Der Begriff Selbstmitteilung Gottes in Karl Rahners Theologie
Journal Title: Wrocławski Przegląd Teologiczny - Year 2016, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
Karl Rahner has influenced 20th century theology through his conception of God’s self-communication. Commencing with his first publications, Rahner converses his idea of God’s self-communication to mankind. The questions and fears of the II. World War – stricken society forced – motivated him to reflect over the relationship between God and mankind. Grounded in the creation of the world by God, he came to the conclusion: God gives himself perpetually. Every personally received revelation is a self-gift from God. He focusses on two relevant forms of self-communication: first of all, God became human in Jesus Christ. God steps out of himself (innertrinitarien relationship) into the world (self-communication or self-alienation from God). Second, through God’s grace is mankind (the human being) capable of perceiving and accepting God’s devotion. Rahners concept of God’s self-com- munication was a life-long endeavor. He led theological thinking and manner- of-speech back to an immediate encounter and to unique personal love.
