THE SOCIAL DIMENSION OF FAITH

Abstract

Faith is an answer of the human being to God’s Revelation. The human being believes because he has a relationship with God. For the human being this relationship is not something additional, but results directly from his nature. Therefore, it is absolutely recognized that the human being is a religious being. And since it is also a social being, so the question of the social dimension of faith, from a methodological point of view, is a simple example of its religious-social nature oriented towards the Transcendent God. As to the heart of the matter, both the human’s relationship to God and his relationship to the other is a personal relationship. The full definition of the human being has to take into account his personality, religiosity and community.
