Abstract

This article attempts to "God" and "time" two concepts to explain Augustine and Husserl on the theological point of view of theoretical relationships. Discussion focused on the following: First, Augustine describes how the "theory of light," "Memory" and "spiritual" and "time" issues such as thinking there is away to grasp the eternal God, and by God's revealed truth; In addition, that Augustine's theological point of view of the problem, then leads to Husserl the transcendental subject of "time consciousness" and "God" of the relevant thinking; Finally, Husserl's point of view to illustrate the divine and human nature between the corresponding relationship, thinking through the rehabilitation of relations between God and man the possibility of separation. In this article, I intend to clarify the theoretical relationship between Augustine's theology and Husserl's theological thought by analyzing the idea of ​​"God" and of "time." There are three main points in my research: Firstly, I will explain how Augustine can comprehend God's eternal Being and Truth with his reflections on the theory of illumination and the problems of "memory," of "mind" and of "time." Furthermore, by criticizing Augustine's theological ideas mentioned above, I will introduce Husserl's thought on "time- consciousness "of the phenomenological subject and" God. "Finally, based upon Husserl's phenomenological inquire into the essential relationship between divinity and humanity, I will try to propose a possible reconstruction of the disconnected relationship between God and human beings
