Abstract
The author develops Lonergan's notion of dialectic in order to clarify the source of conflicting positions often arising in theological reflection in terms of religious identity. The assumption is that there exists a dynamic tension between two basic interpretations of Christian identity, specific-identity focus and general-identity focus. Examples from Balthasar's theological esthetics are used in order to illustrate this dialectic.
