In this analysis of the Thomist and Irenaean sources of Edward Schillebeeckx’s creation faith, God’s absolute saving presence to humanity is found to be intrinsic to his creative action. This becomes most explicit in God’s humanity in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLewis argues that Jesus is both God’s invitation to humanity and is himself the perfect human response to God. Because of this, Jesus' followers are called to be engaged in God’s saving action, by working to remove suffering from people and build a better world in which all may flourish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSchillebeeckx’s theology is sometimes thought to divide into two disconnected halves, a pre- and post-Vatican II version. The way in which Schillebeeckx’s Christological soteriology has developed over his theological career, before and after Vatican II, is here examined using the \u003ci\u003eAnnales\u003c\/i\u003e model of continuity and change. This book finds that Schillebeeckx both breaks with the language of Chalcedon while remaining adamantly faithful to the truth which it expresses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe final chapters discover how Schillebeeckx’s ideas and methods are crucially relevant in an analysis of contemporary social suffering in Ciudad-Juárez by Nancy Pineda-Madrid, and in the project of the Catholic Dialogue School in Flanders by Lieven Boeve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Allen \u0026 Unwin","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47596035834092,"sku":"9780567708946","price":65.95,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/665230fe258200805016f58e249ae45e.jpg?v=1777931868"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/series-t-t-clark-studies-in-edward-schillebeeckx.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
