Summary/Abstract: The Holy Trinity gives a vital fl ow of gracious living that fl ows from God the Father, through the Son and then pours into us through the Spirit. Including us into the circuit of Trinitarian divine love, which is received through the Eucharist, the vital fl ow of gracious living returns afterwards, raising to the Father the human spirit through the same Son. This living life which is communicated through Church is meant to make us belong to the Father, to graciously bind us all to God. It gives an eternal value to the human inside. Being a theandrikos environment, meaning a human-divine life, the Church doesn’t only overlap the religious life over the human one, but it rather gives to the last one, a deeply religious meaning.
