The third of the three volumes of Stăniloae's Teologia Dogmatică Ortodoxă, published at Bucharest in 1978 as a manual for the theological institutes. In the English edition it corresponds to the fifth and sixth volumes of The Experience of God (Holy Cross Orthodox Press): The Sanctifying Mysteries (2012), on the sacraments of the Church, and The Fulfillment of Creation (2013), on the last things. It completes the dogmatics, which moves from revelation and the Trinity through creation, Christ and the Church to the sacraments and the end.
