The well known in the Orthodox world as Theology of Person derives
from the communion that exists between the three persons of the Holy
Trinity. If someone considers as a purpose the quote “you shall be holy, for I am holy” (1
Peter 1: 16), should try to implicate in his life the communion of the
person, best known as community with the other. That is the aspect we
will try to illuminate in this short communication, trying to base our
thoughts in the works of the Fathers. We will also refer and comment the
writings by John Zizioulas, Kallistos Ware, Christos Yannaras and other
authors and last but not least, we will explore the meaning of the
Greek words κοινωνια, ατομο, και προσωπο (Communion, atom and person)
found in the patristic citations, in order to examine the Consensus
Patrum in this aspect.
