“…16 Dupuis' trinitarian framework seeks to overcome the pitfalls of both exclusivist and inclusivist paradigms without falling into the pluralist paradigm, seeking to combine a robust, christological inclusivism with an affirmation of religious pluralism in principle. Truth and grace found elsewhere must not be reduced to 'seeds' or 'stepping stones' simply to be nurtured or used and then superseded in Christian revelation.…”

“…Dupuis insists on holding together the universal presence of Christ (via Spirit and Logos Christology) with the particularity of salvation through Christ (via trinitarian Christology). 7 This salvific significance of Christ, far from being exclusive, must be understood in radically inclusive terms on the basis of the cumulative effect of the following, five principles.…”

“…their role does not consist in saving; it is limited to pointing to paths where salvation through the mystery of Christ may be encountered." 10 Fourth, the concrete mediation of divine grace happens through the other religious traditions in their historical, social forms. 11 Fifth, the Spirit may be doing something truly different from what one finds in Jesus Christ as the incarnate Word of God, precisely in and through other religions as social structures, yet never contradictory to the revelation of Christ.…”

The fact of religious pluralism demands a theological response. Recent models for engaging religious pluralism overcome the shortcomings of traditional models. However, they inadequately address the categories of sin and divine hiddenness, while struggling to articulate a coherent relationship between dialogue and proclamation. The classic Lutheran tradition offers three fruitful resources (the gospel as promise, the law/gospel distinction, and the hiddenness of God) for engaging religious pluralism and balancing interreligious dialogue and gospel proclamation.

“…As Dupuis explains: ‘There is then salvation apart from the gospel, although it is not a salvation apart from Christ or apart from him. The operative presence of the mystery of Jesus Christ in the other religious traditions is certainly hidden and remains unknown to their adherents, but it is not thereby any less real.’…”

“…The operative presence of the mystery of Jesus Christ in the other religious traditions is certainly hidden and remains unknown to their adherents, but it is not thereby any less real.' 29 Proponents of this newer model of revelation seem to connect nature and grace more closely together. Inspired by the theology of Karl Rahner, these theologians argue that God does not operate purely in an interior and/or individualistic manner.…”

One of the main challenges to interreligious dialogue is in locating a proper balance between commitment to one's own religion while maintaining openness to the other. 1 "Can one combine openness and identity, dialogability and steadfastness in the interreligious dialogue?" 2 It is generally understood that the problem of the tensive relationship between identity and openness should be addressed from a theological perspective and that interreligious dialogue should be based on a correct theological evaluation of religious traditions. It is up to theological reflection to clarify why Christians must be open-or, conversely, should not be open-to those of other religions. It is theology that sets limits as to how far that openness extends and if there should be limits to one's openness when encountering the religious other. If Christians are to become more open, the questions of why this openness is appropriate (or not) and how this openness to the faith of another is related to one's own faith commitment, are answered, one by one, through theological reflection on, and interpretation of, religious diversity.In the first section of this article I explicitly take up the challenge of reflection from a theological perspective on the relationship between faith commitment and openness. This implies turning to the so-called theology of religions and the threefold soteriological typology of exclusivism, inclusivism and pluralism. My primary interest is to show precisely how the Christian
