The Church's primary task is ensuring the practical encounter of humanity with the Holy Trinity. This task aims for the Church to regain God's lost image in her because of sin; this, in turn, enables the Church to live through Him, on earth, and to embark on a pleasurable trip, during which she delights in heaven's deposit, through the work of the divine grace. This is the purpose of the Word's incarnation, His crucifixion, His resurrection, His ascension, and His second coming. He is the unique Divine Tutor - the philanthropic Saviour of humanity. Let the Lord grant us now the understanding of orthodox thought, and its instructive role in the Church's life during its estrangement to be propelled to eternal glory. This book discusses the following topics: 1. Our Lord Jesus Christ the unique Teacher. 2. Instruction in the School of Alexandria. 3. The view of St. Basil the Great concerning classical instruction and culture. 4. St. John Chrysostom's program of instruction. 5. Our instructional needs in the current generation.
