100 Olympic Games in honor of life. -God Zeus-
The statue of god Zeus is placed in front of temple in Olympia. Next to him, is standing the unknown god Jesus Christ, like the Child of Father, semi-invisible. In front of gods, athletes are struggling. The most meritorious of all, are taking the olive brunch as a reward from angel Νίκη. The glory for god and virtuous people was the meaning of Olympic Games. ​
It’s based on Gospel: “God is always inside us”, “I am the source of life” and also based in Aristotelian: “The whole life I God”. So we end up talking about “cohabitation” with God.
Zeus = Life. Life = God.
