Theosis is not that man becomes in all essence God, but that every part of the creation which form part
of the body of God functions as they are expected to in the process of maintaining the Kingdom. Just
as each part of the body is to function properly for good health, the whole four world Kingdom will

Eph 4:11-13 And his gifts were that some should be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some
pastors and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ,

is accomplished through the every day trials and overcoming of temptations.
Rom. 8:15-17 “. . . the Spirit and our spirit bear united witness that we are children of God. And if we
are children we are heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, sharing his sufferings so as to share his
glory."
They (those who love him) are the ones he chose specially long ago and intended to become true
images of his Son, so that his Son might be the eldest of many brothers. — Rom. 8:29

During the period of the ministry of Christ he must have emphasized this organic unity of all creation
and the need for mankind living as one organism that soon after the Great Commission and the
