Collins, Paul M.
Partaking in Divine Nature Deification and Communion Paul M. Collins - UK T&T Clark 2010 - 222tr. Hardcover, Illustration 24 cm
Paul Collins does a wonderful job of presenting a florilegia of authors and traditions towards elucidating a modern appropriation of a theology of theosis. He creatively builds upon a complementarity of approaches, of what it means to become holy and transfigured by divine grace, by drawing upon early church traditions, Eastern Orthodoxy and Western Christianity, and their rootedness in the Scriptures, with a view to showing how deification is at once personal, yet ecclesial and cosmic.
