Jeg har tidligere lest mange kommenterer av John Allen (og nevnt ham ofte her p\u00e5 bloggen). I noen m\u00e5neder n\u00e5 har har skrevet f\u00e6rre daglige kommentarer – men hatt sin faste fredagskommentar, som jeg f\u00e5r pr epost – s\u00e5 derfor har jeg ikke s\u00e5 ofte bes\u00f8kt hans nettsider.<\/p>\n
N\u00e5 ser han ut til \u00e5 skrive flere daglige kommentarer igjen, og en leser nevnte for meg noe han skrev sist uke; om pave Benedikts m\u00f8te med troskongregasjonen<\/strong>. De m\u00f8ttes sist uke for \u00e5 snakke mest om bioetiske sp\u00f8rsm\u00e5l, men i sin innledning sa pave tydelige ting om Den katolske kirke as the \u201cone true church\u201d and the necessity of seeking converts to the faith …<\/p>\n In late June, the congregation issued a document on the famous phrase from the Second Vatican Council (1962-65) that the one church of Christ \u201csubsists in\u201d the Catholic church. In essence, the congregation asserted that the phrase means the Catholic church alone possesses the fullness of what it means to be a church.<\/p>\n During the council, some analysts interpreted the phrase \u201csubsists in\u201d as a departure from the traditional claim that the Catholic church is the lone \u201ctrue\u201d church. When the doctrinal congregation issued its clarification, some leaders of other Christian denominations warned of negative ecumenical fallout.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a critique which Benedict obviously does not accept, insisting that the clarification is actually \u201cnecessary for the correct development of ecumenical dialogue.\u201d <\/font><\/i> \u201cFar from impeding authentic ecumenical dialogue,\u201d Benedict said, \u201cit will be a stimulus, so that the debate on doctrinal questions is always marked by realism and full awareness of the aspects that still separate the Christian confessions.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cTo cultivate a theological vision that regards the unity and identity of the church as attributes \u2018hidden in Christ’, so that historically the church would exist only in multiple ecclesial confessions, reconcilable only in an eschatological perspective, would generate a slowdown and ultimately paralysis in ecumenism itself,\u201d the pope said.<\/p>\n Benedict also defended a recent doctrinal note on evangelization, asserting that the quest for explicit conversion to Christ remains an essential duty of the faith.<\/p>\n \u201cThe recognition of elements of truth and goodness in the religions of the world,\u201d he said, \u201cand of the seriousness of their religious efforts, dialogue with them and a spirit of collaboration for the defense and promotion of the dignity of the person and universal moral values, cannot be understood as a limitation on the missionary duty of the church, which compels it to incessantly announce Christ as the way, the truth and the life,\u201d he said.
