Ontología e historia en el pensamiento de Joseph Ratzinger

the text explores the relationship between history and ontology based on the ecclesiological thought of j. ratzinger. the pneumatological easter event has made eschatology present in history; this is an eschatology that in a certain sense is already realized, and therefore, historically verifiable. eschatology means, in this case, "god with us," that is, "recapitulation of all things in christ" (eph 1.10), sacramental koinonia in the church. the pneumatological centrality and eschatology of christ is perpetuated ecclesiastically by conceiving the church as the sacrament of unity. christ is sacramentally perpetuated in the church. the church is the people and house of god, the place where men participate in christ's service to humanity, because there, in a cultual and existential way, in the liturgy and in the caritas, they learn to be a permanent offering in accordance with logos, to be "one in jesus christ" (gal 3.28).
