本文的目的，是以卡爾．拉內的超驗基督論，論證「人人皆可以為基督」。儒家認為「人皆可以為堯舜」。雖則現實生活中，由於受限於種種主觀與客觀因素，並非人人都會成為堯舜，但孟子所強調的，是人人皆有潛能成為堯舜，作不到的原因，並非不能，而是不為。因為堯舜之道，便是力行孝悌。要成為堯舜，並非要求人作何種超人的行實。孝悌是平易之道，人人都能實踐孝悌，只要在日常生活中努力實踐孝悌之道，發揮潛能，都有可能成為像堯舜一樣的賢人。創造之初，人性受到恩寵的塑造，擁有超越自己的潛能，所以人是在世的精神，也是天主聖言的聆聽者。「人人皆可以為基督」並非表示人可以變為神，而是人受召以基督的自我超越為典範，參與基督的逾越奧蹟，藉此參與天主的生命，在基督內不斷超越自己，回歸天主聖父。人人皆有超越自己的潛能，只要以基督為榜樣，努力完成自我超越的歷程，便能成為與降生成人的基督一樣的聖人。如此，不單人人皆可能成為基督，更是回應天主召喚的必經途徑，是人生的絕對目標。至此，「人人皆可以為基督」的命題完全成立。

This essay aims at arguing for the statement “Each and every one of us can become Christ” in the light of Karl Rahner’s Transcendental Christology. Confucianism theorizes that “Each and every one of us can become Yao and Shun”. In real-life situation, owing to subjective as well as objective constraints, not each and every one of us can become Yao and Shun. But what Mencius emphasizes is that each and every one of us has the potential to become Yao and Shun. The reason for not becoming Yao and Shun is not that it is impossible but that we have not endeavored. The way to become Yao and shun is to practice xiao and ti. It is not necessary to do super-human acts to become Yao and Shun. Xiao and ti are ordinary means which each and every one of us can implement. What matters is to exploit all our potential and to endeavor practicing xiao and ti in daily life. In this way, all can become holy men as Yao and Shun. In the very act of being created, human nature is stamped and determined by grace. Endowed with the potential for self-transcendence, human is spirit in the world and hearer of God’s Word. The statement “Each and every one of us can become Christ” does not mean human becoming divine. It rather means that human is called to take Christ as the paradigm for self-transcendence, to take part in His Paschal Mystery and, hence, to take part in God’s divine life. Self-transcending in Christ unceasingly, human returns to God the Father. Each and every one of us has the potential for self-transcendence. Taking Christ as the model and endeavoring to fulfill our self-transcendence, each and every one of us can become saint as the incarnate Christ has. Therefore, it is not only possible for each and every one of us to become Christ but is the necessary way to answer God’s calling, the absolute end of our lives. Thus, the statement “Each and every one of us can become Christ” is fully established.
