Abstract: There are increasingly more competent opinions debating the situation of the Orthodox Church and even Christianity in the context of a globalized society. Basically, this debating is determined by the ideological and behavioural context of the modern man who, during the last century, entered a new stage of civilization development, ”jumping” from the industrial stage to the techno-informational stage. Could this represent a possible end of man? The catastrophe has been announced even since the beginning of the twentieth century by a number of researchers. In the twilight of history, just like a genuine Noah’s ark, the Church is forced to re-evaluate its experience in order to discover viable solutions in order to save, heal and preserve the whole human beings in Christ. The Church reacted to this internal crisis of the human society from the first three Christian centuries, through confession, martyrdom and communion, combined with the perfect brotherhood between bishops and priests, between the clergy and the people, in the name of God.
