TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Beyond the Text: Revisiting Jacques Dupuis‘ Theology of Religions JO - International review of mission A1 - Sydnor, Jon Paul SP - 56 EP - 71 VL - 96 IS - 380‐381 N2 - Jacques Dupuis (1923–2004) was a Belgian Jesuit and one of the Roman Catholic Church's leading theologians of religion. Dupuu‘ magnum opus remains “Toward a Christian Theology of Religious Pluralism”. In that work Dupuis attempts to reconcile the particularity of Jesus with the universality of the divine Logos. In order to do so, he utilizes the classical logos ensarkos/logos asarkos distinction. Although he is the Son of God and represents the sacrament of God's salvific will, Jesus Christ is limited by time and space, and cannot exhaust the mystery of God. The surplus of mystery, as well as God's universal intention to save are carried by the logos asarkos, or Holy Spirit, who is also the Spirit of Christ. The Holy Spirit points to and culminates in the ‘Christ-event’ but is not limited to it, because the Holy Spirit is found in all that is agapic in the world religions.
