Fundamentări teologice pentru filosofia politică a creştinismului primar: O încercare pe marginea teologiei politice ortodoxe
The theological background of political philosophy in early christianity, an essay on orthodox political theology

Summary/Abstract: In this study we aim to indicate the assumptions of orthodox political theology, more exactly to identify a mentality which configures an attitude that subsequently is expressed politically. The theological frames that gave expression to this kind of attitude, later assumed in byzantine political science, can be identified in the ground elements of Christianity: the dogmatic-martyric consciousness of the Early Church, the compulsory relation between faith and testimony, the mystagogical dimension of Christianity, the Christological context (with an emphasis on the Incarnation and Resurrection of Lord Jesus Christ), the transforming power of prayer, the assertion of the prophetic power of the Church, the apologetic view, the Eucharistic site that defines the relation between faith and testimony as a revealing space, generating concepts and attitudes.
