Ormond Rush Livres

Exploring the concept of sensus fidelium, Ormond Rush presents a systematic theology that highlights its essential connection to tradition, Scripture, theology, and the magisterium. He offers innovative insights, suggesting that both tradition and Scripture emerge from the faithful's sense, and that the inspiration of Scripture is best interpreted as the Holy Spirit's influence through this collective understanding. This work invites readers to reconsider the interplay between faith and theological foundations.

The book presents twenty-four principles derived from the Second Vatican Council's sixteen documents, offering a framework to evaluate the reception of its vision. Ormond Rush delves into the discussions and outcomes of the Council, highlighting how these principles can serve as criteria for understanding its impact and relevance in contemporary contexts. Through this analysis, the work seeks to clarify the essence of Vatican II and its ongoing significance in the Church and beyond.

Focusing on the interpretation of Vatican II, this book emphasizes the importance of understanding both the "spirit" and "letter" of the council's documents. Ormond Rush argues for a nuanced approach that considers linguistic aspects such as genre and rhetoric, alongside the historical reception of the council over the past forty years. He highlights the need for a comprehensive hermeneutical framework, ultimately proposing a reception pneumatology that acknowledges the Holy Spirit's role in the council's ongoing impact.
