Anthropology of apostle Paul is entirely existential. According to him human's life with all it's dimensions has it's source in God. In person's life there is nothing that would not come from God and not be his gift at the same time. At the same time Paul describes very clearly the human's sin. It separates human from God so much that he himself is not able too overcome it. The human condition is then dramatic but all the same it isn't hopeless. Paul strongly emphasize that there is salvation for all the humanity in the person of Jesus. The human for the apostle means homo salvandus – the one who needs rescue from God's.
