In MAGNIFICA HUMANITAS, Pope Leo XIV’s first and newest encyclical, the definition of human dignity from a Christian perspective is beautifully explained by Our Holy Father.
MAGNIFICA HUMANITAS: Human Dignity
“At the heart of the Christian understanding of the human person lies the great biblical affirmation that men and women are created in the image and likeness (cf. Gen 1:26-27) of the Triune God.
Pope Leo XIV | MAGNIFICA HUMANITAS
Created for relationship, every human person is planned and willed by God to enter into communion with him, with others and with creation.
Human dignity does not depend on a person’s abilities, wealth or position in life, nor on the right or wrong choices made; instead, it is a gift that precedes and transcends each person, endowed by God as an expression of his unfailing love.
For this reason, the human person always remains the “way for the Church” [55] and the heart of every authentic path of integral human development.
