Summary: | Pope Francis conceptualizes his »dogmatic-theological« understanding of ministry and authority of the bishop of Rome using the words »cum Petro et sub Petro«. This formula captures his habitual behavior – according to the spirit of discernment of Ignatius of Loyola – in relation to every (single) bishop and the council as well as to the people of God as a whole (ecclesia universalis), the universal Church. As to the Churches connected in Faith and the Christian communities, the formula gives the chance to remeasure the wideness of the primacy of the Pope in a pastoral way. The objective of Pope Francis' way of exercising the primacy is to join the Church of Jesus Christ on earth into a » whole assembly of charity « (Lumen gentium 13,3). Such an understanding of the Pope's primacy provides a deeper understanding of revelation » in spirit and truth « (Joh 4,24; cf. 16,13). |
