This article is an attempt to show the realism of the body in Christian spirituality in the field of creation, redemption and the sanctification of a man. On the first level, it presents the basic structure of the human being body-soul and other elements (mind, heart, spirit, sexuality, conscious and free activity which transforms the world) of the dynamically understood divine image in a man focused on his archetype – Christ and the recovery of similarity to God and the change of “sinful body” into the “spiritual body”. The road to this form of transformation of a man comes from the truth of the Incarnation of Christ and its presence in the paschal mystery, when the individual body of Jesus became the sacrament of the body of Christ and in the Holy Spirit it gave birth to His Mystical Body, the Church. The author explains the realism of the body of Christ in the Eucharist and how it is experienced by believers who engage the spirit and dedicate their bodies to God as a sacrifice. Then he explains the function of the sign and the tool of the body in a Christian prayer, in the attitude to others and in the implementation of the tasks of the Christian life.
