He distinguished between dogmatic and ascetic statements. The first concerns classic pneumatological themes, such as: the deity of the Holy Spirit, action in Christ and with Christ, action in the Church and in an individual person, through the sacraments, especially through the sacrament of baptism. In ascetic statements, the author showed the action of the Holy Spirit as the Creator of the gift of faith and love, the Giver of seven gifts, the Architect of man’s spiritual attitudes, and the Inspirer of prayer. It is probably not a complete textbook of pneumatology, but its classic elements are visible. 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11320/13600 Tytuł: Biblia o raju, pokusie i grzechu pierworodnym Autorzy: Wajda, Anna Maria Abstrakt: The Christian doctrine of original sin has its basis in the Bible. The human condition (suffering, death, and a universal tendency toward sin) is accounted for by the story of the fall of Adam and Eve in the early chapters of the book of Genesis. Before that first sin man was in harmony with God, with himself, and with all creation. His state was characterized by primal innocence. Happiness of man in paradise is described through images: garden of Eden, the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and nudity without shame. Conditions of life in paradise were unusually favourable. This resulted from the kindness of the Creator towards man. Man also had duties in paradise. They were contained in God’s commandment (Gen 2,16-17). Disobedience to this commandment caused the whole of human history to be marked by the original sin freely committed by our first parents. The tale unfolds in Gen 2,4b – 3,24. The apparent naivete of the style of myth disguises the richness of theological reflection from which theologians constantly draw. The inspired author describes here God’s relations with men not in abstract theological jargon, but in simple vocabulary and pictures. 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11320/13599 Tytuł: Stworzenie świata w wybranych pismach Ojców Kapadockich Autorzy: Strękowski, Stanisław Abstrakt: The creation of the world was a highly debated topic in the first centuries of Christianity with the advent of many attempts to synthesize the views of Greek philosophers on cosmogenesis with the biblical tradition. In the fourth century, theological controversy arose which, as in the case of Arius and his followers, treated the Son as a creature, the most perfect indeed, but a creature that did not have the same dignity and majesty as the Father. To the treatise of St. Basil on the six days of creation (Hexaemeron), St. Gregory of Nyssa responds with his own treatise De opificio hominis. Where the deceased brother ends his series of homilies, Gregory of Nyssa begins his interpretation. It was written probably in the years 380-381, so after the death of the Bishop of Caesarea. Most likely, it was intended as a defense, but also as a correction to the more famous homilies on the history of the creation of the world, presented in the first chapter of the Book of Genesis. At the same time, the treatise of St. Gregory of Nyssa contains his own observations on the text of Genesis, which reflect his deep desire to show the coherence between Scripture and the philosophy of his time. 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z http://hdl.handle.net/11320/13598 Tytuł: Benedykta XVI perspektywa dialogu miłości Stwórcy ze stworzeniem Autorzy: Proniewski, Andrzej Abstrakt: Man was created by God in the image of God (Gen 1,27) in a dialogue of love. The article, edited on the basis of the sources of Benedict XVI’s theology of creation, treats as the subject of analysis the qualitative interpretation of love revealed by God in the act of creation and present in the history of mankind with the passage of time until the fulfillment of the history of the world. God’s activity cannot be enclosed in the clasp of human logic, because mercy is its content. Man called by God to communion with Him is surrounded by caring merciful love that does not deprive him of freedom and decisions that do not always correspond to God’s logic. Pope Benedict XVI reveals God as creator consistently responsible for the gift of human life formed in love and oriented towards existential fulfillment by man. At the same time, he draws attention to the need, which created man must be guided by, to discover His presence in human existence with the commitment of man’s own free will. God’s love is the source of continual transformation into His image, to finally become one with Him. Man’s acknowledgment of this Truth and adherence to it with mind and heart is a guarantee of the realization of God’s plan of love. 2021-01-01T00:00:00Z
