vol. 11 Dietrich Bonhoeffer na 500 lat Reformacji
89-100
EN
In this article Bogdan Ferdek examines the historical and theological similarities between the eschatology of Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Romano Guardini. These thinkers shared more than their ties to Wroclaw (Breslau) and Berlin, or the fact that both were barred from lecturing in Germany during the Third Reich. Both men reinterpreted eschatology Christologically; for them, the only truly last thing is Jesus Christ. As a result, their eschatology rings in clear harmony, declaring that Protestants and Catholics share a common hope, the fulfillment of which lies beyond the tragic barrier of biological death. For Bonhoeffer, Guardini, and indeed all Christians, the only Eschaton is Jesus Christ, through whom God has inaugurated the new creation.

Böhm’s mysticism aroused the opposition of orthodox Lutheranism. Evangelical parish priest of the Peter and Paul church in Görlitz Gregorius Richter suspect a heresy in Aurora and threate- ned Böhm with banishment. Numerous Aurora texts indicate that Böhme took into account the four principles of the Reformation. Böhm’s Aurora contains the reformational principle the grace itself and the anthropology implied by it, about the non-free will of human being. While in Luther thoughts were dominated by the functional Christology, in the Böhme’s – essential Christology. The essence of this Christology is to call Christ Aurora. From the essential Christology, Böhme, however, derived a functional conclusion, which is the postulate of the following Christ. In contrast to Luther, who focused on the des qua, Böhme focuses primarily on des quae. Although Auroracontains numerous references to the Bible, the very title of Böhme’s most famous work is the result of an experience with a tin vessel. Luther would blame Böhme of illumination, that is, the possibili- ty of an internal, omitting the biblical Word, communicating the Spirit of God with human. Böhme was a theosophist, means either theologian and philosopher, in one person. As a theologian, he drew the knowledge from God’s revelation, and as a philosopher he perceived the traces of God in the world. He had a premonition that reason and faith can not contradict themselves, because ultimately they have a common source in God.

The Declaration on the Doctrine of Justifi cation - 20 Years Later

Wspólna deklaracja o usprawiedliwieniu jest największym osiągnięciem w katolicko-luterańskim dialogu teologicznym. W związku z 20. rocznicą podpisania Wspólnej deklaracji zostały przypomniane krytyczne punkty tego dokumentu. Przełomowy dla relacji ewangelicko-katolickich dokument zasługuje jednak na coś zdecydowanie więcej niż przypomnienie, a mianowicie wciąż powinna się dokonywać jego recepcja. Brak recepcji Wspólnej deklaracji byłby krokiem wstecz na drodze luteranów i katolików od konfliktu do wspólnoty. Dlatego też niniejsze opracowanie wskazuje na wybrane próby recepcji Deklaracji. Zagrożeniem dla Deklaracji jest nie tylko brak recepcji, lecz może nim być również kontekst ponowoczesności. Polscy teologowie katoliccy podjęli zadanie recepcji Wspólnej deklaracji, choć nie zostało ono jeszcze ukończone. Niejeden traktat dogmatyki oferuje niezagospodarowane przez naukę o usprawiedliwieniu pola badawcze. W wypełnianiu zadania recepcji Wspólnej deklaracji nie chodzi bynajmniej o reinterpretację całej dogmatyki w świetle nauki o usprawiedliwieniu, lecz o poszerzenie poszczególnych traktatów przez ukazanie ich związku z usprawiedliwieniem. Nauka o usprawiedliwieniu jest niezrozumiała dla wielu współczesnych ludzi, których nie interesuje już pytanie Marcina Lutra: „gdzie znajdę łaskawego Boga?”, czyli usprawiedliwienie grzesznika z łaski. Współczesny człowiek wcale nie uważa się za grzesznika, lecz za ofiarę różnych układów, i dlatego odwraca problem: to Bóg, a nie człowiek, potrzebuje usprawiedliwienia, np. Bóg powinien usprawiedliwić się przed ludźmi z tego, że dopuścił Auschwitz. O ile na gruncie teologii można spotkać odwrócenie perspektyw w rozumieniu usprawiedliwienia, o tyle poza teologią pojęcia, którymi operuje Wspólna deklaracja nie należą już do słownika współczesnego człowieka. Dotyczy to przede wszystkim takich pojęć jak: łaska, grzech i usprawiedliwienie. Ewentualnie można zauważyć reinterpretację tych pojęć w duchu głębokiej ekologii propagowanej przez ruch New Age.

The Joint Declaration on Justification is the greatest achievement in the Catholic-Lutheran theological dialogue. In connection with the 20th anniversary of the signing of the Joint Declaration, the critical points of this document will be recalled. However, the document deserves much more than a reminder: its reception should continue. The lack of reception of the Joint Declaration would be a step backwards for Lutherans and Catholics on their way from conflict to community. Therefore, this paper will indicate the selected attempts of the reception of the Declaration. A threat to the Declaration would be not only the lack of reception, but also the context of post-modernity. Polish Catholic theologians have undertaken the task of reception of the Joint Declaration, and so it is in progress. Many treaties of dogmatic theology have room for the doctrine of justification. The task of the reception of the Joint Declaration it is not a matter of reinterpreting the whole of dogmatic theology in the light of the doctrine of justification, but of broadening individual treaties by showing their connection with justification. The teaching of justification is incomprehensible to many contemporary people, who are no longer interested in Martin Luther’s question, “where will I find a gracious God?”, that is, where will I find justification of a sinner by grace. The contemporary man does not consider himself to be a sinner at all, but a victim of various circumstances, and therefore, he seems to be reversing the problem: it is God, and not man, who needs justification, e.g. God should justify Himself before people because He allowed Auschwitz. While in the field of theology we find this reversal of the understanding of justification, outside theology, the terms used in the Joint Declaration no longer belong to the idiolect of the contemporary man. This applies above all to such terms as grace, sin and justification. Instead, we are witnessing a reinterpretation of these terms in the spirit of deep ecology promoted by the New Age movement.

The Mystery of the Immaculate Conception in Mariology of bl. John H. New- man

The truth of the Immaculate Conception was the focal point of Newman’s teaching on our Lady. It was a fitting preparation for her who was to be the Mother of God Incarnate. From her divine Motherhood flow all her other privileges. The point that seemed to Newman to be conclud sive in proving the Immaculate Conception of Mary was that it flows as on immediate interence from that other doctrine of Mary being the Second Eve. She was a child of Adam and Eve as they had never fallen. She inherited the graces which Adam and Eve possessed in Paradise. Catholic belief in the Immaculate Conception is only a natural corollary to the more fundamental truth of the Divine Maternity.

Spór o nieomylność papieża - od Haec sancta do Pastor aeternus

The decree Haec Sancta approved by the Council of Constance at its 5th Session (6th April 1415) helped the Council fathers to put an end to the scandalous schism which since 1378 had divided the Latin Church between rival lines of claimants to the papal office. The Council of Constance declared for the superiority of the Council over the Pope. In Gallicanism the theory      of the superiority of a General Council lived on for hundreds of years. The great body of the bishops of the nineteenth century had little sympathy with Gallican principles, which disappeared entirely after the definition of Papal Infallibility at the First Vatican Council in 1870. There are several requirements for a dogmatic, papal infallible pronouncement: (1) The pronouncement must be made by the lawful successor to Peter. (2) The subject matter must be in the area of faith and morals. (3) The pope must be speaking ex cathedra, that is from the very seat and office of Peter. In this way he must be specifically intending to proclaim a doctrine, binding the entire Church to its assent. If one or more of these elements is missing, there is no infallible  pronouncement.

Dar nieomylności. Od Pastor aeternus do Sensus fidei

Second Vatican Council took over from the first Vatican Council the doctrine on infallible teaching of the Bishop of Rome, approved it and presented in more complete context. It is the teaching of Dogmatic Constitution on the Church Lumen gentium on infallibility of bishops when together with the pope they exercise the Church's Magisterium, and on supernatural sense of faith of all people, thanks to which they cannot get lost in faith. International Theological Commission issued “Sensus fidei” in the life of the Church, a document which deals with the issue of supernatural sense of faith of all people of God. This document presents sufficient theology of sensus fidei and therefore it is possible to attempt to place the dogma about the pope’s infallibility into more complete context which sensus fidei is a part of. Three carriers of infallibility in the Church: the pope, the college of bishops and sensus fidei are complementary to one another when it comes to explanation and defence of the divine Revelation. None of them can form anything new in relation to the Revelation. All together serve infallibility given to the Church by the Spirit of Truth.

„Wiara i poszukiwanie Boga". Lumen fidei w perspektywie teologii religii

Lumen Fidei (The Light of Faith) is intended as the guiding magisterial document for the Year of Faith. Faith is the gateway to salvation. To reach eternal salvation, it is necessary: to have been baptized sacramentally; and to die sincerely professing the Catholic faith. A U.S. Jesuit priest, poet, lyricist, and essayist Leonard Edward Feeney (1897-1978) articulated and defended a strict interpretation of the Roman Catholic doctrine, extra Ecclesiam nulla salus (outside the Church there is no salvation). He took the position that baptism of blood and baptism of desire are unavailing and that therefore no non-Catholics will be saved. Fighting against what he perceived to be the liberalization of Catholic doctrine, he came under ecclesiastical censure. The Vatican’s Holy Office rejected his restrictive view by distinguishing between those who really belong to the Church (in re) and those who belong by desire (in voto). The desire would be explicit in those who were catechumens and implicit in those people of goodwill who would join the Church if they knew it to be the one true Church of Christ. St. Augustine also distinguishes between the sacrament of baptism and the turning of the heart to God. He teaches that if either of these conditions cannot be secured, the other will be sufficient. A baptized child is saved without turning its heart to God, should it die before coming to the age of reason, and a man who turns his heart to God is saved without water baptism, provided he in no way despises the sacrament. St. Thomas states, „some have received the invisible sanctification without visible sacraments, and to their profit; but though it is possible to have the visible sanctification, consisting in a visible sacrament, without the invisible sanctification, it will be to no profit”. The encyclical Lumen Fidei presents faith as a light that dispels the darkness and illuminates the way which is the human being. Respecting the religious sensibility of searchers who lack explicit faith, the letter recognizes that “Religious man strives to see signs of God, in the daily experiences of life, in the cycle of the seasons, in the fruitfulness of the earth and in the movement of the cosmos” (no. 35). It continues, “To the extent that they are sincerely open to love and set out with whatever light they can find, the popes tell us, “[searchers] are already, even without knowing it, on the path leading to faith.” The light of faith in Jesus illumines the path of seekers. Letter to the Hebrews speaks about Enoch and Abel who believed in God before Abraham. Christ is the concentration of light of God, who illumines every human experience and journey of man to God.

In the opinion of Bogdan Ferdek, the new book of Agnieszka Łoza and Paweł Beyga is a special theological report on the state of the Church in Poland. During the pandemic time since 2021 the Catholic Church has had to search for solving problems in the Christian community. According to the authors of this new book, in the Polish Catholic Church two kinds of problems can be discovered. Firstly, there is a problem with morality among the clergy, the problems of sexual abuse and teaching the Catholic religion in Polish schools. Conversely, there is a problem related to the secularization of Polish people. Bogdan Ferdek in his review showed that the new book of two young Polish theologians is an answer to very important questions in the Polish Christendom in the time of the pandemic.

Międzynarodowa Komisja Wspólna ds. Dialogu między Kościołem Rzymskokatolickim a Cerkwią Prawosławną prowadzi dialog poświęcony prymatowi papieskiemu. Aktualny stan dialogu na temat prymatu oddaje dokument z Rawenny: Ecclesiological and Canonical Consequences of the Sacramental Nature of the Church. Ecclesial Communion, Conciliarity and Authority. Soborowość i prymat w Kościele znajdują najgłębsze uzasadnienie w najważniejszym chrześcijańskim dogmacie o Trójcy Świętej. Dla teologii wschodniej i zachodniej Kościół jest bowiem ikoną Trójcy Świętej. Dlatego też refleksja nad nim musi wychodzić od dogmatu o Trójcy Świętej. Na dokument z Rawenny trzeba spojrzeć w świetle wschodniego modelu Trójcy Świętej. Według niego wśród równych sobie osób boskich osoba Ojca jest protos. Dwie pozostałe osoby są określane w kontekście ich związku z Ojcem: Syn został zrodzony przez Ojca, Duch od Ojca pochodzi. Skoro Kościół jest obrazem boskich osób, z których pierwsza jest protos, to musi w nim być miejsce na owo protos. Jednak w Trójcy Świętej wszystkie trzy osoby działają razem i jest w Nim coś, co koresponduje z pojęciem „soborowość". Skoro więc Kościół jest obrazem konsyliarnego Boga, to do jego istoty należy również soborowość. Kościół będący ikoną Trójcy Świętej musi być równocześnie Kościołem soborowym i Kościołem mającym protos. Soborowość i protos muszą być widoczne na wszystkich płaszczyznach Kościoła: lokalnej, regionalnej i uniwersalnej. Na płaszczyźnie uniwersalnej jest zatem miejsce na prymat Biskupa Rzymu, który powinien być jednak zreinterpretowany w duchu starożytnego Kościoła. Reinterpretacja prymatu biskupa Rzymu mogłaby się dokonać analogicznie do korekty materii sakramentu święceń dokonanej przez Piusa XII w Sacra- mentum ordinis z 1947 roku. Sobór we Florencji w Dekrecie dla Ormian z 1439 roku określił, że istotnym elementem udzielania święceń jest podanie kielicha z winem i pateny z chlebem. Natomiast Pius XII uznał za materię sakramentu święceń włożenie rąk. Równało się to świadomemu powrotowi do tradycji Kościoła starożytnego, a tym samym i Kościoła Wschodu. W ten sposób forma, która w Kościele rzymskim - ale nie w Kościele powszechnym - obowiązywała przez całe wieki, została zniesiona jako partykularna forma Zachodu. Analogicznie można by dokonać korekty zachodniej tradycji prymatu biskupa Rzymu w świetle tradycji Kościoła starożytnego.

Bonhoeffer`s resistance to Nazism flies in the face of the initial successes of the Third Reich. Believing that truth consists of more than the facts, he chose to resist evil rather than negotiate a „non-agression pact” with it. For Bonhoeffer truth is not so much something as it is Someone, i.e. Jesus Christ. Living in the truth thus entails following Jesus. Today the debate over truth has taken a new face. A thoroughgoing relativism, which denies the existence of truth and hence of lies, acknowledges one`s self and one`s desires to be the only measure of things. The fruit of relativism is political correctness, which eliminates certain themes from public discourse in the name of tolerance. The dominant ideology gains control of the media and perhaps the parliament, leading to solutions that infringe on the dignity of human beings. Bonhoffer reminds us that politicians cannot divorce themselves from truth.

Jezus Chrystus jest „Drogą” (J 14,6) i dlatego chrystologia, która chce być dyskursem o Nim, powinna być w drodze − christologia viae. Taka chrystologia chce być równocześnie ortodoksją i ortopraksją. Nie można zatem tylko teoretyzować o Chrystusie, ale równocześnie trzeba żyć Chrystusem. Ponieważ Chrystus jest również „Prawdą” (J 14,6), dlatego życie Chrystusem musi być życiem w „Prawdzie”. Taką chrystologię w drodze tworzył w swoich pismach i równocześnie swoim życiem ewangelicki teolog Dietrich Bonhoeffer. Czy to, że Chrystus jest „Prawdą”, można bardziej odczytać z jego życia niż z jego pism? Jego pisma i życie, które składają się na Bonhoefferowską chrystologię w drodze, zachowują aktualność we współczesnym sporze o prawdę.
