Psalm 82:6 (NRSV) — Theosis

Origen

Thou shalt resemble Him . . . having made thee even God to his glory.

Who so loved the world that he gave his own life, that as many as would believe might become the sons of God.

Lorenzo Snow

We should strive earnestly to establish the principles of heaven within us, rather than trouble ourselves in fostering anxieties like the foolish people of the Tower of Babel, to reach its location before we are properly and lawfully prepared to become its inhabitants. Its advantages and blessings, in a measure, can be obtained in this probationary state by learning to live in conformity with its laws and the practice of its principles. To do this, there must be a feeling and determination to do God’s will.
