Sakramentologijos atsinaujinimo tendencijos XX a. pirmoje pusėje

Abstract

Šiame straipsnyje pateikiamos XX a. pirmosios pusės sakramentinės teologijos atsinaujinimo tendencijos, kurioms įtakos turėjo kilęs Liturginis judėjimas bei vienas iš jo pradininkų Odo Caselis ir biblinių studijų plėtra. Darbe stengiamasi sintetiškai atskleisti Pijaus XII ir poros ryškesnių to meto teologų sakramentologines įžvalgas

Liturgical renewal, born in Belgium, intensifield in Germany in the beginning of 20 th century, also evoked new tendencies in sacramentology. Odo Casel renews and re–interprets the theory of old mysteries as God’s saving interventions into the history of manking. Casel interprets a mystery not only as a hidden truth or reality, but as a salvational action of God, revealing himself. German theologian Odo Casel presents liturgy as God’s symbolic language in revealing his mysteries, where a symbol is understood not only as a meaningless sign, expressing concrete reality, but as a holder of this reality, as a different way of existing reality. Another theologian of the same time K. Adam, following the idea of the Benedictine, further develops the theology of the symbol and uses it in sacramentology, where the sacraments are understood as symbols, expressing the Pascal Mystery of Christ. Sacraments are the symbols, through which a man is submerged into the Pascal Mystery, and at the same time, with the incorporation to Christ himself, he becomes a participator of the divine life
