1	Charismatic Christ, Charismatic Church: The Development of the Gratia Gratis Data in Thomas Aquinas’s Theology in Light of the Summa Halensis Kern, John Robert January 2022 (has links) Thesis advisor: Boyd Taylor Coolman / This dissertation investigates Thomas Aquinas’s understanding of the charisms (gratiae gratis datae) as distinctly social or ecclesial graces in light of his critical engagement with the Franciscan Summa Halensis. It first looks at the Summa Halensis’s christology and theology of the charisms to show the theological inseparability of charismatic grace from the threefold grace of Christ (the grace of union, capital grace, and the grace of the singular man). I then trace the development of Aquinas’s understanding of Christ’s humanity (in terms of the grace of Christ’s humanity) as a conjoined instrument of the Word and show how at every step Aquinas critically engaged the christology of the Summa Halensis. I bring that historical development in christology and its application to the sacraments to bear on Aquinas’s understanding of the charisms as social or ecclesial graces, graces given to one person for the sake of another’s salvation. Instrumental causality provided Aquinas a new conceptual framework with which to understand what it might mean for the charisms to be social graces, placing the charisms within a wider array of created causal agents in the economy of grace. I place this development within the context of the rise of Joachite prophecy as well as the secular/mendicant conflict at Paris, factors that motivated Aquinas to conceive these graces as distinctly mendicant charisms. Just as the development of instrumental causality in Christology propelled Aquinas’s understanding of charisms as social graces, so this application of instrumental causality reciprocally informed Aquinas’s account of the charismatic Christ in the Tertia Pars of the Summa Theologiae. / Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2022. / Submitted to: Boston College.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Alexandre Baylão.pdf: 967041 bytes, checksum: 21039e0c90884159c947110b8da78216 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-03-22 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / The pneumatology in the thought of Yves Congar is reflected and produced under the essential test of experience and communion. Through the God’s experience that humanity has developed its theological reflection and sensed the nuances of self-revelation of God to all his work created and could discern what paths to be followed in relation to God, the cosmos and the human being. It was by the God’s experience that humanity approached the sacred and had communion with him. It could recognize God in its divine persons and worship him through Church sprouted of the decisive event of the Incarnation of the Word and his resurrection, from which it was given to mankind the grace of the Holy Spirit. But it was already present with mankind since the creation of the lines of the story. The Holy Spirit is the love of God manifested as mother love, protects, nurtures, corrects, unites and strengthens with his gifts and charisms. He is one for which, in the exercise of his mission, Christ and the kingdom of God come into the world. Mission is fulfilled in and through the Church, the Mystical Body of Christ, being the Holy Spirit its foundation of communion, catholicity and holiness. The Holy Spirit was present in history, of humanity and of the Church in its great moments of transformation, conduting and inspiring his footsteps. However, the experience lacks interpretation, and in the historical process the communion was, sometimes, undone, and the Holy Spirit was also praised by some and forgotten by others, in this case the Church of Christ, was closed to the Holy Spirit. In the second Vatican Council happened the latest historical re-opening of the Church to the Holy Spirit. Overcoming hierarchism in it installed, says Congar / A pneumatologia no pensamento de Yves Congar é refletida e produzida sob o crivo indispensável da experiência e da comunhão. Através da experiência de Deus que a humanidade elaborou sua reflexão teológica e intuiu os nuances da auto-revelação de Deus a toda sua obra criada e pôde discernir quais os caminhos a serem seguidos na relação com Deus, com o cosmo e com o ser humano. Foi pela experiência de Deus que a humanidade aproximou-se do sagrado e teve comunhão com ele. Pôde reconhecer Deus em suas Pessoas Divinas e prestar culto a ele através da Igreja brotada do evento decisivo da Encarnação do Verbo e sua ressurreição, de onde foi dada à humanidade a graça do Espírito Santo. Mas ele já estava presente com a humanidade desde a criação nas entrelinhas da história. O Espírito Santo é o amor de Deus que se manifesta como amor de mãe, protege, nutre, corrige, une e fortalece com seus dons e carismas. Ele é aquele pelo qual, no exercício de sua missão, Cristo e o Reino de Deus chegam ao mundo. Missão que se cumpre na e pela Igreja, Corpo Místico de Cristo, sendo o Espírito Santo seu fundamento de comunhão, catolicidade e santidade. O Espírito Santo esteve presente na história, da humanidade e da Igreja, em seus grandes momentos de transformação, conduzindo e inspirando seus passos. Entretanto, a experiência carece de interpretação, e no processo histórico a comunhão foi por vezes desfeita, e o Espírito Santo foi exaltado por uns e também esquecido por outros, nestes casos a Igreja de Cristo, se fechou ao Espírito Santo. No Concílio Vaticano II houve a mais recente reabertura histórica da Igreja ao Espírito Santo. Superando o hierarquismo nela instalado, afirma Congar. Aberta ao Espírito Santo e sob sua inspiração, a Igreja pôde dar mais e novos frutos de diálogo, comunhão e santidade que favorecem o cumprimento de sua missão como Igreja evangelizadora e profética no mundo Yves Congar Espírito Santo Pneumatologia Holy Spirit Pneumatology Gifts and charisms CNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::TEOLOGIA
3	Os dons do espírito: o fenômeno do carismático em Corinto e no nosso contexto eclesial Maria Lucena Feil 05 July 2012 (has links) Corinto, a terceira maior cidade do Império Romano, era constituída por muitos povos, culturas, filosofias, religiões, estilos de vida, e reconhecida como a mais helenista das cidades do NT. Era uma cidade cosmopolita mediada pela elite, dominada pelo poder estrangeiro, intelectualmente viva, materialmente próspera e moralmente corrupta. O ideal dos coríntios era o desenvolvimento do indivíduo. A cidade, reconstruída em 44 a C, foi repovoada por veteranos, pessoas de classes mais baixas, libertos vindos de Roma, deserdados romanos, escravos, apartados das comunidades de apoio e das suas tradições que constituíam suas identidades. O sistema dominante era o patronato escravagista. Corinto era submetida a Roma e tinha o latim como língua oficial. Nela se consolidaram os cultos mistéricos. A comunidade cristã de Corinto contrapõe-se ao contexto como sociedade alternativa. Os dons e carismas do Espírito tornam-se a discussão fundamental, conforme 1Cor 12-14. Paulo põe-se em defesa dos carismas da edificação e submete os demais dons à agape. O Deus Uno e Trino constitui a fundamento dos carismas, que na unidade do seu ser age e distribui a diversidade de carismas e dons, afim de suprir as necessidades do povo de Deus. Os fenômenos carismáticos / pentecostais testemunham as guerras, as migrações em massa, as calamidades, as mudanças sociais, filosóficas e teológicas, os contextos históricos que implicam profundas mudanças no ser e na comunidade humana. O êxtase marca a história ao longo dos séculos, sendo também uma das expressões do catolicismo atual, das igrejas históricas, bem como a diversidade de igrejas pentecostais e enfoques teológicos. / Corinth, the third largest city of the Roman Empire, was constituted by many peoples, cultures, philosophies, religions, lifestyles, and known as the most Hellenistic cities of the NT. It was a cosmopolitan city mediated by the elite, dominated by foreign powers, intellectually alive, materially prosperous and morally corrupt. The ideal of the Corinthians was the development of the individual. The city reconstructed in the 44th C, was populated by veterans, people of lower social classes, freed from Rome, disinherited Roman slaves, apart from supportive communities and traditions that constitute their identities. The patronage was the dominant system of slavery. Corinth was submitted to Rome and had Latin as official language. It was consolidated the mystery cults. The Christian community in Corinth opposed to the context as an alternative society. The gifts and charisms of the Spirit become a fundamental discussion, as 1 Cor 12-14. Paul points out in defense of the charisms of the building and submit the other gifts to the agape. The Triune God is the foundation of the charisms which the unity of his acts and be distributes a diversity of charisms and gifts in order to meet the needs of the people of God. The phenomena charismatic / Pentecostal witness wars, mass migrations, natural disasters and the social, philosophical and theological, historical contexts that involve profound changes in the being and the human community. The ecstasy marks the history over the centuries and is also one of the expressions of Catholicism today, the historic churches, as well as the diversity of Pentecostal churches and theological approaches.

4	Charismatic and Pastoral Power: A Foucauldian Analysis of the CDF Investigation of Leonardo Boff Brodrick, Robert J. January 2018 (has links) Thesis advisor: Richard R. Gaillardetz / The following dissertation argues that the relations of power operative in the investigation and silencing of Fr. Leonardo Boff, O.F.M. by the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith (CDF) can be adequately understood through the application of a model derived from the works of Michel Foucault. Drawing on the affirmation of the Second Vatican Council that the Catholic Church receives both charismatic and hierarchical gifts, the basis of this model is two elementary forms of power: charismatic power and pastoral power. The category of pastoral power includes, but goes beyond, the traditional ecclesiological concepts of office, law, hierarchy, or institution and includes all forms of ministries and modes of service set over the good of each and all members of the faithful. In order to accomplish this broader task, Foucault’s distinction between sovereignty, discipline, and governmentality are employed as three strategic logics of the Christian pastorate. Charismatic power is then understood as the free gifts of the Holy Spirit that uplift and perfect the talents of each member of the faithful in order to participate in the loving service of the church’s mission in dialogical relation to each respective strategy of pastoral power. In order to defend the claim that each of these strategic relations of power can be observed in the Boff case, this dissertation offers a historical review of the theological concepts entailed therein, genealogical analyses of the discursive and non-discursive practices carried out by both Boff and the CDF, and an explication of Foucault’s thought on power relations. This dissertation concludes with an interpretation of the Boff case that shows how the fundamental arguments of both parties are theologically sound, although with respect to different strategic logics. The conclusion also offers a preliminary outline for a generalized theology of power in the Catholic Church based on the lessons learned from this particular case study. / Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2018. / Submitted to: Boston College.

5	Charismen Entdecken: Eine praktisch-theologische Untersuchung in der Evangelischen Landeskirche in Baden / Discovering Chrismata : a practical theological inquiry in the United Lutheran Church of Baden Baumert, Manfred Otto Willi 03 1900 (has links) Summary and key words in German and English / Every church faces the challenge of procuring capable workers for the multifaceted task of ministry. For several decades now official denominational statements and the discipline of Practical Theology have been calling for a new understanding of giftedness in ecclesial service. As yet little fundamental research has been done in this area. This dissertation seeks to make a contribution both empirically and theologically. It marks the first time in the German–speaking world of Practical Theology that the issue of how one discovers charisms is addressed academically. The specific field of research is located in the Protestant Regional Church of Baden in southwest Germany. Nevertheless the findings can be applied more broadly since the research is based on thorough exegetical and systematic–theological analysis and has been verified empirically. There has been a quest for the charisms of the Spirit since the beginning of the twentieth century and even more so now in the face of the societal challenges of postmodernity. In the discussion of the different theological positionens arise as result that charisms have to be seen with an triune approach. In addtion, besindes the fact that charisms have a habitual meaning, they first of all have a relational dimension. The empirical research involved online–interviewings of pastors, plus interviews of church members. One of the major findings was that the views of pastors on how church members receive gifts is determined by their theological understanding of the charisms. Pastors discover gifts, not according to Pauline criteria, but largely according to emotional aspects, as proved by this research. It became apparent that protestant pastors are of the opinion that New Testament charisms are not first received at baptism, but already at birth. Another interesting finding is that members of both protestant main stream churches and pentacostal-charismatic churches hold the same believes about how to receive charisms. The only difference is their repertoire of gifts. This dissertation focuses on developing guidelines for the discovery of charisms within the congregation as the local body of the Church. / Fähige Mitarbeiter für eine vielgestaltige Gemeindearbeit zu finden, ist in jeder Kirche eine bleibende Aufgabe und Herausforderung. Seit einigen Jahrzehnten wird in kirchlichen Verlautbarungen und in der Praktischen Theologie verstärkt das Konzept einer gabenorientierten Mitarbeit betont. Dieses Feld ist noch wenig grundsätzlich erforscht. Die vorliegende Arbeit greift empirisch und theologisch in die aktuelle Diskussion ein. Innerhalb der Praktischen Theologie im deutschsprachigen Raum liegt mit ihr zum ersten Mal eine wissenschaftliche Untersuchung zur Frage vor, wie Charismen im Forschungsfeld der Evangelischen Landeskirche in Baden entdeckt werden. Die Ergebnisse reichen aber weit über diesen Rahmen hinaus und können grundsätzlich gelten, weil sie auf dem Hintergrund exegetischer und systematisch-theologischer Grundlagenarbeit in einer sorgfältigen empirischen Methodik erhoben, reflektiert und ausgewertet wurden. Die Ausführungen zeigen, dass die Suche nach Charismen seit Beginn des 20. Jh. angesichts der gesellschaftlichen Umbrüche im Kontext der Postmoderne zu einem großen Thema geworden ist. Aus den theologischen Positionen erwuchs die wesentliche Einsicht, dass Charismen trinitarisch einzuordnen sind und neben dem habituellen Charismenverständnis vor allem die relationale Dimension vorliegt. Die empirische Forschungsarbeit umfasst eine Online-Befragung von Pfarrern, ergänzend dazu wurden Gemeindeglieder interviewt. Als eines der Hauptergebnisse stellte sich heraus, dass die Meinung der Pfarrer, wie Gemeindeglieder Gaben empfangen, durch ihr theologisches Gabenverständnis bestimmt wird. Wie Pfarrer Gaben entdecken, richtet sich weithin nicht nach den paulinischen Kriterien, sondern nach emotionalen Gesichtspunkten, wie in der vorliegenden Arbeit nachgewiesen werden konnte. Wie sich herausstellte, sind Pfarrer der Überzeugung, dass neutestamentliche Gaben nicht erst bei der Taufe empfangen werden, sondern mit der biologischen Geburt. Ein weiterer interessanter Aspekt belegt, dass Gemeindeglieder der evangelischen Landeskirche im Vergleich zu charismatisch-pentekostalen Gemeindegliedern Gaben nach ihren subjektiven Glaubensüberzeugungen in derselben Weise empfangen, lediglich das Gabenrepertoire unterscheidet sich. Die vorliegende Arbeit zielt darauf ab, Leitlinien zum Entdecken von Charismen im Kontext der lokalen Gemeinde zu entwickeln. / Practical Theology / Thesis (D. Th.
