Summary/Abstract: The Liturgical and Eucharistic witnesses of holiness prove the basic principles of the Christian worship of the Christian as a creative process as a mystical act of fellowship between man and God and emphasized both the faith and the knowledge that the believers should gain. The main problems with regard to the Eucharistic holiness in this study are addressed in the following points: establishment of eternal holiness – foundation of the Eucharist, God's holiness - manifestation in symbol and reality, angelic holiness in liturgy, confession of belief in Eucharistic practice as a mandatory condition for consecration, „Εὐχαριστήσωμεν τῷ Κυρίῳ“, the Eucharistic sacrament as an expression of God's holiness in transformation and consecration, the sanctifying power reflected in Byzantine liturgies, knowing the truth as a way of sanctification in God, faith and reason - one in the understanding of God's holiness.
