Introduction to Adult Catechism ClassOur goal as Orthodox Christians is to attain theosis. The way we can approach that state is through the cardinal virtues of faith, hope and love, which are the practical and directive goals set for man. To attain these goals, the Church, in its infinite wisdom has articulated the process through its dogmas, worship, and morals, respectively. Dogmas are the result of hope, and morals are the result of love. |
