Summary/Abstract: Catholicos Patriarch of All Georgia Ilia II, with theological and philosophical thinking, in his epistles presents in depth the phenomenon of God, Motherland and Exigence, he gives us an original Christian approach to the issue. His theological thinking is based on three principles: “God, Mother Land, Exigencies”. God as an eternal truth. Motherland as “mine, also yours,” as a human community that cares, patronizes, caresses, and prays for a piece of land called the Motherland, which the Lord granted us as our heritage. This is the face of my, yours, ours, and finally, our Motherland. The Motherland is the estate, the place of our birth, and There is discussed a culturological essence and importance of Exigence in Georgian worldout look, in which the most beautiful, excellent, good things are for a stranger, a guest, a foreigner. The main point is that a human being is sent by God - whoever he may be Georgian and not, Christian or not Christian, enemy or friend. To be a guest means to be an Exigence and has to be respected as a person sent by God.
