Netřeba, Tomáš ; Kolář, Pavel (advisor) ; Bravená, Noemi (referee)
The thesis "The Perspectives of Spiritual Service as Seen by Clergy of Prague Diocese of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church" deals with the phenomenon of the spiritual ministry in the Prague Diocese of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church (CČSH). It provides a historical and theological introduction to the spiritual ministry in the CČSH and a description of the current church orders that determine the current rights and duties of clergy. In the theoretical part, it also describes the personal prerequisites for spiritual ministry according to professor Rutrle, the current requirements for education and qualifications of clergy, and the challenges that accompany spiritual ministry in the Prague Diocese of the CČSH. In the practical part, the author, using a quantitative method of phenomenological research applied by the method of semi-structured interview with partially open questions according to Hendl, provides an insight into the perception of the current spiritual ministry by deacons and priests of the Prague Diocese of the CČSH and, at the same time, presents how the clergy imagines the possible improvement of their ministry in the perspective of the future.

The Influence Of The Separation Of Church From The State On Selfawareness Of The Czechoslovak Hussite Church
Zeitham, Libor ; Vogel, Jiří (advisor) ; Kolář, Pavel (referee)
Annotation: This thesis describes situation of financing of the church after separation of the church from the state. Thesis analyses financial relations in Czechoslovak Hussite Church and tries to guess future development of financing of the church and its influence to self-awareness of the church itself. The money in the form of a financial support will flow into the church for a long time (about 28 years from 2015). But ones, this limit will be reached. Then we will see whether the church is able to generate money for its activities based on the former financial support that has been receiving for long years and to adapt its structure and inner relations to reality. Otherwise, the church as an institution may diminish.

Miroslav Volf's theology of embrace in the context of CHC theology focusing on the question of eschatology leading to Christian engaged life
Sedlák, Filip ; Vogel, Jiří (advisor) ; Kučera, Zdeněk (referee)
Miroslav Volf's theology of embrace in the context of CHC theology focusing on the question of eschatology leading to Christian engaged life Filip Sedlák Abstract At the turn of the 19th and 20th century theology has reevaluated its basis so that eschatology regained its position of this basis. The view, which was kept only by the outsiders in the period of the Enlightment, has become a generally accepted one. The intensity of this shift changed in a variety of ways but it cannot certainly be said that it was overcome or replaced by a new wave until now. The importace of the eschatological viewpoint in contemporary theology has affected to a great extent also the theology of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church (CHC). However, the importace of eschatology in the CHC theology does not stem from the mentioned shift only, but has its historical roots in the Czech Reformation from which the subject of eschatology is inseparable, as well as in its understanding eschatology as an impulse to practical action perceived as preparing the ways for the Lord's coming which can eventually turn to the revolutionary dimension. The continuity with the Czech Reformation was declared soon after the foundation of the new church using the slogan: "Completing the Czech religious reformation." It is undoubtedly clear from many...

Ex 20,4 in the Theology of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church
Franková, Johana ; Vogel, Jiří (advisor) ; Kučera, Zdeněk (referee)
This diploma thesis deals with the interpretation of the 2nd commandment, known as "Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image" (KJV), respectively Ex 20.4 in the concept of theology of the Czechoslovak Hussite Church, represented mainly by the concept of Zdeněk Trtík, the main author of the official catechism of the Church. Trtík uses as a template for his interpretation a translation of the Kralice Bible, which seeks the most faithful translation of the original Hebrew meaning and which is in the conception of the second commandment in the line of the most important historical translations of the Bible, for example of the Vulgate. Most of these translations also correspond to their interpretations, which do not speak of prohibition on depiction of God. Trtík's interpretation, however, is clearly based on an interpretative tradition, oriented rather on the Zürich Bible, which emphasizes the non- depiction of God as an interpretation of the 2nd commandment. Trtík, however, transforms this tradition in his own distinctive way. Because these two main interpretative lines are somewhat remote from each other, I have tried to identify the specific reasons that could lead to Trtík's preference of one of the traditions, and at the same time to ascertain the specific or inspiration sources that Trtík could use...
