Abstract

The subject of research in the article is theology, one of the types of knowledge and one of the disciplines taught in higher education. The purpose of the article is to determine the significance of theology as a scientific methodological approach based on philosophical analysis. Theology is considered as a way of expressing the structural moments of the mode of self-consciousness, and belongs to its sphere of ideals. Through a study of the genesis of philosophy, which is considered in the context of the formation of developed forms of self-awareness, the role of theology as a form of cognitive activity is revealed. Consideration of the sphere of ideals allows us to clarify its functional role in the structure of self-consciousness and determine the relationship of this sphere with theology as a methodological aspect of scientific research. The research methodology includes a logical analysis and a historical approach to identify the specifics of the process of forming the ideal sphere of self-consciousness. The scientific novelty of research consists in justification of theology as a necessary element for the formation of self-consciousness; in establishing the significance of theology in the formation of the sphere of ideals necessary for self-awareness; in substantiating theological as a methodological approach in scientific knowledge, the use of which allows you to more holistically explore the spiritual world of man.
