The Book of Jonah is remarkably theocentric. The events underline that JHWH is truly the only God, because he has the power of over natural elements, flora and fauna and destiny of other nations who are subordinate to Him even far from the homeland of the Israelites. JHWH Himself is the origin of all creation and will lead it to its final fulfillment. There are no other gods, and JHWH alone determines what is sinful, and JHWH Himself can show mercy in response to people’s repentance. God thus pictured is the only God, full of mercy. In His infinite mercy, he is not exclusively concerned with the Jewish nation. On the contrary, JHWH sends the Prophet to the pagans and in doing so he offers His mercy and redemption to them, which is undoubtedly extraordinary in the Bible.

This article proposes the thesis that Edith Stein’s late anthropology has a theocentric orientation. The threefold structure of a human being consisting of a body, soul and spirit is examined in order to validate the thesis. First of all, the finitude of a human being points out to the eternal being and – consequently – human beings are not conceivable by themselves, without the context of God. Moreover, the hylomorphic union of the body and soul adopted from Aristotelian and Thomistic philosophy is enriched in Stein’s anthropology by the concept of spirit. This results in a threefold structure and is reason enough to suggest man’s iconic similarity to the Trinity. Furthermore, Stein takes over St. Teresa of Avila’s concept of an internal center of the soul, which can be a meeting point between a person and God. The analysis of the soul’s center supports the main thesis.

This consideration is focused on the salvation meaning of mercy in human life and on the relationship between mercy and social justice. Pope John Paul II in a new way showed the theological, soteriological and anthropological scale of truth in God’s mercy and its existential and social consequences. God, revealed through Jesus Christ, shows himself as a merciful father, who is willing to forgive our sins and share our suffering. God’s mercy promotes mercy in human being too. In this way it turns into an internal strength to fullfill love everyday, which displays itself as moral maturity and apostolate attitude. Mercy protects human dignity and basic equality of all social persons. It amends justice and promotes social developemnt.

Questa riflessione è focalizzata sul significato salvifico della misericordia nella vita umana e sul rapporto tra la misericordia e la giustizia sociale. Il Papa, in modo nuovo, ha presentato la dimensione teologica, soteriologica e antropologica della verità inerente alla misericordia Dio e le sue conseguenze esistenziali e sociali. Dio, rivelato mediante Cristo si presenta come un Padre misericordioso disposto a perdonare i peccati e condividere la sofferenza con l’uomo. La misericordia di Dio fa emergere la misericordia anche nell’uomo, diventando una forza interna per praticare l’amore ogni giorno, che si esprime nella maturità morale e nell’atteggiamento di apostolato. La misericordia salvaguarda la dignità umana e l’uguaglianza fondamentale di tutti i soggetti della vita sociale. Corregge la giustizia, servendo allo sviluppo sociale.

The article analyses the biographical and creative path of Znicz, the Belarusian poet, philosopher and conservatory graduate. His poems consistently express spiritual search, which is characterized by the author’s dominant theocentric worldview (in 1996 Aleh Biembiel took the monastic vows of Zhyrovichy Monastery). Znicz’s poetry continues the excellent tradition of his great predecessors – ascetics and penitents. His poetry reveals the pursuit of reconciliation on the basis of unquestionable millennium-old Christian values with the fundamental values of the nation state, especially within the understanding of the concept of patriotism.

Artykuł wyjaśnia różne spojrzenia na religie świata. Jego głównym celem jest analiza inkluzywizmu religijnego jako najbardziej powszechnego podejścia do innych religii we współczesnej debacie teologicznej nad religiami. Artykuł zwraca szczególną uwagę na rozwój modelu chrystocentrycznego w Kościele katolickim, odnosząc się najpierw do wczesnych ojców Kościoła, a następnie do teologii Logosu. Analiza pokazuje, że teologia Logosu w historii była zawsze obecna w katolickim podejściu do wierzących inaczej obok ekskluzywistycznego aksjomatu extra ecclesiam nulla salus (poza Kościołem nie ma zbawienia). Później ta inkluzywistyczna teologia znalazła swoje zastosowanie w „teorii wypełnienia” Jeana Danielou, w idei „anonimowego chrześcijaństwa” Karla Rahnera, w stanowisku II Soboru Watykańskiego w sprawie innych tradycji religijnych oraz w posoborowym oficjalnym nauczaniu Kościoła. Artykuł kończy się oceną złożoności, wyzwań i nieuniknionych słabych punktów chrystocentrycznego podejścia do innych religii.

The article first explains various perspectives on the world religions. Its main focus is on the inclusivist perspective as the most common approach in the debate on religions. Here special attention is given to the development of the Christocentric model in the Catholic Church referring first to the early Church Fathers and afterwards to Logos theology. The analysis shows that the theology of the Logos was always present in Catholic attitudes towards other believers throughout history alongside the exclusivist axiom extra ecclesiam nulla salus (outside the Church no salvation). Later, this inclusivist theology was echoed in the „fulfilment theory” of Jean Danielou, „anonymous Christianity” of Karl Rahner, the Second Vatican Council’s stand on other faiths, and in the post-conciliar official Church teaching. The article ends with evaluation of the complexity, challenges and unavoidable shortcomings of the Christocentric approach to other religions.

The meeting of the Biblical understanding of God as love and the Christian concept of theocentrism is an original feature of J. Ratzinger/Benedict XVI's theology. The present Pope shows that in fact both these truths: about God as love and about God as the center of any reality, condition each other and explain each other. It is so because God loves as He exists (in relation, One in the Trinity), creates (all the world and man in it) and saves (giving Himself to the world in Christ, in overabundance). At the same time He Himself remains for man, created in His likeness, a model to be imitated and the only just measure of love of relation (fatherhood) and generosity. This is why it is just the theocentric (heading towards God) thought – and only this – that can give hope to the world and satisfy the desires of the human heart; it is only this thought, which is ultimately love that is more powerful than death.
