More than partnership : a contextual model of an organic-complementary communion in world mission under consideration of kenosisGwinner, Detlef 02 1900 (has links)
With globalization the subject of partnership has become one of the main issues in World Mission. Partnerships are formed in all parts of the world in order to promote collaboration between churches, denominations, and mission organizations. Although good partner relationships are a desired objective, historical prejudices and cultural differences and bias lead to barriers which hinder good partnership relations. How can these barriers be overcome? Christian partnerships are usually only based on a collaboration of the partners and the Christian aspect in a relationship in World Mission is neglected. This study presents a theological basis for a Christian relationship in World Mission, coming from the creation of the human being in the image of God, the communion within the Trinity, especially the concepts of “kenosis” and “koinonia,” and the image of the Body of Christ. A second part of this study researches the historical and sociological aspects of partnership in order to identify barriers for a good partner relationship. The findings of the theological research will then be compared with the outcomes of the historical and sociological study and conclusions for an improvement should be presented. The foundation for mission-church relationship in a global context needs to be a spiritual relationship, since the acting partners come together on a basis of their Christian faith and are part of the universal Body of Christ. The kenotic attitude of the partners plays a major role in their relationship and the proposed model for functioning relationships in World Mission needs to be an organic-complementary communion. The last part then presents a new model for the relationship in World Mission, in which several elements of organic-complementary communion are described. These elements are living together in the Body of Christ, learning together, serving together, suffering and celebrating together, sharing together, working together, and discovering theology together. The study concludes with a proposal of a concept of a “common space” in order to show how such a new model could be lived out in the everyday relationships in World Mission. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / D.

[en] IM-POTENT GOD SUFFERING AND EVIL IN CONFRONTATION WITH THE CROSS / [pt] O DEUS IM-POTENTE O SOFRIMENTO E O MAL EM CONFRONTO COM A CRUZPAULO ROBERTO GOMES VIEIRA 05 January 2004 (has links)
[pt] O sofrimento e o mal levantam uma série de questões sempre
recorrentes. Tratando-se de homens e mulheres no contexto
da mentalidade moderna, surge a indagação: como harmonizar
a afirmação de um Deus Todo-Poderoso com a realidade do
sofrimento e do mal, salvaguardando a autonomia do ser
humano e do mundo? Através de três teólogos contemporâneos,
Andrés Torres Queiruga, Jürgen Moltmann e Jon Sobrino,
buscamos responder a esse questionamento, enfatizando a
contribuição de cada um dos autores estudados, percebendo as
lacunas e debruçando-nos sobre as críticas para completar,
enriquecer e aprofundar suas reflexões. Nosso estudo parte
de uma questão pastoral, refletida de forma teológico-
sistemática, em vista de uma práxis cristã coerente para
erradicar, amenizar e/ou integrar o sofrimento e o mal. / [en] Suffering and evil always raise a series of recurring
questions. In dealing with man and woman, in the context of
modern mentality, there arises an inquiry: how can we
harmonize the affirmation of an All-Mighty God with the
reality of suffering and evil, safeguarding the autonomy of
the human being and the world? In dialogue with three
contemporary theologians, Andrés Torres Queiruga, Jürgen
Moltmann and Jon Sobrino, we try to deal with this
questioning, emphasizing their contributions, detecting
lacunas, and discerning the critiques in order to
complement, enrich and deepen their considerations. Our
study departs from a pastoral question, analyzed in a
systematic-theological way, in order to establish a
coherent Christian praxis which seeks to erradicate, ease
and/or integrate the suffering and evil.
