Znaczenie poznania prawdy w Duchu Świętym w procesie wyzwolenia w ujęciu ks. F. Blachnickiego
The importance of knowing the truth in the Holy Spirit in the process of liberation as understood by Fr. Franciszek Blachnicki

Summary/Abstract: Speaking about the role of knowing the truth in the liberation process, Fr. Blachnicki emphasized the experience of God’s action that brings liberation through Jesus Christ in the Holy Spirit. According to him, freedom in its deepest essence is dependence – however, it is a dependence that has been voluntarily accepted. For the human will is free only in so far as it consciously chooses what reason reveals as truth and value. The perfection of man and his liberation consists in the inner harmony between the will and the truth that has been recognized; therefore, no one can deprive a man of freedom but himself when he closes himself off to love and truth. A person who voluntarily surrenders his/her life to the truth he/she has recognized remains free even in the face of the greatest danger. The experience of freedom awakens in man a desire to serve and live for others, above all in matters concerning their salvation. Such existence, which is pro-existence, is possible for man in the Holy Spirit. Nature contaminated by sin focuses man on his own ”self”, while the Holy Spirit pours into his heart the dynamics of love, which consists in having himself in self-giving. The more one submits oneself to the Holy Spirit, the more fully one realizes one’s call to freedom as a child of God.
