    Andn1y.r Uniwr~itySeminary Stndics, Vol. 42, No. 2,361-382. Copyright 8 2004 Andrews University Press. SACRAMENTAL THEOLOGY AND ECCLESIASTICAL AUTHORITY DmusJANKIEWICZ Fulton College Tailevu, Fiji Sacramental theology developed as a corollary to Christian soteriology. While Christianity promises salvation to all who accept it, different theories have developed as to how salvation is obtained or transmitted. Understandmg the problem of the sacraments as the means of salvation, therefore, is a crucial soteriological issue of considerable relevance to contemporary Christians. Furthermore, sacramental theology exerts considerable influence upon ecclesiology, particularb ecclesiasticalauthority. The purpose of this paper is to present the historical development of sacramental theology, lea- to the contemporary understanding of the sacraments within various Christian confessions; and to discuss the relationship between the sacraments and ecclesiastical authority, with special reference to the Roman Catholic Church and the churches of the Reformation. The Development of Rom Catholic Sacramental Tbeohgy The Early Church The orign of modem Roman Catholic sacramental theology developed in the earliest history of the Christian church. While the NT does not utilize the term "~acrament,~'some scholars speculate that the postapostolic church felt it necessary to bring Christianity into line with other rebons of the he,which utilized various "mysterious rites." The Greek equivalent for the term "sacrament," mu~tmbn,reinforces this view. In addition to the Lord's Supper and baptism, which had always carried special importance, the early church recognized many rites as 'holy ordinances."' It was not until the Middle Ages that the number of sacraments was officially defked.2 The term "sacrament," a translation of the Latin sacramenturn ("oath," 'G.

  • Hope in Action
    Introduction "Always be ready . ." “Always be ready to make your defense to anyone who demands from you an accounting for the hope that is in you” (1 Pet. 3:15). Within this biblical charge, addressed to early Christian communities suffering religious persecution at the turn of the second century, we find a concentrated expression of a task that has persistently pressed itself upon Christian theology. What is that hope which would sustain Christian communities down through the centuries? How might theologians offer an account of that hope responsive to the distinct demands of their time? Although the history of Christian theology might be read profitably as an effort to respond to these questions through the range of traditional theological topoi, beginning in the 1960s a number of prominent theologians in Europe would move these questions to the center of their theological projects as they attempted to renew the Christian tradition’s reading and appropriation of the doctrine of eschatology. Examined from a new historical vantage point, they identified in this doctrine a potent and compelling resource for offering a defense of the Christian’s hope under the conditions of the modern world. Two Catholic theologians who contributed to this turn to eschatology in the mid-1960s and for whom eschatology has been a 1 HOPE IN ACTION crucial concern ever since are Edward Schillebeeckx (1914–2009) and Johann Baptist Metz (b. 1928).1 In their early writings, each of these theologians worked to uncover the manner in which the Christian’s eschatological expectations for the future radically impinge on the present.

I explore different ways in which the Eucharist is understood in today’s world. First, I analyse texts of the Second Vatican Council and post-conciliar texts. The Second Vatican Council and post-conciliar official texts present new ways of discussing the Eucharist, which has put into relief diverse aspects which contribute to a deeper understanding of it.

  • A RESPONSE to FRANCIS X. CLOONEY INTRODUCTION First, Let Me Thank Dr. Clooney for His Rich and Evocative Essay by Which He Led U
    • CTSA PROCEEDINGS 58 (2003): 16-21 • A RESPONSE TO FRANCIS X. CLOONEY INTRODUCTION First, let me thank Dr. Clooney for his rich and evocative essay by which he led us to vicariously experience his intellectual, spiritual, and affective journey as he stood before the shrine of the Hindu goddess Laksmi, read a hymn to the goddess Devi, encountered Mary through the prism of the Hindu goddesses and the texts of the Koran, and, finally, literally returned to his geographic home to discover in historical texts his sister New Yorker, Sojourner Truth, and her profound mystical experiences of a self-revealing God. The background theory1 that illuminates Clooney's hermeneutical method is that of Hans George Gadamer as describe in his classic, Truth and Method? Throughout the text, Clooney, steeped in his studies of South Asian languages and civilizations, moves with "insight and instinct" to bridge the religious horizons of Hinduism, Catholicism, Islam, and Black Protestant Christianity. He allowed diverse texts to evoke his participatory interpretation as he searched for the meaning of the role of the feminine in the human encounter with God (p. 4 of Clooney).3 The following remarks will be in three major categories: first, an interpretive summary to ascertain from Dr. Clooney whether or not I understood his method and purpose; secondly, a critical comment; and, finally, some questions to initiate the discussion. AN INTERPRETIVE SUMMARY: THE FUSION OF RELIGIOUS HORIZONS Clooney's presentation illustrates how the hermeneutical method applies both to experiential encounters with texts and in ritual encounter allows one to cross the thresholds from one's known context of faith to the unknown faith of "the other" as a method of illuminating, expanding, and thus deepening one's understanding of one's own faith tradition.

  • Viri Probati and Presiding Over the Eucharist According to Edward Schillebeeckx
    105 Izvirni znanstveni članek (1.01) Bogoslovni vestnik 78 (2018) 1,105—119 UDK: 27-549 Besedilo prejeto: 09/2017; sprejeto: 09/2017 Maciej Raczyński-Rożek Viri probati and Presiding Over the Eucharist According to Edward Schillebeeckx Abstract: Pope Francis in the interview in Die Zeit has claimed that probably in the near future it will be possible that the viri probati will preside over the Eucharist. In this way the pope opens the theological discussion about the concept of the priestly ministry in the Church. The question of presiding the Eucharist byviri pro- bati is not only the question about celibacy but also about the relation between the minister and the community. What is first: the community which has the apo- stolic succession and appoints a ministers when is needed or a minister who re- ceives in the apostolic succession sacra potestas over the community? This que- stion, only formulated in a different way, is the question about the concept of the Church: should it be ecclesial-pneumatological or christological? The article pre- sents the answer for this issue of Edward Schillebeeckx, who offers very courage- ous theory of the priestly ministry in the Church. Although his solution was reco- gnized by Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith as »heretical« one, Schillebeeckx’s theory, like any »heresy«, indicates some problems in the Church, marks the limits of investigation and invites us to look for the right solution. Key words: priestly ministry, Schillebeeckx, viri probati, Eucharist Povzetek: Viri probati in vodenje evharistične daritve po Edwardu Schillebeeckxu Papež Frančišek je v intervjuju za Die Zeit izjavil, da bo verjetno v bližnji priho- dnosti mogoče, da bodo evharistično daritev vodili viri probati (»preverjeni, primerni možje«).

  • The Relevance of Professor Edward Schillebeeckx, O.P. for the Twenty-First Century
    The Relevance of Professor Edward Schillebeeckx, O.P. For the Twenty-First Century Robert Schreiter, C.PP.S. Catholic Theological Union at Chicago The Kathleen and John F. Bricker Memorial Lecture Tulane University New Orleans, Louisiana October 8, 2009 Introduction The twentieth century was a time of profound development and change in Catholic theology, a time that might only be compared with the thirteenth century in that regard. In the thirteenth century, theology shifted its locus from the monastery to the new universities in the burgeoning cities of Europe, and developed new methods for exploring divine truth. It gave us towering figures such as Thomas Aquinas and Bonaventure. In the twentieth, theology renewed itself by at once returning to its sources and by engaging a rapidly changing world. In that century that now lies just behind us, we see once again what makes for the most important advances in the theological articulation of faith: a rediscovery of the depths of Tradition, of the faith that has been handed down to us from the apostles; and its wrestling with the great issues that re-emerge in a time of change in society and the Church. By any reckoning, the Dominican theologian Edward Schillebeeckx would have to be ranked as one of the great theologians in the Catholic Church during the twentieth century. His career as a theologian carries both of these characteristics just mentioned: his being schooled in the great ressourcement or return to the sources that marked French and German theology from the first decade of the century up to its midpoint, an influence that marked the publications in the first third of his immense output; and a direct 1 engagement of a wide range of contemporary issues from the mid-1960s onward.

  • The Prophetic Imagination We Are Surrounded by a Cloud of Witnesses, Let Us Therefore Lay Aside Any Weight . . .And Let Us Run W
    268 The Prophetic Imagination We are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses, let us therefore lay aside any weight . .and let us run with perseverance the race that is set before us. Hebrews 12: 1-2 I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. That is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant. I believe that wounded justice, lying prostrate on the blood-flowing streets of our nations, can be lifted from this dust of shame to reign supreme among the children of men. I have the audacity to believe that peoples everywhere can have three meals a day for their bodies, education and culture for their minds, and dignity, equality and freedom for their spirits. I believe that what self-centred men have torn down, men other-centred can build up. Martin Luther King, Jr.: Nobel Prize Speech . Priests, in the way that anthropologists tend to think of them across cultures, are men of establishment, custodians of the God-given. Prophets are women and men of disturbance, moved directly by spirits to challenge power in the present for some future outcome. Kings, in the metaphor that comes to us from scripture, personify authority and power. In baptism, Vatican II taught, we are made Priests, Prophets and Kings in Jesus Christ. It is a trio of attributes that sits awkwardly on us. Priest, Prophet, King are keywords of another age. We tend to soften the sharpness of their image with words like priestly, prophetic, empowerment, although it is hard to imagine celebrating a Feast of Christ the Empowered! Priestliness I take as the grace we have to bless and give, prophecy the vision of a just world we are missioned by our baptism to accomplish, empowerment our responsibility and ability to enact what we envision.

  • The Implications of E Schillebeeckx's
    Malan, DJ University of Stellenbosch The implications of E Schillebeeckx’s theology of liberation for anthropology and creation ABSTRACT The relevance of E Schillebeeckx’s theology for the South African context is seen in the implications of his theology for anthropology and creation. He has construed an experiential and contextual theology which unravelled the intrinsic correlation between “Christian liberation” and “modern emancipation”. In Christology, according to him, all aspects of theology are integrated. Even though some of the Schillebeeckx readers assume that his concern for liberation theology is a recent concern, Schillebeeckx himself has stated on the contrary that it is the golden thread throughout his theological endeavours. The dialogical relationship between church and world makes it impossible for the church to remain silent when they hear the cries of downtrodden and helpless people. This choice is so radical that it means more than even the confession of God. Hermeneutics is therefore not only the understanding of the Scriptures, but it is an instrument of renewal of man and world in the dialectical tension between history and eschatology. 1. THESIS The thesis of this paper is that the theology of Prof Edward Schillebeeckx of Nijmegen has direct implications for anthropology and the integrity of creation which is highly relevant for our South African context. The problems, with which this thesis confronts us, are: • Why does Schillebeeckx call his theology a theology of liberation? • What role does anthropology and creation play in his systematic biblical approach? • What are the implications of this theology for our situation? • How can we evaluate this theology and its implications in a satisfactory manner? 2.

  • Submitted in Accordance with the Requirements for the Degree of In
    AN INCARNATIONAL CHRISTOLOGY SET IN THE CONTEXT OF NARRATIVES OF SHONA WOMEN IN PRESENT DAY ZIMBABWE by FRANCISCA HILDEGARDIS CHIMHANDA Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF THEOLOGY in the subject SYSTEMATIC THEOLOGY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA PROMOTER: PROF EVAN NIEKERK JUNE2002 SUMMARY Implicit in the concepts Incarnation, narrative, Christology, Shona women of Zimbabwe today is the God who acts in human history and in the contemporaneity and particularity of our being. The Incarnation as the embodiment of God in the world entails seizing the kairos opportunity to expand the view and to bear the burdens ofresponsibility. A theanthropocosmic Christology that captures the Shona holistic world-view is explored. The acme for a relational Christology is the imago Dei!Christi and the baptismal indicative and imperative. God is revealed in various manifestations of creation. Human identity and dignity is the flipside of God's attributes. Theanthropocosmic Christology as pluralistic, differential and radical brings about a dialectic between the whole and its parts, the uniqueness of the individual, communal ontology and epistemology, the local and the universal, orthodoxy and orthopraxis, Christology and soteriology. God mediates in the contingency ofparticularity. Emphasis is on life-affirmation rather than sex determination of Jesus as indicated by theologies ofliberation and inculturation. At the interface gender, ethnicity, class and creed, God transcends human limitedness and artificial boundaries in creating catholic space and advocating all-embracing apostolic action. Difference is appreciated for the richness it brings both to the individual and the community. Hegemonic structures and borderless texts are view with suspicion as totalising grand-narratives and exclusivist by using generic language.
