THEOSIS: PARTAKERS OF DIVINITY WITH GOD<br />

PROF. M. M. NINAN<br />

The promise is that: We can be partakers of the divine nature .i.e. we can be sons of God - in the image of<br />

the Son of God - we can be gods. There is a reason for using the lower letter g instead of G. The early<br />

fathers had a deep understanding that the creator God is not of the same essence in their existence as the<br />

created man. We do not have the essence of the Trinity of God but we are united together with God in his<br />

energies - as we are the highest form within the creation sharing some dimensions together. The shared<br />

dimension was the emanations or energies from the One United Holy Trinity.<br />

That is short of being God.<br />
