Summary/Abstract: In this paper, I compare Paul Johannes Tillich’s existentialist theology with the traditionalist Protestant theological position, as reflected especially in the Second Helvetic Confession and its commentaries. The comparison starts from Tillich’s interpretation of God and existence, which I contrast with sections from the Second Helvetic Confession. One of the main goals of this paper is to bring Paul Tillich’s theology closer and interpret it through the traditional (primarily Reformed) Protestant perspective. In this thesis, I have relied primarily on Paul Tillich’s fundamental works and on studies based on those.
