Theology of Pope Benedict XVI
The theology of Pope Benedict XVI, as promulgated during his pontificate, consists mainly of three encyclical letters on love (2005), hope (2007), and "charity in truth" (2009), as well as apostolic documents and various speeches and interviews. Pope Benedict XVI's theology underwent developments over the years, many of which were characterized by his leadership position in the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, which is entrusted with preserving the Catholic faith in its entirety.
His theology originated in the view that God speaks to us through the Church today and not just through the Bible. The Bible does not teach natural science but rather it is a testimonial to God's revelation.[1]

Cardinal Leo Joseph Suenens described charismatic renewal as: "not a specific Movement... it does not have founders, it is not homogeneous and it includes a great variety of realities; it is a current of grace, a renewing breath of the Spirit for all members of the Church, laity, religious, priests and bishops... One does not form part of the Renewal, rather, the Renewal becomes a part of us provided that we accept the grace it offers us.”[5] According to Cardinal Raniero Cantalamessa, "[Jesus Christ] is no longer just a set o
