„From Conflict to Communion” - four theological themes in the document of Lutheran-Catholic commission on unity and joint commemoration of the Reformation in 2017

U ovom se radu bavimo dokumentom Luteransko-katoličke komisije o jedinstvu i zajedničkoj komemoraciji reformacije pod naslovom Od sukoba do zajedništva. U uvodu se kratko izražava različito shvaćanje same 500. obljetnice početka reformacije unutar Katoličke Crkve. U prvom poglavlju rada ukratko se po poglavljima predstavlja cijeli dokument, dok se drugo poglavlje, koje je ujedno i središnji dio rada, bavi četirima temeljnim teološkim temama Martina Luthera u svjetlu luteransko-katoličkog dijaloga: naukom o opravdanju; euharistijom; ministerijem; Pismom i tradicijom. Na kraju rada donosimo nekoliko obilježja ovog dokumenta koja bi bilo dobro usvojiti i slijediti u daljnjim dijalozima i zajedničkim dokumentima na svim ekumenskim razinama: izbjegavanje polemičnosti; prihvaćanje vlastite odgovornosti; optimizam u smislu postizanja vidljivog jedinstva.In this paper we are dealing with a document of Lutheran-Catholic commission on unity and joint commemoration of the Reformation under the title „From Conflict to Communion”. In the introduction we briefly present different understanding of the very 500th anniversary from the beginning of the Reformation within the Catholic Church. In the first part the whole document is shortly displayed by chapters; in the second part, which is also the central part of the paper, we discuss the four main theological themes of Martin Luther in light of the Lutheran-Catholic dialogue: doctrine on justification; Eucharist; ministry; Scripture and tradition. In the final part of the paper we present some features of this document that we recommend to be adopted and followed in further dialogues and joint documents at all ecumenical levels: avoiding polemics; not discarding one’s own responsibility; expressing optimism in terms of achieving visible unity
