  Abstract:  Dogmatic Ideas in Andrei Şaguna’s Mitropolitan Discourses. Although Andrei Şaguna’s sermons are maked up for the Church’s feasts, it are not limited only at historical relating of the events or the lives of saints, but it presents fundamental teaches of the Christianism. It contents numerous and very clear dogmatic ideas. We find elements of Christian anthropology, providence and Christology. The Mitropolitan speaks about Church as salvation’s organ, the egality between men before God, the universalism of salvation, Holy Tradition as modality of preservation and transmision of the Revelation, the two condition of subjective salvation: faith and good actions, the sacramental character of the stage of Church’s hierarchy, Baptism, Confession and Eucharisty, veneration of saints, icons and relics and Mother of God, universal judgment and the Resurrection of alls. The sermons have good foundation on biblic and dogmatic fields, resorting to liturgic texts from ritual books, so called doxologic dogmatics. 

Keywords: Andrei Şaguna, dogmatic ideas, discourses, Christology, Sacrament, Liturgy.
