English summary: The center of both Paul’s own piety and theological reflection is a person . According to Paul, the Jewish apostle to the Gentiles (K.-W. Niebuhr), everything depends on the relation to Jesus Christ. A consequence of this rather exceptional way of thinking is reflected in Paul’s language, specifically in the phrase in Christ which is the keyword of his Christianity(Adolf Deissmann). Emmanuel L. Rehfeld explores the content and the meaning of this phrase as well as its implications for the apostle’s anthropological, hamartiological, soteriological and eschatological views. He argues that a consistent understanding of these is possible solely within the framework of relational-ontological thinking. Ignoring this insight and approaching the Pauline letters with inadequate categories in language and thinking will most likely result in inconsistent or contradictory interpretations. German description: Im Zentrum der Frommigkeit und des theologischen Denkens des Heidenapostels aus Israel (K.-W. Niebuhr) steht eine Person : Paulus zufolge entscheidet sich alles an der Relation zu Jesus Christus . Dieses durchaus ungewohnliche Denken schlagt sich in der Sprache des Apostels nieder – besonders pragnant in seiner Formel vom Sein in Christus, dem Kennwort seines Christentums (Adolf Deissmann). Emmanuel L. Rehfeld untersucht den Sachgehalt dieser Formel und die mit ihr verbundenen anthropologischen, hamartiologischen, soteriologischen und eschatologischen Anschauungen des Apostels, die nur im Rahmen relational-ontologischen Denkens widerspruchsfrei zu verstehen sind. Wird diese Einsicht nicht konsequent genug beachtet, kann dies zu inkonsistenten Deutungen fuhren, die der Tatsache geschuldet sind, dass man sich mit unangemessenen Sprach- und Denkkategorien den paulinischen Schriftzeugnissen nahert.
