Christ the Saviour, the fullness of goodness in the writings of Origen
Rev. Dr. Ștefan Zară The goodness of God as an essential attribute of the divine-human Person of the Saviour Jesus Christ is analysed through the lens of the theology of Origen, the great Alexandrian patristic writer. The article examines how Origen integrates this soteriological theme into a rich patristic tradition, demonstrating that Christ is the fullness of all goodness, and that man shares in this goodness through grace, repentance and life in the Holy Spirit.
