In front of the door of the third millennium

Sažetak
In the first place the author points at reflection in the Church in
front of the deep social changes and coming of the third millennium,
what demand renewal of life and adaptation to the new circumstances in the realization of mission.
By division of idea of history, which has its root in the revelation
itself, it is learned the reality of the Church which depends upon the
laws of history, i.e. changes in process. As historical reality on the
way of realization, the Church can never say that she identifies herself with Christ and with his proclamation of the Gospel in the world. She is in front of the permanent task of renewal, in the constant attention between the eager fidelity to that what is unchangeable in her and necessary adaptabilities that are imposed by actual social circumstances.
The Church at the Second Vatican Council, while she was
thinking about her nature and mission, directed her attention to need
of the renewal. The renewal of the Church, in the first place, is
renewal of fidelity to Lord and to mission that she has got from him.
In a this particular case today, renewal is deeper acceptance of the
Council.
The Church in Croatia, as the other churches in the societies
that are in transition, is met with specific problems and demands,
especially in front of the task of renewal and deeper acceptance of the Second Vatican Council.
