Za človeka gre : Jože Rajhman o Bogu

Lah, Avguštin (author)

Jože Rajhman se v svojih razpravah osredotoča na bivanjska vprašanja današnjega človeka in ga umešča v odnos z Bogom in Boga s človekom. Tako človekova razpetost med bivanjem in nebivanjem, med polnostjo in praznino, med smislom in nesmislom v svoji paradoksalni izkušnji vodi v doživljanje Božje vseprisotnosti. V vsaki »mejni situaciji«, posebno pa v trpljenju je človeku dano srečanje z Bogom, ker človek potrebuje Boga in Bog potrebuje človeka. S tem se afirmira dejstvo, da je Bog v resnici »Emanuel«, »Bog z nami«, in je Bog res Bog za človeka in v človeku. Tako postane očitno, da Bogu gre za človeka, da bi tako človeku šlo za Boga in za človeka. Bog je v bistvu Skrivnost, ki se ne da magično polastiti in uporabiti za individualne interese. V osebni odločitvi za Boga v veri človek dojema smisel življenja in potencial za ustvarjanje kvalitetnih medčloveških odnosov v družbi in Cerkvi ter kritično držo do družbenih in cerkvenih institucij.

• Title: It's about man : Jože Rajhman on God

Abstract

Jože Rajhman, in his discussions, focuses on the existential questions of today's man and places him in a relationship with God and God with man. Thus, man's split between being and non-being, between fullness and emptiness, between meaning and meaninglessness, in his paradoxical experience, leads to the experience of God's omnipresence. In every »liminal situation«, and especially in suffering, man is given an encounter with God because man needs God and God needs man. This affirms the fact that God is really »Immanuel«, »God with us«, and God is really God for man and in man. Thus, it becomes evident that God is concerned for man, so that man might be concerned for God and man. God is essentially a Mystery that cannot be magically appropriated and used for individual interests. In a personal decision for God in faith, man perceives the meaning of life and the potential for creating quality interpersonal relationships in society and the Church, and a critical attitude towards social and ecclesiastical institutions.
