Gabriel Iulian ROBU: Status naturae lapsae simul et redemptae (Gen 3) in Man and Woman He Created Them: A Theology of the Body by John Paul II

In this article, my intention has been to emphasize the role of the postlapsarian protology (Gen 3) in the anthropology enlightened by the mystery of Christ (status lapsae simul et redemptae). I considered the disastrous consequences of original sin, the perspective of death, the appearance of shame, the change in the meaning of nakedness – a change generated by the triple concupiscence in the human heart, the deformation of the spousal meaning of the human body and the disorder produced in the communio personarum, as they are presented in the catecheses of Man and Woman He Created Them: A Theology of the Body by John Paul II. Finally, from the perspective of the protoevangelium (cf. Gen 3:15), I examined protology and anthropology in the light of Christology, because in Christ it has been historically manifested and eminently revealed who man is and what is his fulfillment.

Le scelte pastorali del cardinale Carlo Maria Martini perché la Chiesa fosse in ascolto della parola di Dio
Lo studio presenta un panorama sulle scelte pastorali del cardinale Carlo Maria Martini. La Parola di Dio ha guidato la predicazione e l’azione pastorale di Martini; egli proponeva cinque parole fondamentali come guida irrinunciabile per la vita della comunità cristiana: il silenzio, la Parola di Dio, l’Eucaristia, la missione e la carità. Dopo quindici anni di servizio episcopale, al termine del Sinodo diocesano 47°, il cardinale sintetizzava il compito della Chiesa per mezzo del verbo “evangelizzare”. La missione della Chiesa è comunicare il Vangelo.

Der Beitrag der Theologie in einem säkularisierten Europa

L’articolo presente mira a sottolineare il contributo della teologia in un Europa secolarizzata. La scienza teologica conserva il suo ruolo nella società, illuminanando il mistero dell’uomo e della vita. La teologia dialoga con le altre scienze nelle Università per acrescere il sapere umano. Ma, la teologia rivela la sua importanza nelle risposte che offre sul senso della vita. Nello stesso tempo, la teologia risponde alle ardue domane sul futuro dell’Europa e del mondo.

The interpretation of the status naturae integrae (gen 1-2) within the adequate anthropology of John Paul II

In this article, my aim has been to emphasize the role played by Gen 1-2 (status naturae integrae) in the theological anthropology of John Paul II. I have attempted to present the relevance of the Elohist and Jahwist traditions about man’s creation for anthropology, emphasising the transition from the original solitude of Adam to the interpersonal communion that reflects the image of God’s Trinity. I also speak of the meaning of original nakedness, of the original unity and of the spousal features of the human body in the sphere of the hermeneutics of gift. I has aimed to show that for Pope John Paul II and Pope Francis, man is a gift and in order to be happy, he/she must become a gift for others. In a hermeneutical context in which everything is a gift of God, including both time and space, man cannot find himself and his fulfillment unless he becomes a gift. The hermeneutics of the gift is one of the many common points addressed by Saint John Paul II and Pope Francis. The abundance with which the two Pontiffs use the term “gift” and the importance they award to this key concept leads us to the conclusion that, according to the recent Magisterium of the Church, the hermeneutics of the gift is itself a gift and a light for the Christian families in the third millennium.

Der im sittlichen sozial bestimmte und bestimmende Mensch

Die Frage nach der moralischen Kompetenz bezieht sich nicht nur auf das Wissen und Wollen hinsichtlich eines sittlichen Aktes, sondern ausdrücklich auch auf das konkrete Können der moralischen Fähigkeit des Menschen. So ist davon auszugehen, dass die sittliche Fähigkeit der menschlichen Personen im Bereich der sozialen Metanoia ihre allgemeine Kompetenz im Sittlichen impliziert. Die moralische Kompetenz wird nicht angeboren, sondern sie wird durch Vermitteln und Lehren erworben, wobei zwei fundamentale Aspekte innerhalb einer moralischen Entwicklung hervorzuheben sind: Der heran-wachsende Mensch wird in seiner Sittlichkeit durch die soziale Mit- und Umwelt bestimmt, gleichzeitig bestimmt er selbst diesen Prozess durch personale Partizipation an der moralischen Entfaltung seiner eigenen Anlagen. In diesem Sinne soll im vorliegenden Artikel die Rede vom im Sittlichen sozial bestimmten und bestimmenden Menschen sein.
