Meilander - autonomy and community
God calls each person by name - each individual person has great dignity
BUT, we are also social creatures and saved as a part of a community (the church) and have duties to
others


Meilander - free and finite
humans have free will and a spirit that transcends physical creation
BUT, there is also a responsible freedom under God's law and we are bound by physical limitations


Meilander - providence and freedom
all is in God's hands so we should trust in His care
BUT, we also have a duty to care for others


Meilander - embodied personhood
we are spiritual beings and are called to eternal life
BUT, our bodies are an essential part of us

In Christ, God took on human flesh - this makes the body even more precious
