St Justin Popović writes,

"In all respects, the organism of the Church is the most complex known to man. Why? Because it is a unique theanthropic organism in which all divine and human mysteries and all divine and human powers constitute one body. Only the omniscient, omnipotent Theanthropos, the Lord Christ, could unite and assemble all this into one Body, His own, of which He is the eternal...
