Trons mysterium: En introduktion till den ortodoxa kyrkans troslära och andlighet
No full textEfter 70 år av statligt påbjuden ateism och återkommande förföljelser, har den Ryska Kyrkan under de senaste två decennierna genomgått en närmast mirakulös pånyttfödelse och förnyelse. Svårigheterna är många; den nya friheten innebär många utmaningar. En utmaning utgörs av att många i de nya generationerna har diffusa föreställningar om vad kristen tro är. En av de mest framstående i den nya generationen av teologer, lärare och kyrkoledare är metropoliten Hilarion (Alfejev) av Volokolamsk. Hans bok »Trons mysterium«, tänkt som en lättillgänglig introduktion till ortodox troslära för hans unga landsmän, utgavs första gången på ryska år 1996 och har hittills utkommit i fem upplagor. Boken har översatts till en rad språk, inte enbart engelska, franska, tyska och italienska utan även exempelvis polska, finska och serbiska. I Trons mysterium, en introduktion till den ortodoxa kyrkans troslära och andlighet möter vi en undervisning som för många kan bli en ögonöppnare om djupen och klarheten i kyrkans tro

No full textDespite the importance of canon law in the life of the Eastern Orthodox Churches, there has not been a study of the ecclesiology of the canons regulating marriage. Marriage is an object of right regulated both by civil law and the canon law of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Marriage as an object of right is at the intersection of two legal orders - the ecclesial and the civil. The canonical regulation of marriage as an object of right confronts us with a twofold ecclesiological problem: (a) how does the Church perceive the civil legal order in relation to its own legal order; and, (b) how is the self-understanding of the Church, i.e. its ecclesiology, reflected in its canon law? Thus, the ecclesiological problem examined in this study is the question of how the ecclesial polity (politeuma), as the Eucharistic ekklēsia of the people (laos) of the new covenant, actualizes itself as taxis within a concrete society. The hypothesis is that the aim of the ecclesial polity is covenant holiness, and, furthermore, that the aim of the canonical taxis is to establish and maintain covenant holiness within the concrete socio-historical setting of the ecclesial polity. By actualization, this means the diachronic institutional process whereby the ecclesial polity subsists in a society as an institution determined by its finality and institutional potentiality
