Sažetak
In the article the author investigates the correlation between
the episcopate and presbyterate in the thought of a controversial
theologian and church-shepherd Mark Antun de Dominis (1560-
1624), who left the archbishop’s chair and fled to the Anglicans
in England. There he publishes numerous works in which he
severely attacks the Catholic Church hierarchy. For the sake of
correct understanding of M. A. de Dominis’ thought, the author
first presents the concept of the correlation between the episcopate
and presbyterate in medieval theology, then the reaction of the
Protestant theology to that teaching. The author concludes the
first part of the article with the view of teachings of the Council
of Trent on ministerial priesthood, which was the reaction to the
Protestant teachings. In the second part the author investigates M.
A. de Dominis’ thought on church services which were, according
to M. A. de Dominis, established by Christ and so they are “de
iure divino”. The author comes to the conclusion that for M. A.
de Dominis the church services, within which the episcopate is
above the presbyterate, are necessary for the church and they are
an essential part of the church structure, but the controversial
church prelate denies them the sacramental nature. Thereby he
approaches the Protestant doctrine on church services.
