Jews and the State of Izrael in the Theology of the American Evangelikalism
Kovaříková, Hana ; Nosek, Bedřich (advisor) ; Beneš, Jiří (referee)
My diploma thesis on the topic of Jews and the State of Israel in the theology of American evangelicalism describes the role of the people of Israel in the history of salvation as revealed and developed by evangelicals in Europe (mainly England) and then mainly in the USA following the early church, pietists and puritans. Based on this theology, God did not finish with the Jews, the church did not replace the Jews in the role of God's Chosen People, as it spread and still spreads the so-called replacement theology, but on the contrary, evangelicals understood the irreplaceable role of the Jews in God's plan of salvation. They sow the opinion that for the second coming of Jesus Christ on earth, this time in the role of judge, general and king, in contrast to His first coming, which was a sign of the redemption of humanity from sin, it is a necessary condition that the Jews, the people of Israel, are be back in The Promised Land. From the first initiative, which came from the pietists (16th century), to the founding of the State of Israel (5/14/1948), plus minus five hundred years of work have passed. Evangelicals contributed in no small measure to the creation of the State of Israel. Another significant consequence of the evangelicals' recognition that the Jews remain God's Chosen People is the...

Jews and the State of Izrael in the Theology of the American Evangelikalism
Kovaříková, Hana ; Biernot, David (advisor) ; Vojtíšek, Zdeněk (referee)
My diploma thesis on the topic of Jews and the State of Israel in the theology of American evangelicalism describes the role of the people of Israel in the history of salvation as revealed and developed by evangelicals in Europe (mainly England) and then mainly in the USA following the early church, pietists and puritans. Based on this theology, God did not finish with the Jews, the church did not replace the Jews in the role of God's chosen people, as it spread and still spreads the so-called replacement theology, but on the contrary, evangelicals understood the irreplaceable role of the Jews in God's plan of salvation. They understood that for the second coming of Jesus Christ on earth, this time in the role of judge, military leader and king, in contrast to His first coming, which was in the sign of the redeemer of mankind from sin, it is a necessary condition that the Jews, the people of Israel, be back in the Promised country. The pietist movement dates back to the 16th century, the State of Israel was founded on May 14, 1948. That's plus or minus five years of work. I do not want to say that the creation of the State of Israel is the result of the activities of evangelicals. No way. It is God's plan to which evangelicals have contributed in no small measure. Another significant consequence of...

Death and Resurrection in Tolkien´s Essay "On Fairy-Stories" and in Traditional Fairy Tales
HOLEJŠOVSKÁ, Kateřina
At first, in the theoretical part of my bachelor's work, I explain the key concept of "resurrection" in both Christian and pagan contexts. Further, I occupy myself with Tolkien's essay "On Fairy-Stories", in which he, besides other things, deals with the main functions of fairy tales, which are recovery, escape and consolation. Afterwards, I pay attention to the rites of passage, related to life, death, and resurrection. In the practical part, I devote myself to the analysis of classical fairy tales in the context of the knowledge acquired in the first part of the work.

The Problems of the Soul in the Context of Christianity
KUČERA, Jaroslav
The thesis deals with the emergence of the concept of soul and its anchoring in Christianity. In this context, the theisis indicates the importance of the posthumous surviving element, that is crucial in eschatological expectations. It answers the question of whether the "soul" is a church mechanism to ensure the obedience of believers, as profane society often believes. By describing the eschatological concepts of two Christian wholes, one of which treats the soul differently, the thesis reveals consequences that culminate in a very peculiar interpretation of Scripture. Finally, the thesis shows the "soul" as a theologically necessary category to ensure a cohesive Christian system in the light of biblical statements.

Atonement and redemption in the novel Crime and Punishment with reference to Biblical texts
Kuthan, Robert ; Lukeš, Jiří (advisor) ; Drozenová, Wendy (referee)
Annotation: This thesis is an attempt for a religous interpretation of Dostoeyevsky's novel Crime and Punishment. The thesis attempts to interpret the novel from the perspective of redemption and atonement. It is not our aim to focus on seperate aspects of the novel. Rather, we wish to provide a complete interpretation of the novel through the religious theme of redemption. By means of Bachtin's method of 'grotesque realism' we observe the development of religous themes in the novel from the perspective of their carnivalisation. We observe the development of the resurrection theme in the novel and find this theme supported by various forms of symbolism of life and death in the novel. This thesis considers Lazarus's story in John 11 as central to the meaning of the novel and focuses on literary elaboration of this evangelical text within the novel.

If Christ has not been raised, our faith is futile (1 Cor 15:17). Christians and the Death from the point of View of the New Testament
Sluková, Jana ; Ryšková, Mireia (advisor) ; Scarano, Angelo (referee)
The aim of the work is to expound the Christian concept of death based on biblical texts. The opening chapter briefly deals with some passages of the Old Testament related to the subject. The section devoted to the New Testament focuses on the texts associated with the redemptive mission of Jesus Christ, from which Christian hope derives. The Exegesis of the 15th chapter of the First Epistle to the Corinthians provides more details of Paul's defence of the resurrection from the dead with regard to the doubts that have occured in this church community. The last part of the work tries to reflect on Christian faith face to face with death based on personal experience. This section also emphasizes the irreplaceable role of the Church, where faith is born, strengthened, shared and passed on in the community of mutual love that has the transcendent dimension.

Christian motives in poetics of a novel Resurrection from Leo Tolstoy
Bojková, Larysa ; Vasilyeva, Elena (advisor) ; Hlaváček, Antonín (referee)
Resumé Tématem bakalářské práce jsou křesťanské motivy v poetice románu Lva Nikolajeviče Tolstého Vzkříšení. Cílem práce bylo sledovat přístup autora ke křesťanskému učení v románu. První část práce se věnuje historii pravoslavné církve v Rusku, jejím dogmatům a tradicím. Dále se zabývá pojetím křesťanského učení Tolstého a z něj vyplývající idey "neprotivení se zlu násilím". Další část práce se věnuje románu Vzkříšení. Zkoumá, jak jsou hlavní ideová východiska v románu vyjádřena. Analýza textu odráží autorův negativní pohled na soudní systém. Lev Nikolajevič Tolstoj odsuzuje jeho nemorálnost a neefektivnost. Mluví o tom, že má soudní systém rozsáhlé negativní účinky na soudce, advokáty i všechny ostatní účastníky soudních řízení a osob součinných při výkonu trestů. Zákon není podle mínění Tolstého schopen spravedlivě potrestat zločince. Život odsouzených v nápravných zařízeních zcela znemožňuje nápravu. Rozřešení tohoto morálního a sociálního problému je spojeno s myšlenkami obsaženými v Matoušově evangeliu, což je také obsaženo v závěru románu. Dalším cílem práce byla analýza duchovního a morálního vývoje hlavních postav. U Maslovové i Něchljudova byl zjištěn dobrý duchovní stav do společně strávené noci. Poté lze u Maslovové pozorovat prudký obrat k nemorálnímu způsobu života. V Něchljudovově případě...

Resumé Tématem bakalářské práce jsou Křesťanské motivy v poetice románu Lva Nikolajeviče Tolstého Vzkříšení. Cílem práce bylo sledovat přístup autora ke křesťanskému učení v románu. První část práce nastínila historii pravoslavné církve v Rusku, její dogmata a tradice. Dále se zabývá Tolstého pojetím křesťanského učení a z něj vyplývající ideu nenásilí a neprotivení se zlu zlem. Další část práce se věnovala románu Vzkříšení. Zjišťovala, jak jsou hlavní ideová východiska v románu vyjádřena. Analýza textu ukázala autorův negativní pohled na soudní systém. Práce vystihla body, ve kterých Lev Nikolajevič Tolstoj vidí jeho nemorálnost a neefektivnost. Z analýzy vychází, že má soudní systém rozsáhlé negativní účinky na soudce, advokáty i všechny ostatní účastníky soudních řízení a osob součinných při výkonu trestů. Zákon podle Tolstého není schopen spravedlivě potrestat zločince. Život odsouzených v nápravných zařízeních zcela znemožňuje nápravu. Rozřešení tohoto morálního a sociálního problému vycházející z Matoušova evangelia bylo zjištěno v závěru románu. Dalším cílem práce byla analýza vývoje hlavních postav.

Picture of the last judgment in Renaissance Bohemia
Hejná, Tereza Rozálie ; Zlatohlávek, Martin (advisor) ; Nespěšná Hamsíková, Magdaléna (referee)
In my bachelor thesis I deal with portrayal of the Last Judgement in the Czech Republic in 15th -16th century. The first part was conceived as an introduction to Last Judgment - the Last judgment as a socio-cultural phenomenon; causes and history showing the last judgment; iconological-iconographic description of the subject. In the second part I'm devoted to the main topic, portrayal of the last judgment in Bohemia in the 15th-16th century. I'm trying to a compendium of all the works of art in our country, and they are especially frescoes. I also deal with the causes of their emergence, seeking their sources of inspiration and subjugation the iconographic-iconographic analysis. Then compare the individual works, not only among themselves but also with older parts that originated outside our area.
