Description
Summary:To reform theological teaching means not only to revise the external arrangement of the classical treatises, but mainly to connect them by a new internal articulation, in order to correct the excessive pluralism of theological specialities. Such new structuring of theology in a salvation-history outlook centered on the Mystery of Christ, has been proposed theoretically — and even more in practice — by the IId Vatican Council, itself centred on the Mystery of the Church. The Council, indeed, was an outstanding churchly event, and its pronouncements mainly concerned the Church; so that it can be called « the Council of Ecclesiology » by reason of its great concentration on ecclesiological subjects. Moreover the historical and salvation focus rediscovered by Vatican II theology manifests the unity between the Mystery of Christ and the Mystery of the Church. After these premises, the author records the discussions of the place of Ecclesiology in a theological system, that took place before and after the Council. He proposes a new structuring of theological teaching in a salvation-history context, centered on Ecclesiology. The first in a series of concentric circles representing such a program would deal with the Mystery of Christ: Christ seen as he who reveals to us the Father and the Holy Ghost, and as « auctor historiae salutis ». A second circle would be devoted to the Mystery of the Church. This mystery of the faithful stems from the mystery of Christ, and renders it permanently present through history. The third concentric circle would be constituted by the sacraments, seen as the vital functions of the Church and as its self-realization through history. In a fourth circle, theological anthropology has to be developed. A fifth concentric circle, finally, would deal with eschatology, the theology of the things to come.
