{"product_id":"theosis-the-true-purpose-of-human-life","title":"Theosis: The True Purpose of Human Life","description":"The beauty of this book is its simplicity. In clear and simple terms it states the original purpose of the Christian life – namely Theosis. The idea of Theosis will be unfamiliar to the Westernmind, although it is not a new concept to Christianity. When Christ said, “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand,” this is a call to a life of Theosis.\n\nTheosis is personal communion with God “face to face.” To the Western mind, this idea may seem incomprehensible, even sacreligious, but it derives unquestionably from Christ’s teachings. Jesus Christ was the fulfillment of the messianic dream of Israel; His mission to connect us with the Kingdom of God – a Kingdom not of this world.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0CJDC21QT\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: BVV.B0CJDC21QT.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:George, Archimandrite\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: The item shows wear from consistent use, but it remains in good condition and works perfectly.
