Paragraph 1. THE SON OF GOD BECAME MAN
460
The Word became flesh to make us “partakers of the divine
nature”:78 “For this is why the Word became man, and the Son
of God became the Son of man: so that man, by entering into communion with the
Word and thus receiving divine sonship, might become a son of
God.”79 “For the Son of God became man so that we might
become God.”80 “The only-begotten Son of God, wanting to make
us sharers in his divinity, assumed our nature, so that he, made man, might
make men gods.”81
