Sažetak
We divided this work into two parts. The first part is
entitled “Centuries of silence and replaying of Protestant
theology“. In terms of silence on Protestant theology of Mary,
there are a number of reasons. Excessive veneration of Mary
from the Catholic side, the loss of connection with the Bible
and the instrumentalization of Mary with a view to combating
Protestantism, led to the fact that in Protestant theology, as
a logical reaction, eventually encased complete silence and
rejection of any talk about her. Recently Protestant theology has
awakened and begun again to speak about Mary. The reasons
are as follows: the Second Vatican Council placed the speech
about Mary in the framework of the Church; the memory of
the relationship between Mary and the Counter-Reformation
has disappeared and is no longer active; feminist theology and
ecumenism. The second part is titled “Elements of Protestant
theology for future ecumenical Mariology”. The main criteria for
future ecumenical Mariology, which are extremely important
for Protestants, are the following: speech about Mary must be
based exclusively on Scripture; solus Christus – there is neither
Mary nor Mariology without Christ whose place no one can take
or overshadow or diminish in any way; Mary is our sister in
faith, and as such cannot be a part of a cult or of a prayer; she
is neither a mediator nor intercessor with God. These Catholic
dogmas of Mary have no place in ecumenical Mariology. Finally,
per Mariam ad Christum - Mary leads exclusively to Christ, and
she is not an end in itself.
