PhD, Marko Božić Université ParisFINANCIAL HELP OF THE STATE TO RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIESIN FRANCE AS A LAIQUE REPUBLICSummary The aim of this paper is to indicate the complexity of defining the constitutional principle of the secular state. Although there is a belief that this democratic principle implies the lack of financial help of the state to religious communities, the legal constitutional practice of most states, even those with the most adamant separation of the secular and the sacral, points to a different conclusion. One example to support this claim is the constitutional experience of France, a laique republic. Even though in theory it forbids the state subventions to religious communities, the very law on separation from 1905 – the foundation of the French layman state –...

Dr Dimitrije Popadić Protestant Theological Faculty Novi SadBIBLICAL VIEW OF ETERNAL LIFESummary In this text, the author, in a fundamental way, draws the big picture of the holistic Scriptural revelation of the meaning of the creation of human being, and that as the Creator's extended hand of the good stewardship over this earthly part of His creation. Here, the humane being is understood as the God-like being of communion between man and woman, that are uniqly equipped to fulfill the Old Testament mandate to multiply and rule, in a way of good stewards, over this entrusted planet Earth. Unfortunately, the original sin has made the human race incapable for the fulfillment of this mandate. Thus, thanks to the consistency of the Father's Hearth of God, in the Person of God the Son and in...

Petar Petrović, MA Reformed Presbyterian Fellowship E-mail: rev_petrovic@yahoo.comRESURRECTION TO LIFE EVERLASTINGAbstract The promises of The Old and The New Covenants include physical blessing. Failure to understand this has caused The Church to distort the message of the gospel. Infected by Platonic ideas, The Church has often demeaned the value of the physical, and we are left with a negative view of creation, physical needs for enjoyment and sexual fulfillment, and other beautiful and good aspects of the created order. The physical was created by God and will be redeemed by God. We look not to the destruction of the heaven and earth, but to renovation – a new heaven and earth, where God's creation will be redeemed, not obliterated. Key words: resurrection, man, life...

Sergej Beuk Protestant Theological Faculty Novi Sad CALVINIST THEORY OF RESURRECTION,THE WESTMINSTER CONFESSION OF FAITHSummary In the presented text, author explains the theory of resurrection as it is represented by traditional Calvinist theology, from the beginnings of The Reformation till today. It is clear that resurrection is thorough assumption necessary for complete understanding of Christian religion because, without it, every speculation about Jesus Christ life, deed and meaning of His sacrifice would be pointless. Texts from The Westminster Confession of Faith, which are, with its thematic comprehensiveness, for centuries a landmark for Anglican/Episcopal and Reformed/Presbyterian churches, should be considered in that sense. In christological and eschatological meaning...

Nikola Knežević Protestant Theological Faculty Novi SadCONCEPT OF HOPE IN THEOLOGY OF JÜRGEN MOLTMANNAbstract Theology of hope represents fundamental principle of Moltmann's theological reflection and it represents his first major contribution to the wider academic community. Eschatology is key perspective from which all theological reflections should be derived from. Theology of hope makes eschatology its central governing concept; all other teachings revolve around eschatology, and are only properly understood in that view. The implication of this focus on the future is not withdrawal from the world in hope that a better world will somehow evolve. Rather, the theology of hope advocates active participation in the world in order to speed the coming of that better world. With...

Rifat Namliđi Novi SadPAST, PRESENT AND FUTUREFROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF THE ISLAMIC RELIGIONSummary Islam is both a religion and a complete way of life. Muslims believe in One, Unique, Incomparable God - Allah; in the Prophet Muhammad, s.a.v.s. through whom His revelations were brought to mankind; in the Day of Judgment and individual accountability for actions; in God's complete authority over human destiny and in life after death. The opening chapter of The Quran, the Fatiha, is central in Islamic prayer. It contains the essence of The Quran and is said at the start of every prayer. The sunna, the practice and example of the Prophet, is second authority for Muslims. A hadith is a reliably transmitted report of the Prophet said, did or approved. Belief in the sunna is part of the...

Srđan Simić University of East Sarajevo Orthodoxs Theologigical Faculty FočaCREATION AND RESURRECTION IN THE QURANResume The Quranic conception of creation, the world, and man, as well as resurrection suggests to European readers some Judeo-Christian aspects of Islamic exegesis and eschatology. Koranic exegesis discusses the creation of the world and man in six days, through the divine word "be", whereby all things are called into existence. The aim of the Quran is explicitly to point out that this world is a creation of the one and only God, and not by multiple divinities. Man, in the Quran, is created not in the image of God, but as a vicegerent (caliph) of God on Earth. The "signs and miracles" in Allah's creation, too, demonstrate that everything in this world is the work of the...

Prof. dr Radomir Videnović University of Nis Faculty of PhilosophyDEATH AS A MEASURE OF LIFEAbstract Death is life's word and the end of personal existence. But still, death is neither the ending of life nor the absolution of moral responsibility. That is why it is possible to realize the meaning of life precisely in relation to the limit of life – death. Thus, death is the key to the definition of a life a direction and tending to create and realize the meaning of life. "Ethics out of death" can grasp the whole of life precisely because it is on the border of life, outside of life – out of death. We spend our entire life between love and death. Love resists death and turns it into an act of creation. The highest moral act is sacrifice, a conscious and willing self/sacrificing which...
