The purpose of the dissertation is to try to show, on the basis of the writings of Joseph Ratzinger/Benedict XVI, the universal sense of the Cross of Christ and its present meaning. Christ's Paschal Mystery was the culmination of the history of salvation and an epiphanous event. For this reason, the Cross of Christ - interpreted as actual Revelation - is a particular focus of fundamental theology. In the context of atheism and nihilism of the present, in accordance with the paradigm of dynamic integration, this dissertation justifies the supernatural meaning revealed in the Cross of Christ and thus shows its credibility (...). Based on the reflection of Joseph Ratzinger/Benedict XVI, the dissertation shows that that in the Cross of Christ, modern man can find a revealed and at the same time meaningful answer to questions about the foundations of his existence. The Cross is a place of meaning and thus contains a divine answer to questions concerning the essence and purpose of human life, as well as its ultimate destiny. The discovery of the meaning revealed in the Cross can become for modern man the discovery of God's proposals and an invitation to enter into a relationship of faith with Him. |
