Description
Taking note of recent developments in Luther studies and building on a historical tracing of the idea of salvation as union in Eastern Orthodox, Catholic, and some Free Church soteriologies, One with God argues that deification and justification do not exclude each other and that the 1999 Joint Declaration between Catholics and Lutherans is a biblically, historically, and theologically sound basis for further talks about salvation.
