本研究從郎尼根的神觀、人學、神學與神學方法等方面來瞭解他的歸依觀。郎尼根一生致力於神學的教學與研究，他體驗到人受內在那股不止息的動力所推動，會去探知「已知的未知」。在認知的經驗、理解、判斷與抉擇的過程中，人努力在智性、道德與宗教等層面自我超越。神的愛也藉著聖神傾注在人心中，引導人的歸依轉化。郎尼根的《神學方法》的八個功能專務可分為兩個階段，這兩個階段的關鍵就是歸依。對郎尼根而言，歸依是神學的基礎，尤其是神學家在智性、道德、與宗教等方面的歸依，如此才能把歸依經驗客觀化並進行研究。透過留心經驗、明智理解、合理判斷與負責抉擇的超驗規誡，人達到本真，也讓歸依經驗成為更新神學的基礎。

The aim of this study is to understand Lonergan’s conversion through his concept of God, anthropology, theology and theological methods. Devoted to teaching and doing theology, Lonergan noticed an unceasing inner motive, pushing people to explore the “known unknown.” In the process of experience, understanding, judgment and decision, people make efforts to achieve intellectual, moral, and religious self-transcendence. The love of God floods human hearts through Holy Spirit to guide people to convert. The aim of theological study is to know God. The linchpin of Lonergan’s theological thought is conversion, which is also the key point of Method in Theology. With theologians’ conversion in intellectual, moral, and religious aspects, the experience of conversion can be objectified and investigated. Through transcendental precepts of being attentive, intelligent, reasonable, and responsible, people achieve authenticity and conversion experience can be the foundation of renewal theology.
