Diametrically opposed to Solovjev, Bulgakov defended that God entrusted theurgic might to the Church exclusively. Man through the
Churchs mediation is merely recipient of theurgy, never its creator. The Eucharist sacrament shelters sophianic knowledge that
is needed to begin the worlds transformation into beauty. Spiritual
beauty is not of this world, but it is bound to the Eucharist, the cradle
of life. Beauty in Bulgakov, and in Solovjev, is another expression for
the spiritual reunification of the created and the Uncreated, in short the
re-arrival of original beauty. Similar to Solovjev also Bulgakov hoped
for natures spiritualisation as condition sine qua non to beautys future
reign. Only, he focused on the Churchs tasks to reincarnate Sophia, the
beauty of Gods Wisdom, on earth.
