The importance of Martin Heidegger's ontology for Bonhoeffer's theory building in 'Act and
Being' is evident. Recently several works have pointed out that Heidegger's philosophy influenced also Bonhoeffer's later writings. But hardly any of these works focus on "The Cost of Discipleship". This article recapitulates key issues of Bonhoeffer's early reception of Heidegger to reveal the terminological and conceptual influence on Bonhoeffer's hamartiological and soteriological considerations in "The Cost of Discipleship". This reveals how Bonhoeffer undertakes an inverse interpretation of Heidegger's philosophy of 'Dasein'. As a result, this article shows how Bonhoeffer makes Heidegger's ontological conceptualization theologically fruitful and further maintains crucial axiological differences with consequences for hamartiology.
