So the Father, Son, and Spirit correspond to the creation, hero, and transformation myths, respectively.Īgain, I’ve only finished the creation myth section so far, so I’m definitely might be wrong. Finally, the Holy Spirit is the person of God responsible for the believer’s sanctification (or transformation). Moreover, as pointed out by Jung, Jesus is the hero of the Christian myth. In the Old Testament, the Father was the active person of God involved in creation. Part one consists of three subdivisions entitled the creation myth, the hero myth, and the transformation myth.
