Christianology (subdiscipline of theological anthropology) is a study of Christian being in ontological relationship with the Holy Trinity, which forms him and conforms to the role model – Jesus Christ and also leads him to the adored humanity. In the beginning author suggests that the special formulations used in Corpus Paulinum show relational character of Christian being, e.g. ‘’being in Christ’’, ‘’chosen by God’’, ‘’being in Holy Ghost’’ and parallel. The basic analyze of these theological contents allows to ascertain that St. Paul’s paraklesis is focused on Christian being in ontological relationship to Holy Trinity. Hence, most of anthropological questions are brought up in christianological perspective, which completes them. This aspect is noticeable when the christianology is conceptualized as a moral theology. In this moral christianology the purpose of Christian being is to achive a state of conformitas Christi. The Holy Ghost’s Grace leads believer to this aim. A christianological persective in moral theology is compatible with particular type of Christian spirituality form Corpus Paulinum. Therefore it can be named christianological spirituality.
