The Personal Human Relationship with God According to Nédoncelle

Abstract

In this work we study, according the Nédoncelle´s philosophy, the relation between the human person and God: does the human aperture to God lies, first and foremost, in the act of being, or only secondarily in his human essence? We indicate that this relationship is natural, radical, new, without repetition, free, knowingly and lovingly. We add that the human person is consciousness of this nexus, that we can call vocation; it can grow and also decrease. This union demonstrates that God is person and, by consequence, that is pluripersonal, which allows us to establish a personal relation between mankind and God.
