This article describes the meaning of conscience according to the definition presented by the Second Vatican Council in the light of Thomistic and Carmelite perspectives and explains the depth of this definition, in order to dispel misconceptions about the meaning of conscience that are widely circulated, and show its proper role in the edifice of moral theology. For this reason, this article elaborates on the harmonious correlation between the two dimensions of conscience, namely, synderesis and conscientia, as well as the harmonious correlation they have with the virtue of prudence which is perfected by the gift of counsel from the Holy Spirit. The pastoral aspect of this article is presented in the end by analyzing the importance of conscience revived by the Church as presented in the apostolic exhortation of Amoris Laetitia.

O artigo apresenta a ética de liberdade proposta pelo Concílio Vaticano II para a Igreja e o mundo. Parte da afirmação: “Todos serão teodidatas”, ou seja, no íntimo da consciência todos os seres humanos abertos ao transcendente estarão unidos direta e imediatamente a Deus. Considera vários paradigmas éticos formulados pelo Concílio. No paradigma pneumatológico ressalta a centralidade da ação do Espírito Santo. A docilidade à Palavra e ao Espírito Santo constitui atitude fundamental para se viver em autenticidade da consciência e obediência à Igreja. No paradigma eclesiológico reflete sobre a Igreja Povo de Deus como comunhão no Espírito e do Espírito; como sacramento do Amor, dedica-se à amplidão e profundidade do Amor, o que é decisivo para o aggiornamento proposto por João XXIII. No paradigma antropológico, mostra a conquista da compreensão de unidade entre dignidade singular da pessoa e a imagem divina da tradição bíblica; sobressai-se o valor da liberdade e o dom da fé, que fundamenta a ética dos valores; esta integra e leva à perfeição a aspiração à liberdade e às liberdades.Abstract. The article presents the ethic of freedom proposed by the Second Vatican Council for the Church and the world. Part of the statement: “all will be teodidatas”, in other words, in the depths of consciousness every human being open to the transcendent will be united directly and immediately to God. Consider various ethical paradigms formulated by the Council. In the pneumatological paradigm the emphasis is on the centrality of the Holy Spirit. The docility to the Word and to the Holy Spirit is a fundamental attitude to live in authenticity of conscience and obedience to the Church. In the Ecclesiological paradigm the reflection on the Church, people of God, as communion in the Spirit and of the Spirit; as sacrament of Love, is dedicated to the breadth and depth of love, what is decisive for the “aggiornamento” proposed by John XXIII. In the anthropological paradigm, the conquest is revealed of the understanding of unity between singular dignity of the person and the divine image of biblical tradition; excels the value of freedom and the gift of faith, which is the basis of the ethical values; this integrates and brings to perfection the aspiration to freedom and freedoms.

Karl Rahner (1904–84) played a significant role in broadening the emphases of Roman Catholic ecclesiology in the decades before the Second Vatican Council (1962–5). He contributed notably to the work of Vatican II itself, and was likewise prominent in promoting a positive reception of the council’s ecclesiology. Rahner viewed the church in relation to God’s self-communication in grace. For Rahner, the church was a sacramental reality, formed by grace to witness to Christ in the world. The church’s sacramental role encompassed all aspects of its life, including its structures and organs of authority, which could not be ends in themselves. Rahner combined a deep commitment to the mission of the church in the world with a clear-eyed view of the church’s need to be self-critical and to remain open to the movement of the Holy Spirit, especially in the promotion of unity.

After noting convergences regarding the Eucharist between the teaching of the Second Vatican Council and the views of the 1963 Faith and Order conference, this chapter surveys a wide range of bilateral and multilateral ecumenical agreed statements on the Eucharist achieved in recent decades. It finds broad progress in them regarding three specific aspects of the Eucharist, namely, the links between the Eucharist and the Church, the Eucharist and the Holy Spirit, and the Eucharist and the future (or eschatology), respectively. It identifies outstanding issues, especially regarding the Eucharist as sacrament and sacrifice, and suggests how the progress provides a new context for tackling those issues. The relationship between baptismal and eucharistic ecclesiologies is then considered, and also ways in which the Eucharist has been recognized in ecumenical dialogue as influencing the structure of the Church. Attention is finally given to ecological implications of the Eucharist.

This essay begins by emphasizing that the Church is the gathering into one of the children of God, dispersed by sin. The idea of communion is thus vital for an understanding of the Church, and this communion is particularly a work of the Holy Spirit. The Second Vatican Council reflected intently on the nature of the Church, incorporating biblical and patristic emphases, in the light of subsequent scholastic discussions and with a constant concern to enhance the unity to which Christ calls all Christians. The essay then considers historically the development of ecclesiology though the Second Vatican Council. It ends by considering the shifts in ecclesiological teaching embraced by Vatican II.

Since 1950, studies of Luke–Acts have been influenced by a downgrading of eschatology (at least of the expectation that the goal of history would be near). Conzelmann's slogan ‘Die Mitte der Zeit’ (the earthly mission of Jesus as the ‘centre of history’) suggested a long ‘time of the Church’ with the gift(s) of the Holy Spirit as a substitute (and not a foretaste) of the kingdom of God. The present study challenges this influential view of Luke's theology and its impact on definitions of the genre of Acts.

The Trinity

The chapter explores three deeply interlinked aspects of John Zizioulas’s highly influential ecclesiology: the relationship between the church and the Trinity; the relationship between the church and the Eucharist; and finally the consequences of those relationships for the structure of the church. The church is a communion through its participation in the life of the Trinity. In Christ and by the power of the Holy Spirit, it receives and re-receives the gift of communion in every Eucharist, and communion has a shape that reflects the life of God. The Trinity is centred on the Father, and so in the church at various levels the communion of the many is centred on one who is the head. This is the purely theological reason why the synodality of the church requires primacy at the local, regional, and universal levels. The chapter concludes that, while prompting many questions and needing further development, Zizioulas’s proposal has great ecumenical value.

Essentially Contested Concept

The church can be identified either as the church universal (all believers through space and time and beyond time) or as a local congregation (and clusters of local congregations). It should be distinguished but not separate from the kingdom of God. There is no agreement on its identity because “church” is an essentially contested concept. All that use the term cannot agree on its content or referent. It is best seen as the gift of the Holy Spirit and its varied descriptions (both adjectives and images) should be seen aspirationally as promises of what the church can be in the wisdom and power of the Spirit.
