The Redemption of the Savior is that He sacrificed the greatest denarius for a measure of universal wheat, that is to say, a measure of the universal decay. It was a price to pay for the victory upon entropy and death. To save the universe, it was necessary to give a particular life that exceeded the price of the whole universe, the life which was bigger than the universe itself. Only the soul of God-man is so big.

God put all this extraordinary power in the hands of man, but with one major condition, the life-givingpower of God is not a dead nuclear energy which it is possible to subtract in combustible elements and distribute between stations. The energy of God is an external life of Holy Trinity; it is a spiritual blood of the Lamb, by means of which is created our world.
