Abstract

In the first part, on the basis of Lk 9,50—56 and Mt 18,23—35, the
author describes Jesus’ tolerant manner of announcing the Kingdom of
God and his treatment of those who were not included in the group
of his closer followers. Jesus requests tolerance because everyone needs God’s mercy. In the second part, the author depicts Paul’s urge for tolerance in the Church of the »weak« and the »strong«, in Rom 12—15 and 1Cor 8—10. Finally, the author reveals the need for tolerance and dialogue in the Cotholic community. This follows from the old Christian axiom: »In necessariis unitas, in dubiis libertas, in omnibus caritas.« This also follows from a consequent application of Vatican II documents: GS, DH and UR.
