Tattoo Female Genetalia
inspired by Advent
Rome, Thursday, 24 ديسمبر 2009 ( Zenit . org ). - Man is the object time, and the manifestation of God in his life can not be appropriate if you do not take into account this fundamental and existential dimension of being human in this stresses Pope John Paul II in his public "Faith and Reason" ( Fides et Ratio ) that " divine revelation falls in time and history," reminding that Jesus Christ took flesh "in the fullness of time" (Gal 4, 4 ). And confirms Pope on it at a distance of a thousand j years of this event, "I feel the need to restate forcefully that the time in Christianity is of fundamental importance. In Time shows all the work Of creation and salvation, is manifested to us especially since we, by the Incarnation of the Son of God, we live and pre-empt, since now, what will be the perfection of time (cf. Heb 1, 2 ).
look to the existential The relationship between man and time: the human being to die
before we look to the Christian vision of time, pause for a moment to look at the way in which the treated one of the great philosophers In the twentieth century, the German philosopher Martin Heidegger ( Martin Heidegger ), who stopped, particularly in his famous book "The object and time" ( Sein und Seit ), re- Study object anthology presenting the latter in the light of the time.
starting point is the rights that Heidegger understands conceptually as "an object - here, is - here," ( Da-sein ). Being human is not being final, so to speak, but is the possibility of being. Simply put: Man is a project that has not been achieved after college, but is in the process of Continuous investigation of last Shaking his presence as a whole. This is a time frame - which can give a person in achieving existence. "Time" gives rise to rights related to its potential And unites his presence, and this is not possible without the phenomenon of the future, by which Aldazin back to itself.
future - according to Heidegger - is a fundamental phenomenon of time " ( M. Heidegger, Il concetto di tempo , Milano 1998, 40 ). Explains researcher Carlo Sini ( Carlo Sini ) the concept of Heidegger says this: "Time exists because there are things you should do it." Time It is not an abstract reality in itself, but is significant in the minds of human beings and, therefore, time is measured from the cases of conscience. This explains how there are difficult minutes seems like a lasting Dhora, and how there are moments of happiness with the passage of the bird. This does not mean that time is sentimental and by, but the bulk of what Nabgy statement is that intuition and consciousness in time we know we are Beyond the limitations of conventional measurement of time.
to return to the analysis of Heidegger, the philosopher describes the man as the object - about - death or object - to die ( Sein-zum-Tode ). The future certainly tell him that every human being is not necessarily death, and standardization of the object, for the existentialist philosopher, is through the recognition rate of death and to consider the presence of this vein. It is no secret about how the reader that this view is the credibility of the reality of abstract rights, rights in isolation from God and what is beyond nature.
the relationship between man and time: Christian perspective
Heidegger While we share the understanding that the future is the fundamental phenomenon of time (see first section of the article), does not share his Concept of man as an object of death, as an object is moving towards an inevitable fate of death and final. Death for us is the penultimate leg, and there is one final point and Ojerip give us a destination for our march, We will endeavor to review them now.
distinguished Jesuit theologian Karl Rahenr between the two sides of the faces of the future. The word "future" carries with it in general is to be achieved rights. This is the future Rahenr words: "What we expect today and tomorrow we're making, applying specific projects and users appropriate means that will allow us - and the issue is just a matter of time - that Translate the project on the facts "( K. Rahner,« Il concetto di futuro: considerazioni frammentarie di un teologo », in Id., Nuovi saggi , III, Roma 1969, 619-626 ). This calls Rahenr future, "the future Webmasters ground" ( innerweltliche ), he The reality has not yet entered on the facts of our world, but it will happen sooner or later, and when it occurs will sacrifice the reality of the facts of this history. That there had been talk as long as he is present, but sacrificing time with reality Itaiwih past decade and beyond, that the future goes on. This is the future if temporary, not a final fully, it is "pre-final."
but in the context of this future Webmasters ground testing of human freedom the meeting beyond the fatalism of time, enables the human freedom that opens in the heart of this "future Webmasters ground" on a different future, Than the future of its projects and accounts, what is different about the college about the same, on the other. On the horizon of our future, a future that we make, show signs of a different future. This future Which does not _gah in our plans and programs, is a true novelty ( novum ), and thus is the future because it is the privilege of what should happen, it is "absolute future." Since it is not The future fruit of human creativity, is the future of what remains behind all the moments of human time, and compare the moments of our time about this future we discover that they are all relative. This is the future that enters Our history is the right Alojeri ( eschaton - novissimus ), the axis that combines all the moments of our history, about the meaning that emerges from it attractive beyond our time and achieving the same eagerness subcontractors.
The German Protestant theologian Jurgen Moltman ( Jurgen Moltmann ) highlight a similar separating between the future he calls " futurum ", which expresses The reality of the occurrence, which contained the word " fieri " Latin. As for what corresponds to the absolute future when Rahenr Visemeh Moltman " ad-ventus " which means: access To, access, or simply the following (from doing " advenio " Latin which means: he came to, he arrived). Simple future and ground ( futurum ) is our progress in time, while the following ( ad-ventus ) is what \\ who comes to us, come to our meeting.
Christian future: the person of Christ
If we look deeper into the concept Christian to come ( ad-ventus ) we can see that the following is not an event but a people. Rahenr says: "The future is absolute is God himself, is an act of self-participation of college who Of its own accord. " Post completes this self of God in Jesus Christ, in the event does not go down in history as liaison time event but rather summarizes the history and brings together under one head, Christ is everything In heaven and on earth ( anakephalaiósastai tà pánta ) (cf. Eph 1.10). Through the incarnation of Christ into God in our history, but through the curvature of the Christ, the eternal in the human intervention God's love.
this future following ( ad-ventus ) .iin are between the time of the Church, the first coming of Christ in humility, our humanity, and His second coming in glory Divinity. Against this perception of time, beyond the Christian concept of human expression Heidegger (object - about - death) to make it an object - about - Jesus, object of Christ. Mooring rights by time Passes through the relationship. In our relationship with the other time derives its meaning, and begin measuring the time and my time is not a fact we read from the point of the clock, but we read subjective reality in the face and the look of the other. The word sacrifice human being - wait.
Chabiah awaiting the coming of Christ
after we saw how that man is an object to wait, and that, in the face of Christian consideration, Creature waiting in the "following" ( Adventus ), Jesus Christ. Here are some of the extent of the review that will help us to understand the meaning and how to wait.
waiting anticipation
submit Cardinal John Henry Newman in pastoral sermon some examples to explain the meanings of waiting and says: "Do you know what waiting for a friend, waiting Coming, and you see slow? Do you know what to sit at the annoying person, and you desire to go the time, the time comes, to free themselves from herewith? Do you know what is concerned is happening or not, or of waiting Is important, it fails to remember your heart when, first open your eyes you think about it? Do you know what is to have a friend in a remote, hovering on the news, day after day, wondering what to do in this moment, eyeballs, Is it in good health, fully? Do you know what to live for the sake of dear eyes follow his eyes, read Osarerh, notes the change in his face more accurate, never voice your wishes, you smile to his smile, and grieve for his grief, tremble To the dismay, and rejoice in his success? "(Pastoral sermons, 22)
through these feelings and attitudes of different Cardinal Newman seeks to identify the dimensions of waiting for Christ. Vantzar resemble Christ eagerly waiting for a friend, a sense of shortness of this life as compared with the beats in our hearts of hope and the hope of relief and change that is sweeping our thinking and monopolized. It is waiting Yearning and hope of talking about the Bible saying: "waiting for myself to the Lord, the most of waiting for the sergeants of the Morning" (Ps 129.6). It is waiting for salvation, which is expressed on behalf of the people of Isaiah the Old Testament As a whole: "Oqatri O heavens from above the clouds and rain friend" (Isaiah 45.8), and also: " also raise their eyes to the slaves by their masters and will also raise the nation into the hands of her mistress As well as our eyes to the Lord our God, even nostalgic on us "(Ps. 123.2).
feelings of waiting this is a valid and Mamdouhp feelings, and show us our need for salvation, and we can label This wait "wait-see," not bad Kantzar negative sense, but in the sense that the expected wait for everything from the other. Along with this wait, there's yet another waiting for Christ.
wait for the actor and creative
along waiting anticipation which is an expression of absolute confidence at the coming of the Lord and in his intervention, there waiting Another type of a supplement to the former type. Exhibiting in the following two examples of our humanity we demonstrated the characteristics of this waiting: waiting for the beloved sweetheart, and wait for the parents of the birth of a child.
waiting beloved sweetheart
if what we thought of meeting a loved one, we concluded some of the elements that help us to understand the creative wait. Confluence of the true lovers For the meeting is not never banal or commonplace. Without falling into the perfect romantic and vulgar, we can observe, for the experience or insight, that the loving yearning gradually increase with the approaching date for the meeting, And multiply the creative ability, is Vigda gifts and create surprises, preparing wholeheartedly and think of various topics that Sitkasemha with the beloved, it is a place waiting for the other Vidhi Present even if in his absence.
pending birth of a child
The news of the pending birth of a child in his family, and especially from the test awaiting the birth of his son or daughter in particular, Knows very well that the wait in this context is not just watching and yearning, waiting is the preparation and readiness, he added.
is set up: the creation of an environment that will receive the child, is Purchase supplies that will be required of the child, of a bed, a stroller, and clothing, bedding, etc. supplies. A clean environment of the bacteria in order to preserve the health of the child, and prepare To heat the house in proportion to the needs of the child.
is ready: fatherhood and motherhood are not two things occur in a trice to move men and women if the baby is born The status of fatherhood and motherhood. Pregnancy, as the time waiting, is a favorable period to prepare and to prepare for the growth and maturity in maternity and paternity, which were the march of the rest of their life. In this sense a pending birth creative factor, prevents the essence of those citations are prepared parents and expanded their hearts, and Mekheltehma Frdanitha and to accept another in their very presence in the heart of the binary. This Standby is the most important gifts that parents can submit it to the newborn if he is born.
the same way we can be like the readiness of active and creative in the "waiting" To prepare for the coming of the Lord. The Church teaches us through this willingness to Itorgitha, sequentially, according to every church is ready to weather the time of birth include meditation stages of the mystery of salvation, and interspersed This time, times of repentance and return to the self, and readiness. As the churches to devote some time fasting and repentance to prepare the way of the Lord to come.
Conclusion
launched This article from the philosophical view of man in front of the phenomenon of time allowed us to do a comparison between the look-to-human and time in isolation from God and look to the rights and time with the entry of God In our history. In the first rights is the object - about - death, in the second Man is the object - about - Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. Christ is the hope in the narrow space that date, The waiting is the longing of generations. This longing is not only a negative attitude Toukaia it is effective and creative experience.
following Christ is at the same time present Christ, Christ, who Fuels in our hearts longing wait thanks for the meeting has been and continues to happen, and fullness. Our meeting in the paths of our lives is not consumed Jeddah meeting, and the celebration of Christmas is a station along the paths Coming of the Lord, who are eager to meet him and to enter the intimate life of God is fully in the kingdom of the Father. The mouthpiece of the Church is the sound of that blatant in the wilderness: "Prepare the way of the Lord, make Straight paths in the desert. " Interpreted the time the meeting is Balozle and access in eternal love, and so Spirit and the church say: "Amen! Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus "(cf. Rev 22.20).
