Abstract:

The author notes that serious discrepancies apparently exist be- tween Rahner's initial and later formulations of his theology regard- ing the supernatural existential Such a conclusion, if correct, would present a problem because Rahner's first formulation has com- monly been deemed to be a corrective to a serious weakness in de Lubac's theology which underpinned the nouvelle theologie move- ment. In order to solve this apparent anomaly, the author proposes a more comprehensive theology of the existential by elaborating Rahner's theology of grace for its intrinsic and ecumenical value.]
