So I take it that you prefer pride and arrogance.
Oh, don’t say that. Errors can be made with very good intentions.
And certainly if Athanasius says, “He became man so that we might become gods,” (which I believe), we have some ‘splainin’ to do about how that is NOT just anew version of what the snake said.
Personally, I believe that humility is part of the economy of the Trinity. The Son is perfectly humble to the Father, and our Lord uses the wonderful image of the unselfconsciously humble son who does what he sees his father doing, to describe his place in the Trinity.
In Christ, vivified by his spirit, the liberating grace of humility becomes a possibility for us. May it come soon. May HE come soon.
No, I accept my place under Jesus, who is the one and only Christ. Only He, The Perfect Lamb of God, is worthy to be called Christ. Non of us shall ever be a Christ except Him.
There are whole schools of false doctrine out there whose adherents believe not that they are under Christ but rather that they themselves have become as Christ, a Christ in their own right. They believe that power then issues from them as a god. They believe that they themselves are the source of this power rather than believing and understanding that there is only one power and that is God Almighty.
This is a very, very aberrant belief system out of the pit of hell. You would be surprised if you knew how many people are deluded into believing that they shall become a god but in their minds the god that they shall become or think that they are has a capital g.
