Man was created to be united with God, to become god by Grace.
This is salvation. This is theosis.
God’s Divine Economy aims for the salvation of man. This salvific truth is found only in Orthodoxy and Orthodoxy alone shows the true path to theosis, which is Hesychasm. The truth and the way were revealed to man by God, through His incarnation and through the revelation of the Holy Spirit to those found worthy of it, being: the Prophets in the Old Testament, the Apostles and the Fathers of the Church in the New Testament.
Saint Athanasios the Great clearly stated that the salvation of man is achieved because God became man so man can become god by Grace. The Orthodox don’t only believe in the True God, but they also know
God. The Orthodox know God because they can experience God, by “seeing” Him (theoptia) and by “gaining knowledge” of Him (theognosia), when they reach theosis, even from this present life.
A comprehensive treatise on the Orthodox Church’s way to salvation. How to become gods by grace.
