Hierfür wird zunächst die täuferisch-mennonitische Gemeindearbeit auf ihre zugrundeliegende Theologie und Ekklesiologie untersucht. Als nächstes wendet sich der Fokus dem zweiten Ansatz, der Missionalen Theologie zu. Auch hier wird die zugrundeliegende Theologie und Ekklesiologie untersucht. Die notwendige Zuspitzung erfolgt durch die Eingrenzung auf die Entwicklungen in Deutschland. Nach dieser synchronen Herangehensweise können beide entfalteten theologischen Ansätze miteinander verglichen werden. Anschließend werden praktische Folgerungen gezogen, ob und inwiefern beide theologischen Ansätze miteinander kompartibel sind und welche Integrationsmöglichkeiten lohnenswert erscheinen. Hierbei wird die inhaltliche Nähe beider Ansätze deutlich. Die Missionale Theologie scheint der täuferisch-mennonitischen Gemeindearbeit eine Chance zu bieten, durch Ganzheitlichkeit und Kontextualisierung mehr Relevanz für die Gesellschaft zu entwickeln. / In this research, two theological approaches are examined for commonalities and differences. For this purpose, the Anabaptist-Mennonite church work is first examined for their underlying theology and ecclesiology. Next, the focus turns to the second approach, the missional theology. Again, the underlying theology and ecclesiology is examined. The necessary aggravation is achieved by limiting it to developments in Germany. Following this synchronic approach, both unfolded theological approaches can be compared. Subsequently, practical conclusions are drawn as to whether and to what extent both theological approaches are compatible with each other and which integration options seem worthwhile. The content of both approaches becomes clear. Missionary theology seems to offer Anabaptist-Mennonite church work a chance to develop more relevance for society through holistic and contextualization. / Kolu phando, iindlela ezimbini zakwalizwi ziyavavanywa kwizinto eziqhelekileyo kunye nokwahluka. Ukulungiselela le njongo, umsebenzi wecawe yama-Anabaptist-Mennonite kuqala uvavanyelwa isiseko sabo semfundiso yenkolo kunye ne-ecclesiology. Emva koko, ukugxila kugxila kwindlela yesibini, i-theology yobufundisi. Kwakhona, kuyaxilongwa ubuxhakaxhaka besayensi kunye ne-ecclesiology. Ukongezwa okufanelekileyo kufezekiswa ngokunciphisa umda kuphuhliso lwaseJamani. Ukulandela le ndlela ye-synchronic, zombini iindlela ezingachazwanga zenkolo zingathelekiswa. Emva koko, izigqibo ezisebenzayo ziyatsalwa malunga nokuba ingaba iindlela zombini ezi ndlela zenkolo ziyahambelana kwaye yeyiphi indlela yokudibanisa ebonakala iluncedo.

192	[fr] LE MYSTÈRE DE L INCARNATION DANS LA CHISTOLOGIE DE SAINT GRÉGOIRE DE NYSSE: UNE ÉTUDE SUR LA FILANTHROPÍA DU LOGOS SUR LOGOS KATECHETIKOS (ORATIO CATECHETICA MAGNA) XV / [pt] O MISTÉRIO DA ENCARNAÇÃO NA CRISTOLOGIA DE SÃO GREGÓRIO DE NISSA: UM ESTUDO SOBRE A FILANTHROPÍA DO LOGOS NO LOGOS KATECHETIKOS (ORATIO CATECHETICA MAGNA) XV JÚLIO CESAR ROCHA DOS SANTOS 23 July 2020 (has links) [pt] A presente tese tem por objetivo estudar a filanthropia,a do Logos divino como motivo fundamental do mistério da Encarnação, na obra LOGOS KATECHETIKOS (Oratio Catechetica Magna) de São Gregório de Nissa, escrita no século IV na Capadócia (atual Turquia). Desenvolvido ao longo de quatro capítulos, o autor do presente estudo se propõe a pesquisar, nos dois primeiros, os pressupostos do tema da filanthropia,a do Logos. No terceiro, o estudo do tema se concentra sobre a obra focalizada de Gregório de Nissa, e no quarto, sobre algumas de suas outras obras. Nesse último, se faz referência ao vínculo existente entre a filanthropia,a do Logos, a oikonomia,a salvífica e o mistério da Encarnação. Através de uma metodologia típica da Exegese Patrística, o autor da tese busca secundar suas reflexões com vários exemplos de trechos delas extraídos, comentá-los, e mesmo analisar vocábulos ou expressões da língua original em que foram escritos. Todo esse empenho o conduz a confirmar sua hipótese de que Gregório pretendeu tornar acessível o conteúdo desse mistério de fé ao pensamento e à linguagem dos catecúmenos, a cujos instrutores a obra fora escrita. Nesse sentido, a tese demonstra o quanto é atual a maneira como esse Padre da Igreja fez a leitura do tema, de modo a salientar mesmo o aspecto afetivo do mistério da Encarnação. Além disso, igualmente é ressaltada a relação entre filanthropia,a do Logos e: o carisma da Inspiração, a Revelação ad intra do Ser ontológico de Deus, a moral social (mormente no que tange à sensibilidade para com os pobres), a vida batismal dos cristãos, o aspecto terapêutico e estético de sua ação. Por fim, a tese pretende contribuir, na atual Teologia do país, para um maior fomento no estudo do legado deixado pela Patrística. / [fr] La présente thèse vise à étudier la filanthropia,a du Logos divin comme motif fondamental du mystère de l Incarnation dans l ouvrage LOGOS KATECHETIKOS (Oratio Catechetica Magna) de Saint Grégoire de Nysse, écrit au IVème. siècle en Cappadoce (l actuelle Turquie). Développé sur quatre chapitres, la présente étude se propose de rechercher, dans les deux premiers, les présupposés de la filanthropia,a du Logos. Dans le troisième chapitre, l objet de l étude se concentre sur l ouvrage ciblé de Grégoire de Nysse, et enfin, dans le quatrième, sur d autres de ses ouvrages. Dans ce dernier chapitre on fait référence au rapport entre la filanthropia,a du Logos, l oikonomia,a salvifique et le mystère de l Incarnation. Par une méthodologie spécifique actuelle de l exégèse patristique, l auteur de la thèse cherche à renforcer ses réflexions à partir de divers exemples tirés d extraits des oeuvres de l auteur, en les commentant et en analysant des mots ou des expressions de la langue originelle dans laquelle ils furent écrits. Ce travail le conduit à confirmer son hypothèse que Grégoire prétendait rendre accessible le sujet de ce mystère de la foi à la pensée et au langage des catéchumènes, dont les formateurs sont les destinaires de l ouvrage. En ce sens, la thèse démontre combien est actuelle la manière dont ce Père de l Église a compris ce thème, de manière à mettre en évidence, en vue même de le souligner, l aspect affectif du mystère de l Incarnation. Par ailleurs, sont mises aussi en évidence les rapports entre filanthropia,a du Logos et le charisme de l Inspiration, la Révélation ad intra de l être ontologique de Dieu, la morale sociale (principalement en ce qui concerne la sensibilité aux pauvres), la vie baptismale des chrétiens, l aspect thérapeutique et esthétique de leur action. Enfin, la thèse se propose de contribuer, dans la Théologie actuelle du pays, à promovoir davantage l étude ultérieure de l héritage laissé par la Patristique.

194	Moderskapet som ikon för Gud : En moderskapsteologisk undersökning av Jonna Bornemarks och Alva Dahls prosalyrik Lappin, Edel Irén January 2024 (has links) The quest of this essay is to see if a theology of motherhood based on a phenomenological experience can shine new light on the incarnation. How can the poems of the writer Alva Dahl and the philosopher Jonna Bornemark contribute to a theology of motherhood? To answer this question, I start by outlining the tradition of the theology of motherhood. My definition of a theology of motherhood is a theology that begins with the phenomenological experience of being a mother, an embodied theology. Dahl’s and Bornemark’s prose-poetry stems from their personal experiences of motherhood, pregnancy and birth. I analyze poems from these two writers and read them through the lens of the theoretical background. This background consists mainly of the book Motherhood: A Confession (2020) written by the feminist theologian Natalie Carnes. She shows how experiences of motherhood can point toward God. From her book I draw three main concepts, which I use as analysis-concepts in the readings of the material. These concepts are: “I and Thou”, “icon and idol” and “microgenesis”. In the analysis of the poems I show how motherhood is relational, iconographic and a reflection of creation. The poems show in different ways how motherhood can be iconographic by pointing towards God. One of the ways is in the relational aspect of birth, another one in how mothers become part of the creation-process by having a child grow in the womb. In the discussion I show examples on how this theology of motherhood shines light on the Incarnation through the readings of the prose-poetry of Dahl and Bornemark. The essay also asks the question of how further research can be pursued based on a more bodily and anabatic theology. Religious Studies Religionsvetenskap
195	Inkarnatorisk epistemologi : En transformativ kristologi som teologisk maktkritik i dialog med Theodor Adorno och Gloria Anzaldúa / Incarnational Epistemology : A transformative christology as power critical theology in dialogue withTheodor Adorno and Gloria Anzaldúa Lang Koppen, Maja January 2024 (has links) Christ can be understood as a mirror, connecting humanity and God in his image into a hybrid entity, without eliminating the difference. The complex reality is mirrored through Christ transcending the border between subjectivity and objectivity, human and God, ourselves and others. This study is a form of constructive theology that aims to construct a transformative christological conceptual model, which can contribute to theology as a power critical epistemological deconstruction. It does this through the method of critical and comparative text analysis. The study consists of two main sections, analysis and the discussion. The analysis section seeks to develop a theoretical frame, in which to generate a conversation between critical theorists Theodor Adorno and Gloria Anzaldúa on their view on epistemological oppression and liberation. The result is the development of an analytical concept called dialectics of the borders that exposes epistemological oppression as understood through the critical terms of oppression of objectivism and the suppressed gap. As an answer to the dialectics of border the analysis section develops the phrase dialectics of the gap, as an expression of epistemological liberation, which relies on such concepts as the shape of the gap, epistemological deconstruction, the hybrid entity, and transformative hybridity. The discussion section applies this theoretical frame to various christological concepts in order to create a new useful conceptual model. The constructed conceptual model is called incarnational epistemology and expresses an empowering critical epistemological reconstruction in Christ. The cross is understood as the explicit border between God and humanity, which is expressed by man's colonialization of dialectics. In Christ God transcends these epistemological borders and embodies the gap, as an expression for dialectics of the gap. For example it is demonstrated with the understanding of the body of Christ as the hybridization between subjectivity and objectivity and the sanctification as a reversed incarnation by the collective reconstruction of Christ in the border between subjectivity and objectivity. Hence, humanity as the body of Christ through sanctification can be understood as the mirrored image of Christ incarnating this epistemological reconstruction.

196	Le verbe de dieu et le salut de l'homme selon Athanase d'Alexandre Pelletier, Jacques 16 April 2018 (has links) Tableau d’honneur de la Faculté des études supérieures et postdoctorales, 2008-2009 / Célébré pendant des siècles comme le défenseur par excellence du symbole de Nicée, lequel proclama en l'an 325 face à la doctrine arienne la pleine et entière divinité du Verbe de Dieu, Athanase d'Alexandrie sut exprimer avec originalité cette foi à son Église en plaçant le mystère de l'incarnation au coeur même de la révélation biblique. Son traité de jeunesse, Sur l'incarnation du Verbe, première synthèse de doctrine chrétienne connue de l'histoire ecclésiale, met en lumière la pensée doctrinale et christologique de ce caractère peu commun qui transcenda son siècle et dont les impacts se font encore sentir aujourd'hui sur l'Église. C'est donc à partir de cette oeuvre majeure que ce travail de recherche, situé dans le domaine de l'histoire de l'Église de l'Antiquité, tentera de permettre au lecteur de mieux saisir et comprendre l'articulation particulière que fit l'évêque du IVe siècle de la foi nicéenne.

197	De l'invention du mourant à la figure de l'agonie. Recherche sur l'ultime épiphanie de la personne incarnée / From the invention of the dying, to the figure of agony : research on the final epiphany of the incarnated person Tranchant, Blandine 11 January 2017 (has links) A l’heure où la prise en charge médicale s’avère de plus en plus nécessaire pour accompagner la fin de vie, il nous apparait que sa place est de plus en plus importante et de moins en moins questionnée. Or, réduire la fin de vie à la question du mourant et de sa prise en charge est pour le moins problématique. L’arrêt d’hydratation et d’alimentation, les différentes formes de sédation, l’euthanasie, le suicide assisté, les soins palliatifs résument-ils à eux seuls ce que l’on peut dire de la fin de vie ? Peut-elle se résumer uniquement à une question d’ordre médical ? N’est-elle pas avant tout une question d’ordre existentiel où, à l’heure de notre déclin, nous sommes confrontés à l’agonie ? Souffrance et finitude se trouvent au cœur de notre interrogation et nous poussent à nous confronter au pâtir de la vie, nous dévoilant ainsi comme être de chair. Grâce à la philosophie henryenne, l’agonie va peu à peu se dévoiler comme une occasion ultime de révélation de soi à soi en tant que soi. Face à l’aporie du mal qui frappe, nous découvrons les hommes capables toujours d’y faire face par un effort de repersonnalisation. C’est cet effort nécessaire qui va se dévoiler tant dans le champ métaphysique, que dans le champ éthique, et que dans le champ politique. C’est ce même effort qui amène l’homme à prendre ses responsabilités et à répondre aux questions existentielles. La subjectivité de chacun se doit alors de devenir le centre de l’institution soignante. L’agonie devient possibilité de repenser la place de la personne au sein du système hospitalier : place de la personne soignante, de la personne soignée, de ceux qui accompagnent, tout en développant une éthique de l’accompagnement qui doit ensuite se décliner dans une politique. Car si, métaphysiquement, vivre son agonie ne peut se justifier que par l’Amour, éthiquement, il nous faut construire une nouvelle poétique de l’action faisant place à la fraternité issue de la chair, à l’imagination de l’homme pour répondre à l’appel d’autrui et de la vie, et à la subsidiarité, afin que chacun soit respecté dans son agir et sa conscience. Politiquement, cela nous ouvre alors à un système hospitalier respectueux de chaque « Je Peux » qui se déploie en son sein. Le respect du consentement du patient reste ainsi la pierre angulaire du système hospitalier ; mais il ne peut se construire que dans une alliance avec les soignants. / In the context of today’s world, medical care is becoming increasingly necessary to assist patients at the end of life. It appears that this care is taking on more and more importance and is subject to fewer and fewer questions. is less and less questioned. However, confining the end of life to the state of dying and its medical support is problematic. Can the end of life be resumed as stopping hydration and artificial feeding, sedation in its different forms, euthanasia, assisted suicide, and palliative care? Can it be summed up as a simple medical question? Isn’t the end of life, first and foremost, linked to an existential question in which, at the time of our decline, we come face to face with agony? Finiteness and suffering are at the heart of our questioning as we confront life’s hardships, revealing the mystery of the flesh. With the help of Michel Henry’s philosophy, agony will gradually reveal itself as an ultimate opportunity for self-revelation. Faced with the paradox of evil, we find Man capable of coping with an effort of re-personification. This necessary effort will unfold in the metaphysical, ethical and political fields. This same effort allows Man to take responsibility for himself and to contemplate existential questions. The subjectivity of each person must become the center of the healthcare institution. Agony becomes the possibility to rethink the place of the individual person within the hospital system: the care giver, the care receiver and those supporting them, all while developing an ethical personal assistance which must then translated into policies. Because even if metaphysically, living out agony cannot be otherwise justified but by Love, ethically we must build a new way of operating. We must leave room for fraternity as a consequence of being of the flesh, to imagination in order to respond to our fellow man and our life’s calling, and to subsidiarity so that everyone is respected in his actions and consciousness. Politically, it opens up the possibility of a hospital system respectful of each "I Can" which is echoed within its walls. Respect for the patient's consent remains the cornerstone of the hospital system but can only be built with an alliance with caregivers.

198	Bishop Dr S. Dwane and the rise of Xhosa spirituality in the Ethiopian Episcopal Church (formerly the Order of Ethiopia) Mtuze, Peter Tshobiso 30 June 2008 (has links) The thesis consists of seven chapters with each chapter focusing on a particular aspect of the research topic. Chapter One deals with conventional preliminaries such as aim of study, method of approach, literature overview and other introductory material. Chapter Two is an an overview of the foundations of Bishop Dwane's spirituality and his church's struggle for autonomy. It also covers the origins, the nature and the purpose of Ethiopianism as the central thread in Dwane's theologizing and family history. Chapter Three reflects the attitude of the Anglican Church to African traditional culture as reflected in three historical phases - the era of total onslaught on African culture and religion, the period of accommodation, and the phase of turning a blind eye to these matters for as long as Anglicanism remains intact. Chapter Four contains Dwane's views on various cultural issues culminating in his decision to indigenize his Ethiopian Episcopal Church's liturgy and other forms of worship by incorporating traditional healers into the church and invoking the presence of Qamata and the ancestors in worship. Chapter Five analyses Dwane's prophetic spirituality as evidenced by his advocacy role in fighting for justice and human rights in this country. He relentlessly fought for the rights of those who were victimized by the government of the day, and those who were willfully discriminated against. Chapter Six is on the evolution of an authentic Xhosa spirituality, in particular, and African spirituality in general, in the Ethiopian Episcopal Church. While the main focus of the study is the evolution of Xhosa spirituality, it should be emphasized that the thrust of Dwane's theologizing extended to the evolution of other African spiritualities in the broader church. Chapter Seven is a general conclusion that highlights the main elements of Dwane's spirituality and the heritage he left behind in this regard. / Christian Spirituality, Church History and Missiology / D.

199	Franchopone churches in the cities of Johannesburg and Pretoria (Tshwane) : a missiological perspective Mpinga, Athas Cibangu 06 1900 (has links) This thesis is a missiological study of the francophone churches in the cities of Johannesburg and Pretoria. Francophone churches may be classified as African Initiated Churches (AIC) that have been planted by migrants from the French speaking countries of central Africa. They are characterised by the use of French and English as languages of worship and communication. The planting and the presence of these churches have become a more visible and remarkable mission phenomenon drawing scientific attention and is worthy of studying. The main issue of this study is the missionality of the Francophone churches. The investigation concerns the ways in which Francophone churches understand the mission of God, known as missio Dei, and the ways in which they express it in the community. In practice the exploration of the missionality of the Francophone churches discloses their nature, raison d’être, and their purpose, as well as their ministries, and allows us to determine the relevancy of these churches in the community. For this reason, in the study I explore and describe also the concept of the missional church in order to apply it to the Francophone churches. To that end, “Patterns of missional church” are used to measure the extent to which Francophone churches are missional. The study suggests the parameters of the development of a missional culture in a Francophone congregation and highlights the importance of the missional leadership in this respect. Finally the study proposes some missional ministries or contextual ministries that may express practically the missionality and consequently the relevancy of Francophone churches in their context. / Christian Spirituality, Church History & Missiology / D.

200	More than partnership : a contextual model of an organic-complementary communion in world mission under consideration of kenosis Gwinner, 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 & Missiology / D.
