Kochać znaczy widzieć. Wokół teologicznej epistemologii J. Ratzingera/Benedykta XVI

Abstract

J. Ratzinger/Benedict XVI indicates existential and moral conditions underlying our understanding of God: our original experience in relations with others, the first image of God, instilled in us, but also our personal decisions, including ethical choices. Finally, a man seeks the source of security or a threat to his/her own freedom in God’s look (the Eye of Providence). Consequently he/she accepts or rejects God as a witness of his/her own fate. The Pope convinces that a humble consent for being visible constitutes a sign of conversion, which in turn leads to understanding God a Faithful Witness, who can see and save us.
