Kerygmat w ujęciu papieża Franciszka. Refleksje dogmatyczno-pastoralne
Kerygma in Terms of Pope Francis. Dogmatic and Pastoral Reflections

Summary/Abstract: Kerygma is a message containing the fundamental truths of faith and realizing the grace of salvation and the change that gives birth to real faith as well as the newness of life in Christ. This message resounds in the Church from the very beginning, because already on the day of Pentecost: “Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, raised his voice and ad¬dressed the crowd: […] you put Jesus of Nazareth to death by nailing him to the cross. But God raised him from the dead, freeing him from the agony of death” (Acts 2,14.23–24). Over time, the good news of Jesus Christ from the kerygma seed grew into teaching, dog¬matic rulings and theology, and the Church became the depositary, guardian and teacher of this truth. However, he did not cease to be a keryx and returns to the first message at partic¬ular periodes of history. Also, today’s successor of saint Peter proclaims the truth: “He is alive!” Pope Francis, returning to the proclamation of the kerygma, also makes a dogmatic and pastoral reflection on his essence. By preaching – he brings God closer to man, and by teaching about the first message – he introduces the kerygma to theologians and priests.
