Jesus Christ, Vincent de Paul, Self-Emptying, HumilityRésumé
Cet article propose une perspective christologique renouvelée en présentant Jésus comme « celui qui se donne », en s’appuyant sur des textes clés du Nouveau Testament et leurs implications théologiques. S’appuyant sur des fondements scripturaires tels que 1 Timothée 2, 6 et le paradoxe évangélique récurrent consistant à perdre sa vie pour la sauver, cet article met en évidence le don de soi comme élément central de l’identité et de la mission du Christ. L'étude aborde en outre le concept d'anéantissement (se dépouiller de soi) au sein de l'École française de spiritualité, notamment en dialogue avec Vincent de Paul, dont la spiritualité pratique et missionnaire incarne cette dynamique. En intégrant l'exégèse biblique, la théologie spirituelle et la réflexion contemporaine, l'article démontre que l'anéantissement n'est pas une perte, mais la plénitude de la vie en Dieu. En fin de compte, il propose le don de soi comme un chemin de transformation pour le disciple chrétien d’aujourd’hui, enraciné en Christ et orienté vers la mission, le service et l’amour.
