Den Stoff des Artikels bildet die Frage, wie der hl. Paulus die Lehre der Gotteskindschaft versteht. Der Verfasser stützte sich auf den Text des Galaterbriefes 3, 26-27, und begründet es, dass dieser Text grundlegend für das behandelte Problem ist, während andere Texte des hl. Paulus, die von der Kindschaft Gottes sprechen, nur einige wenige, zum Text des zitierten Galaterbriefes gehörende Aspekte anführen. Den Inhalt der Kindschaft Gottes bilden zwei grundlegende Elemente: der Glaube und die Taufe. Daher ist der ganze Inhalt des Glaubens und der Taufe wesentlicher Inhalt dieser Kindschaft. Der Glaube und die Taufe bilden die Mitwirkung Gottes und des Menschen. Der Glaube, als erste Gabe Gottes, ist die Zusammenfassung der von Gott offenbarten und durch die Apostel gelehrten Wahrheiten, er ist auch die innerliche Disposition des Zuhörers, die ihn zum Annehmen dieser Wahrheiten befähigt und sich mit seiner ganzen Persönlichkeit Gott ergeben lasst. Dieser innere Akt der Gottergebung ist gleichzeitig die Folge des menschlichen Wirkens und wird in ganzer Vollkommenheit durch den Empfang der Taufe geäussert. Die Taufe, als zweite Gabe Gottes, ist das Element, durch welches der Mensch sich mit Gott, dem Vater, Christus und dem Heiligen Geiste verbindet. Mit Gott, dem Vater, ist er verbunden, weil Gott die Liebe zu dem Menschen ist, also die Ursache des Erlösungswerkes Jesu Christi. Mit Christus vereinigt sich der Mensch in der Taufe, als Nachkomme des „zweiten Adams”, mit seinem Tode und seiner Auferstehung verbunden. Mit dem Heiligen Geiste dagegen verbindet sich der Neophyt dadurch, dass der Heilige Geist in der Taufe durch das Einwohnen im Menschen wirkt und ihn mit seinen Gaben beschenkt - mit tieferem Verständniss der Wahrheiten Gottes, mit Kraft und Liebe. Die Verbindung mit Gott, Christus und dem Heiligen Geiste und die innere Umwandlung des Menschen bildet in ihm den neuen Zustand, der alte Sünden hinwegnimmt und von Natur aus verlagt, sie zu meiden und gerechte Taten auszuüben. Ausserdem gibt dieser Zustand das Recht, das künftige ewige Leben zu erben. Der auf diese Weise mit Gott vereinigte Mensch das Gotteskind - bildet eine Einheit mit anderen Menschen - den Kindern Gottes.

The parable of the father and his two sons in the Gospel of Luke (Luke 15:11-32) makes part of a series of parables depicting the attitude of God toward sinful man. It is the attitude of seeking, concern, love, and joy in the presence of which nobody, even the greatest sinner, is excluded. The present article focuses on that attitude by exposing relationships between father and his two sons. Despite the fact that the narrative presents the events from the perspective of the sons, the father can be considered the main character of the parable. The story of the sons shows the drama of father’s love which was rejected and misunderstood by them. Both sons lose their dignity by denying their father’s love, but only the younger seems to realize it. The father shows both of them the same love and assures them that in his eyes they have never lost their sonship and they have never been deprived of it. Each of the children has to be re-adopted; each in his own way indicated by the father. The younger has to accept paternal forgiveness which is full of mercy and joy prompted by his return. The elder, on the other hand, has to imitate the mercy and joy offered by the father to his younger son.

In the second part of her arguing for contemplative listening as a fundamental act of the new evangelization, the author turns to the theological perspective of Jesus Christ as the eternal Listener and, thus, focuses upon his act of listening, which is the unique personal form of his eternal divinity. The author addresses the following issues. Granted that listening has to do with obedient readiness, how can one say it is in the eternalSon, who, being God, would seem to be naturally exempt from obedience? In order to answer this question, the author looks at the Balthasarian “enfleshment” of Thomas’ notion of the divine persons as subsistent relations. In brief, to say that the Son is the subsistent relation of sonship means that the Son receives himself from the Father. But this self-reception implies, the author argues, an obedient readiness. And, since the Son is Word, this obedient readiness translates into a “listening.” The Son is not only the eternal Word. He is also the eternal listener of the Word he is. Within the Godhead, each person is his relation (of “opposition”) to the others and there is no difference between the person and his action. For example, the Son is his relation of sonship to the Father. But, one might ask, how could one speak of the Son’s obedience? How does one avoid subordinationism? The key is to see how the Son’s possession of divinity is compatible with a reception of it. If the Father is the “source and origin of all divinity,” the Son does, in fact, receive his divinity from the Father while, at the same time, he is co-equal and co-eternal with the Father. That the Father generates the Son does not mean, as Arius asserted, that there was a time when the Son was not. Rather, the Son always possesses his divine sonship as being given fromthe Father, while the Father possesses divinity as being given away. Divinity is compatible with relationality in the mode of reception. In the Godhead, reception is perfection. There are a number of texts from Thomas that the author presents in favor of this argument. Having established that reception is perfection in the Godhead, the author develops how this receptivity encompasses obedience and listening. For, in his receiving, the Son performs an act that, by an intrinsic analogy, one may describe as the taking of the gift of the Father into himself. In this sense, the Son is obedient to the “sense” of the Father’s self-gift. But, in the case of the Son, he isthe gift. Not only that, he isthe gift as Word. This suggests, as the author argues, that the obedience that characterizes him as a divine person is something intrinsically analogous to listening. Here, then, we find the ultimate theological reason that we are listeners: we are listeners because we are created on the model of Christ, the eternal Listener.

The annonymous work called The Rule of the Master, in the so-called Thema, contains a commentary to the Lord’s Prayer. The Master, in his interpretion of invocation, touches the Christian doctrine. He analyse adopted sonship, which men is receiving by the Grace of God. This grace is a fruit of salvation given by Christ passover. Every Christian receives this grace in sacrament of baptism. First three request in Lord’s Prayer, although directed to God strictly, also refer to bound between man and Father. These prayers contains double dimension: theo­centric and antropocentric. First, these three request are leading to the God, and from Him, return to man to realize to him the obligations which are connected with the status: the child of God. Four next requests concer the specific needs of man, such as daily food, forgiveness, defense against the devil and temptations. We can not admit, that these four are focusing only on man. We can find in it also a deep theocentric feature. By directing these request to God, says The Master, man expect suport and help.
