Both resistance to and renewed interest in the sacraments mark
current theological thought. This work acknowledges human
limitations of the sacraments but stresses that God's relationship
to human beings cannot be other than sacramental." Sacramental
structures and events constitute salvation history, and thus
permeate all theology. What makes this sacramental view
comprehensible is faith; faith is an indispensable precondition for
a sacramental theology.
Therefore, the author first demonstrates the preconditions of
faith on which sacramental theology rests, and what place it holds
within the whole of theology. Following this, he briefly presents
the concept of sacraments and the history of that concept, the
teachings of Church tradition on sacraments in general, and the
basic features of a sacramental theology. Next, he explains from a
theological perspective the traditional sacraments of the Catholic
Church, including related topics such as indulgences and
sacramentals.
