Resumen
Implicitly, Von Balthasar's theology offers many keys for a practical or pastoral theology. From the basic experience of being, the distinction between being and a being, and of a human being, we discover our individuality at: the same time as we discover our communal being. Balthasar develops a theology of the transcendence of being that shows us the basic capacity of reality to express the glory of God. But this capacity of reality is based, in turn, on creation being the work of Logos, who becomes flesh, and even more deeply in God existing in the other self, in the Divine Word. It is the christological entis analogy which supports the form (or the concrete structure of being) as an expression of the glory of God, which supports the possibility of a theological reading of reality. The article shows very well what the philosophical and theological foundations could be for being able to carry out a theological reading of reality.
