God created the world out of love and for love. Creation – especially created man – is an image of the Holy Trinity. Trinitarian theology shows communal features of the process of evolution, of times, space, and freedom, the personal specificity of the creative action of the Persons of God, and an eschatological perspective of matter and history.The created human person integrates body and soul, sexual and social dimensions, and is open to God. Because of human sin, Christ redeemed humankind and called everyone to cooperate in the communion of the Church and to eschatological fulfillment in God. In the face of environmental crisis, eco-theology integrates theological anthropology and describes different models of the relationship between man and Creation: man as master of Creation, a servant of Creation, and a ‘priest of creation.’ Characterizing this monograph perspective of communion helps develop environmental ethos and culture.
