This paper is about the Pneumatological influence the Orthodox theology has had on the mission affirmation of the World Council of Churches: Together Towards Life. It does so by presenting the World Council of Churches, Orthodox theology, the Pneumatology in TTL and the final chapter is a comparison of the theologies. By using the theory gathered this paper show us that the Pneumatology of the Orthodox Church has had an influence of TTL. This paper is written as a missiological study on the theology surrounding the Holy Spirit in a certain document, and it uses a hermeneutic approach I compare and analyze how the one has influenced the other.
