Myśl o posłaniu Chrystusa w Nowym Testamencie

Feliks Gryglewicz





Abstract

After the examination of all the texts in the New Testament dealing with Christ’s mission the author states that the thought about Christ’s mission occures from the oldest to the latest parts of the New Testament. All the elements of this notion already appeared in the synoptic gospels. Among the Jews in Palestine it was connected with the promise of the arrival of Messiah and in St. John with the idea of Logos. Throughout the New Testament it is expressed by various means; Apostle Paul deepened its theological character, but it becomes a dominant idea first of all in St. John’s gospel. Here is occured in its basic role by stressing the connections between Jesus Christ and God and confirming authority and divine nature of Christ. St. John also gave the most profound definition of its theological importance for the showed clearly God’s motivations as regards the mission and defined very explicitly its purpose. Therefore it was St. John who pointed to Christ as the one who made a widely known idea of God’s messenger come true.
