Sažetak
In this article the author wishes to emphasise the Christological highlights present in the teachings of Pope John Paul II so that based on this approach, we can better understand the Pope's highlights in other theological-anthropological, ethical and other issues.
In the Christology of John Paul II, the main theme is the salvation of man wounded by sin and of the effects of revival. Christ is presented above all as the saviour of fallen man and the Son of God crucified on the cross as the most significant word of just how much God loves man and of the proclamation of the complete truth about man. The first two chapters of the first part of the article bring an analysis of relevant texts dealing with the Pope's teachings where Christ is portrayed as the saviour of fallen man and as the proclaimer of the truth about man.
The final two paragraphs in the second part of the article approach a theological analysis of realisation of relations between the creation, Christ's cross and the resurrection and salvation. At the same time the relationship between Christology and anthropology are enlightened as a result of the previously analysed theological-Christological teachings of John Paul II. In the concluding chapter, the author sums up the results of previous theological analysis of the Pope's Christology.
