Fellow Workers with God: Orthodox Thinking on Theosis

In Fellow Workers with God Norman Russell draws upon ancient and modern sources, in addition to his weightier work Deification in the Greek Patristic Tradition, to sharply focus upon the meaning and process of "theosis." Here, Russell presents this teaching with breathtaking clarity concluding that theosis is not merely salvation from sin but entry into the fullness of the divine life, which is humanity's ultimate destiny. An excellent historical discussion on an important doctrine of the Eastern tradition.
