Revelation as a Manifestation within Human Culture

Mari Jože Osredkar ; Teološki fakultet, Sveučilište u Ljubljani, Ljubljana, Slovenia

Abstract

In the article, the author introduces the concept of Revelation as it is recognized in the theology of French thinker Guy Lafon. The Word of God did not fall from heaven, but the prophet recognizes it in human communication and announces it to people. His proclamation must be a testimony of faith, hope and love. A relationship consists of two dimensions: presence and absence. It changes all the time, because the rapport between presence and absence constantly changes. That is why one must search for a partner in the Relationship all the time. Since faith is a relationship, the believer must always seek God’s will, but in the Church. The Revelation of God is not possible without or outside human communication.

Keywords
