Soteriology 1) Three basic questions of soteriology: 1) from what we want to be saved, 2) towards what we want to be saved, 3) how and what with we want to achieve this salvation. 2) An overview and critique of some secular soteriologies: Marxism-Leninism, Marxism-Freudism. 3) Religious soteriologies: 1) ethnic religions, 2) Hinduism, 3) Buddhism, 4) Taoism, 5) Manichaeism, 6) Islam. 4) Christian soteriology is grounded in liberation of the "first creation", and "first Adam", from droop of the sin towards the "new creation", and the "new Adam". This heave happened in the Christ event of resurrection and exaltation. Everybody is than called to be part of this through faith, hope and love as well as through sacramental signs. 5) Christian soteriology as the history of salvation (O. Cullmann, Vl. Boublík). 6) The question of predestination towards salvation and its metamorphosis from St. Augustine to Boublík 7) Soteriology of Anselm from Canterbury - its merits, shadows and influence. He missed there the teaching about resurrection of Jesus. 8) Redemption and resurrection (Rom 4, 25). 9) Misleading concepts of the salvation-bringing meaning of Jesus´ suffering and death. 10) Basic notions of the salvation-bringing meaning of Jesus´ crucifixion: satisfaction, redemption, sacrifice, forgiveness, reconciliation. 11) Resurrection of Jesus as primal and embryonic realization of the perfect salvation of the whole humanity of Jesus, which became the source of emanation of the Holy Spirit, who will complete final palingenesis of humanity and the whole creation. Christology 1) Variety of Christologies: "from above", "from below", "descendent", "ascendant", metaphysical, existentional, historical, secular, eschatological, integral. 2) Who is Jesus from the perspective of phenomenology and sociology in the framework of that time Jewish society and in the world perspective? Jesus is absolutely unique. 3) Christology of the Holy Scripture. Six terms of the Old Testament, which prefigure the New Testament Christology: Dabar JHVH, Mal´ach JHVH, Chochma JHVH, Ben adam, Ebed JHVH, Mashiach. Christology of the new testament according to R. E. Brown: Christology of parusia, Christology of resurrection, Christology of the public activity of Jesus, Christology of Jesus´ conception and birth (Mathew, Luke), Christology of pre-existention prior to creation (John). Christ's pre-existention from eternity is not explicitly mentioned in the Scripture. Such formulation appears at the council of Nicaea (325). 4) Evolution of Christology as the battle on two frontlines: against reduction of Jesus´ humanity (Docetism, Apollinarism) and against reduction of his divinity (Ebionites, Adaptianism, Subordinationism, Arianism). 5) Fight for divinity of Jesus against Arianism. 6) Nestorianism and council of Ephesus (431). Monophysitism and "latrocinium efesinum" (449). "Tomus ad Flavianum" of the pope Leo and council of Chalcedon. Crucial meaning of terms as "person" (prosópon) a "nature" (usia) and four adverbs: Inconfuse, inmutabiliter, indivise, inseparabiliter. 7) Monoenergetism a monothelism. Theology of Maxim Confessor and his martyrdom (13. 8. 662). Third council of Constantinople (680-681). 8) Iconoclasm Christology of monophysitism, theology of John Damascus (+749) and fourth council of Constantinople (843). 9) Mystery of incarnation: Its primary purpose according to Thomas Aquinas and Duns Scotus. Various attempts to define "person": Boethius, Richard from st. Victor, Cajetanus, Capreolus, Suarez, Anton Günther, Jean Galot. 10) Mystery of anointment (Unctio) thus resurrection.
