Chamados e interpelados à justiça e ao amor: uma teologia da vocação e suas implicações éticas

Abstract

This research has as its material object Justice and Love as a call from God to men and women as a formal object the Theology of vocation. It seeks to articulate Theology, Phenomenology and Anthropology, as an approach to vocation theology centered on the idea of the call-response. For that, it will start from the religious experience of man and his dependence on God. As a priest present and active in the Church of Brazil, more specifically in the Church of São Paulo, it is imperative to study in depth on important issues of the Church. One of them is related to vocation. It aims to deepen the study and understanding of what is the vocation and the phenomenon that presents itself in the modern world from the considerations of the thinker Paul Ricoeur, Rubio, Oliveira, Maia, Comblin, Boff, Xavier and the documents of the Church's Magisterium. Therefore, it is an exploratory, qualitative and bibliographic study. The results found point to an unveiling of the desire of God that everyone longs for and seeks Holiness as a life project, aligned with a proposal of true fraternity, with a conception of a Kingdom of peace and love that unfolds in the practice of Justice, by rescuing the dimension of prophetism in human history, based on the Word of God, which guides and inspires men and women to seek feeling for their existence, to live intensely and with meaning
