But they don't differ from scripture. Scripture says we have been given "exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers (koinónos) of the divine nature."

That is what the Church means by (to use the Greek term) theosis.

Any interpretation in a contrary sense, is in error.

We're in agreement: you, me, and the Catholic Church. OK?

No, I do not believe what the Catholic Church teaches in this regard.
