Summary/Abstract: The present work includes a synthesis in the light of the Christian-Orthodox teaching of the essential role of the Holy Liturgy in supporting religious-moral life at all ages. In the light of the texts of the Holy Scriptures and of the Holy Fathers, perfection is the essential goal of human life, the fulfillment of Christ's sacrifice on the Cross. Perfection is possible for every man, as an effort to assume the quality of son of God, for whom the Word became incarnate. The relevant texts were used to understand the importance of the Holy Liturgy and to highlight the way in which the Eucharist is a way and a school, the person's chance for self-discovery and permanent elevation towards the Father.
