On the Concept of Redemption in Understanding of Salvation by Bernhard Welte
Keywords:
Salvation, Human understanding, Fullness, GraceAbstract
The following text focuses on the book Understanding of Salvation, which was published by Bernhard Welte in the year 1966. The notion of salvation is a core idea in Christian revelation: God reveals Himself as salvation for the human person, as an individual one and also as mankind. In this sense, the concept of salvation has its roots in the structure of human existence: to every person belongs some notion of his/her own whole being, of a whole being of other persons and a whole being of the world as such. Understanding of being is therefore an understanding of salvation. This fullness appears in human understanding as a free donation of a divine You; the Christian experience calls it Grace.
