Abstract

N.F.S. Grundtvigs trinitariske folkekirketeologi i nordisk kontekst[Trinitarian Folk Church Ecclesiology by N. F. S.

Grundtvig we find a unique balance and interaction between what Grundtvig labels the first and the second creation (creation of heaven and earth and creation of salvation) by the one and same Trinitarian God. This makes Grundtvig outstanding in terms of the significance of the theology of creation in his profoundly elaborated Trinitarian theology. On this background Grundtvig is also offering a Trinitarian balanced ecclesiological understanding of the church which is decisive but still only rarely found in the Nordic Folk Churches.
