 20:30-31 pulls together John’s themes of witness, faith, and signs so fully, it is best to regard this conclusion as a point of departure for analyzing of the phenomenon of faith and bearing witness to Jesus. W 1:19-28 John negatively testifies that he himself is not the eschatological king, Elijah, or the Mosaic pro-phet, but that one whose slave he was not worthy to be was already among them. In 1:29-34, he positively testifies that Jesus in the lamb, and he recognized his identity as Son of God (1:34) and Spirit-bringer (1:33) because the Spirit was on Jesus (1:32-33). The “next day” provides a transition to a new christological con-fession to John’s disciples. In view of Gospel’s penchant for double entendre, that the Baptist saw Jesus “coming” (ἐρχόμενον) to him (1:29) may suggest a narrative confirmation of the one “coming” (ἐρχόμενος) after John (1:27).

Życie Kościoła od samego początku związane jest z poszukiwaniem własnej tożsamości, której wyrazem jest formowanie się wyznania wiary. Świadectwa tego znajdujemy już w Nowym Testamencie, o czym świadczą rozmaite formuły doktrynalne, na których opierasię i które przekazuje przepowiadanie apostolskie. W stosunkowo krótkim czasie te formuły zostały zebrane w jedną całość, najpierw w chrzcielnym wyznaniu wiary, a potem zwłaszcza w wyznaniu wiary nazywanym Symbolem Apostolskim. Zachowuje on swoją wagę i pierwszorzędną rolę w teologii i w przepowiadaniu do naszych czasów, chociaż w praktyce jego rola uległa pomniejszeniu, zwłaszcza w przepowiadaniu. W niniejszym artykule proponuje się powrót do Symbolu Apostolskiego i do jego inspirującego naczenia. Chodzi przede wszystkim o wydobycie jego przesłania doktrynalnego, które zwraca uwagę na potrzebę całościowego, trynitarno-chrystologicznego, ujmowania zagadnień teologicznych. Taką samą rolę może on odegrać w porządkowaniu dzisiejszego przepowiadania ościelnego, które zachwycając się tak zwanym kerygmatem pierwotnym, popada w krótkowzroczne interpretacje i zawężenia, czego rezultatem jest osłabianie tożsamości chrześcijańskiej.

We have tried to show in our research the connection formulas of faith in God and the Church in relation to the Mass euchology the sense in which the profession of faith in God (Credo in unum Deum) is, and what is not identical to an article of faith in the Church (et... Ecclesiam). The similarity of these articles of faith has analogous nature, but it is not identical, because where there are similarities, the differences are even bigger, particularly in relation to God. The belief that the Church is holy and universal (catholic), that is one and apostolic, is inseparable from faith into the Triune God. But when, in the Apostles’ Creed we profess faith in the Church (et... Ecclesiam), then we use here a different form than in the article regarding belief in God (Credo in... Deum), because God is the Creator, and the Church is His creation, because the goodness of God is the source of all the gifts which the Church enjoys. The difference in the meaning of the creed in unum Deum, and et... Ecclesiam resolved so clearly the Catechism of the Catholic Church (cf. 750). This is confirmed by the Pope Benedict XVI, and even those of the theologians who wrote before its release in 1992. Even meta-historicity and theandric reality of the Church in terms of Paul Evdokimov did not storm the structure of the economy of salvation, which was created and revealed to us by God in Jesus Christ and the Church after Pentecost. It provided us in the Church and through the Church (and its liturgy). According to Evdokimov, the mystery of the Church still comes from the creative act of God, and it remains creation. The decisions of the ancient doctrine of the Church and later on over the centuries, remain no doubt that the Apostolic Church is that only through the saving work of Christ the Lord, and their credibility derives from its permanent presence in the Church. However, on the other hand, we know that He identifies himself with the Church (with his brothers, with their followers), as it is seen in a very explicit way in the testimony of Acts, the risen Jesus in dialogue with Saul (cf. Acts 9:4), which has immediately understood that by persecuting the disciples (the Church), haunted by the one who blinded him with its splendor on the road to Damascus. Then, the converted Saul–Paul, develops profound doctrine of the Church as the Mystical Body of Christ. But never in a physical manner. He does not identify the Church and Christ. This can be noted especially in his letters to the local communities. For example a sinful Church in Corinth (1 Cor 5), which Paul had to rebuke. Besides, a very eloquent text, talking about rectifying the identified shortcomings sufferings of Christ (Col 1:24). We can clearly see that it is a body which is the Church, its good that is done by the suffering endured in the flesh by Paul himself for the name of Jesus. So neither Paul nor the Church is presented as a perfect one. A similar picture of the Church emerges from Missal’s euchology, which we discussed on selected examples of the collects and prefaces, which in turn confirm and demonstrate the true meaning of the Credo in unum Deum, and et... Ecclesiam. Both the differences and similarities within the meaning of these syntagmata don’t remain any doubt that the interpretation of these articles of faith in the Catechism of the Catholic Church is consistent with that what emerges from the typical edition of the latest Roman Missal. Our conclusions are based not only on the Magisterium of the Church, but also in its praxis, which has always had a profession of faith (lex credendi) and accounted for the liturgical space of the expression (lex orandi). We have to say that nowhere in the texts of the Mass euchology such a use occurs a syntagma et... Ecclesiam (in acc.), which would suggest that we believe in the Church in the same sense as in unum Deum. The theological content of the prayers clearly shows an understanding of this syntagma of the Church, which was articulated by the Catechism (CCC 750) and the Magisterium of the Church, along with those who comment on them. In this article, we wanted to show the validity and verifiability of such an understanding and positions that avoid ambiguity and even confusion in the interpretation of the meaning of these two interdependent articles of faith, a subject to the differences in their interpretation. We can say that we discussed euchology that is the thumbnail of the Roman Missal according to ecclesiology and thus portrayed a vision of the Church over the centuries in the key of prayer, centered in the lens just like the one liturgical book, which is a Missal.

How can we deal with the double dimension of Christian initiation, which is both ended when it is “completed” and open to the future of Christian existence? In our postmodern era of fluidity and blurring of the ages of life, catechetical pastoral care is invited to transform itself by offering multiple entry doors for the preparation of the sacraments, since we can be baptized and receive the sacrament of confirmation at any age. This transformation is accomplished by making each sacramental journey and the whole of existence an unceasingly (neo-)catechumenal journey where the first-second kerygmatic announcement is each time repeated and deepened. It is so, because, according to an eschatological aim, the possible moments of spiritual maturity are numerous in life and the pedagogy of permanent initiation leads to a maturation never fully accomplished.

W kierunku ciągłego procesu katechetycznego (neo-)katechumenalnego: płodność w każdym okresie rozwojowym Jak poradzić sobie z podwójnym wymiarem inicjacji chrześcijańskiej, która jest zarówno zamknięta, kiedy jest formalnie „ukończona”, jak i otwarta na przyszłość chrześcijańskiej egzystencji? W postmodernistycznej erze płynności i mieszania się okresów rozwojowych życia człowieka katechetyczna opieka duszpasterska powinna ulec transformacji, oferując wiele nowych sposobów do przygotowania się na przyjęcie sakramentów, ponieważ można być ochrzczonym i otrzymać sakrament bierzmowania w każdym okresie życia. Transformacja ta dokonuje się wówczas, gdy każda sakramentalna droga i całe życie staną się nieustanną drogą (neo-)katechumenalną, w której pierwsze i wtórne głoszenie kerygmatu jest za każdym razem wznawiane i pogłębiane. Dzieje się tak, ponieważ zgodnie z celem eschatologicznym możliwe momenty duchowej dojrzałości są liczne w życiu, a pedagogika ciągłego wtajemniczania prowadzi do dojrzewania, którego nigdy nie osiągnie się w pełni. Comment faire droit à la double dimension de l’initiation chrétienne à la fois close lorsqu’elle est « achevée » et ouverte sur l’avenir de l’existence chrétienne ? Dans notre époque postmoderne de fluidité et de brouillage des âges de la vie, la pastorale catéchétique est invitée à se transformer en offrant de multiples portes d’entrée pour la préparation aux sacrements, puisqu’on peut être baptisé et confirmé à tout âge ; en faisant de chaque parcours sacramentel et de l’existence tout entière un cheminement sans cesse (néo-)catéchuménal où la première-seconde annonce kérygmatique est à chaque fois reprise et approfondie. Car selon une visée eschatologique, les moments possibles de maturité spirituelle sont nombreux dans une vie et la pédagogie d’initiation permanente conduit à une maturation jamais pleinement accomplie.
