    Man is God\u2019s special creature. He is the only one \u201ccreated in the image and likeness of God\u201d (Gen 1:26<\/em>). He is created by God from the dust at the end of the process of creation (the \u201csixth day\u201d) and by the special will of God. He is made to breathe \u201cthe breath of life\u201d (Gen 2:7<\/em>), to know God, to have dominion over all that God has made.<\/span><\/p>\n

    God created humans as male and female (Gen. 1:27; 2:21<\/em>) in order \u201cto be fruitful and multiply\u201d (Gen 1:28<\/em>). Thus, according to Orthodox doctrine sexuality belongs to the creation which God calls \u201cvery good\u201d (Gen 1:31<\/em>), and in itself it is in no way sinful or perverse. It belongs to the very nature of humanity directly willed by God.<\/span><\/p>\n

    As the image of God, ruler over creation and co-creator with the Uncreated Maker, man has the task to \u201creflect\u201d God in creation; to make His presence, His will and His powers spread throughout the universe; to transform all that exists into the paradise of God. In this sense man is definitely created for a destiny higher than the bodiless powers of heaven, the angels. This conviction is affirmed by Orthodox Christianity not only because of the Scriptural emphasis on man as made in God\u2019s image to rule creation, which is not said about angels; but it is also directly affirmed because it is written of Jesus Christ, Who is truly the perfect man and the Last Adam (1 Cor 15:45<\/em>) that \u201cGod has highly exalted him and bestowed upon him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father\u201d (Phil 2:10-11<\/em>).
<\/span><\/p>\n

    It follows from belief in Jesus that man is created for a life far superior to that of any creature, even the angels who glorify God and serve the cause of man\u2019s salvation. It is precisely this conviction which is affirmed when the Church hails Mary the Mother of Christ as \u201cmore honorable than the cherubim and beyond compare more glorious than the seraphim.\u201d For what is glorified as already accomplished in the human Mary is precisely what is expected and hoped for by all men \u201cwho hear the word of God and keep it\u201d (Lk 11:28<\/em>).<\/span><\/p>\n

   Thus we see the great dignity of man according to the Christian faith. We see man as the \u201cmost important\u201d of God\u2019s creatures, the one for whom \u201call things visible and invisible\u201d have been created by God.<\/span><\/p>\n

    It is the Orthodox doctrine that one can understand and appreciate what it means to be human only in the light of the full revelation of Jesus Christ. Being the Divine Word and Son of God in human flesh, Jesus reveals the real meaning of manhood. As the Perfect Man and the Last Adam, the \u201cman from heaven,\u201d Jesus gives us the proper interpretation of the story of creation given in the book of Genesis. For as the Apostle Paul has written, Adam finds his significance as \u201cthe type (or figure) of the one who was to come,\u201d namely Jesus Christ (Rom 5:14<\/em>).<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

    Thus it is written, \u201cThe first man Adam became a living being\u201d; the last Adam became a life-giving spirit. But it is not the spiritual which is first but the physical, and then the spiritual. The first man was from the earth, a man of dust; the second man (Christ) is from heaven\u2026 Just as we have borne the image of the man of dust, we shall also bear the image of the man of heaven. (1 Cor 15:45-49).<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

    According to Orthodox theology, to bear the image of God is to be like Christ, the uncreated Image of God, and to share in all of the spiritual attributes of divinity. It is, in the words of the holy fathers, to become by divine grace all that God Himself is by nature. If God is a free, spiritual, personal Being, so human beings, male and female, are to be the same. If God is so powerful and creative, having dominion over all creation, so human creatures, made in His image and according to His likeness, are also to exercise dominion in the world. If God exercises dominion and authority not by tyranny and oppression, but by loving kindness and service, so are His creatures to do likewise. If God Himself is love, mercy, compassion and care in all things, so must His creatures, made to be like Him, also be the same. And finally, if God lives forever in eternal life, never dying, but always existing in perfectly joyful and harmonious beauty and happiness with all of creation, so too are human beings made for everlasting life in joyful and harmonious communion with God and the whole of creation.<\/span><\/p>\n

    According to Orthodox doctrine, human being and life is never completed and finished in its development and growth because it is made in the image and according to the likeness of God. God\u2019s being and life are inexhaustible and boundless. As the Divine Archetype has no limits to His divinity, so the human image has no limits to its humanity, to what it can become by the grace of its Creator. Human nature, therefore, is created by God to grow and develop through participation in the nature of God for all eternity. Man is made to become ever more Godlike forever, even in the Kingdom of God at the end of this age, when Christ will come again in glory to raise the dead and give life to those who love Him.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Thus the holy fathers of the Orthodox faith taught that whatever stage of maturity and development man attains and achieves, whatever his power, wisdom, mercy, knowledge, love, there continually remains before him an infinity of ever-greater fullness of life in the most blessed Trinity to be participated in and lived. The fact that human nature progresses eternally in perfection within the nature of God constitutes the meaning of life for man, and remains forever the source of his joy and gladness for all eternity.<\/span><\/p>\n

    It must be mentioned at this point as well that according to Orthodox Christian doctrine, the fact that humans are created male and female is the direct will of God and is essential for proper human life and activity as reflective of God. In a word, human sexuality is a necessary element in human being and life as made in the image of God. This does not mean that there is any sort of sexuality in God, but it does mean that human life must be sexual\u2014male and female\u2014if it will be what God Himself has made it to be.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Man and woman, male and female, are created by God to live together in a union of being, life and love. The man is to be the leader in human activities, the one reflecting Christ as the new and perfect Adam. The woman is to be man\u2019s \u201chelpmeet,<\/strong>\u201d the \u201cmother of all living\u201d (Gen 2:18; 3:20<\/em>). Symbolized in the relationship of Mary and the Church, the New Eve, to Christ, the New Adam, as the one who inspires man\u2019s life and completes his being and fulfills his life, the woman is not man\u2019s instrument or tool. She is a person in her own right, a sharer of the nature of God, a necessary complement to man. There can be no man without woman\u2014no Adam without Eve; just as there can be no woman without man. The two exist together in perfect communion and harmony for the fulfillment of human nature and life.<\/span><\/p>\n

    The differences between men and women are real and irreducible. They are not limited to biological or physical differences. They are rather different \u201cmodes of existence\u201d within one and the same humanity; just as, we might say, the Son and the Holy Spirit are different \u201cmodes of existence\u201d within one and the same divinity, together with God the Father. The male and female are to be in spiritual as well as bodily union. They are to express together, in one and the same humanity, all of the virtues and powers that belong to human nature as made in the image and according to the likeness of God. There are no virtues or powers that belong to man, and not to woman; nor to woman and not to man. All are called to spiritual perfection in truth and in love, indeed in all of the divine virtues of God given to His creatures.<\/span><\/p>\n

    The hostilities and competitions between man and woman that exist in the present world are not due to their respective \u201cmodes of existence\u201d as created by God. They are due rather to sin. There should be no tyranny of men over women; no oppression, no servitude. Just as there should be no striving of women to be men, and to hold the male position in the order of creation. There should be rather a harmony and unity within the community of being with its natural created order and distinctions. The oneness of nature with the distinction of various modes of being within Divinity, the Most Holy Trinity. For in the Divinity of the Trinity itself there is a perfect unity of nature and being, with real distinctions between the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit as to how each of the Divine Persons lives and expresses the common nature of God. There is an order<\/strong> in the Trinity. There is even a hierarchy<\/strong> if we do not take this term to mean some difference in nature between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, but merely the way<\/strong> in which the Divine Persons relate to one another and to man and the world. For in the Trinity itself the Father alone is the \u201csource of divinity.\u201d The Son is the expression of the Father and is \u201csubject\u201d to Him. And the Holy Spirit, of one essence and fully equal with the Father and the Son, is the \u201cthird\u201d Person who fulfills the will of the Father and the Son. The Three Divine Persons are perfectly equal. This is a dogma of the Church. But they are not the same, and there is an ordered relation between them in which there are \u201cpriorities\u201d in being and acting which not only do not destroy the perfection and perfect unity of the Godhead, but even allow it and make it to be perfect and divine<\/em>. It is the Trinitarian Life of God which is the Divine Archetype and Pattern for the being and acting of male and female within the order of creation.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
