In addition, an attempt is made to render the Ontology of the person in accordance with the opinion of the Most Reverend Metropolitan of Pergamum Ioannis Zizioulas.

Finally, a comparison will be attempted between the assumptions that Orthodox Christian anthropology advocates for the person with some other theoretical approaches regarding the creation and evolution of the human entity. Regarding the method of writing the specific theological work, the thorough and careful study and discussion of theological texts and theoretical approaches regarding the importance of the formation of man based on Orthodox Christian anthropology is used. Under these circumstances, it is noted that this work constitutes a thorough study of the interpretations of human performance according to the view of Orthodox Christian anthropology.
