'Deification' refers to the transformation of believers into the likeness of God. Of course, Christian monotheism goes against any literal 'god making' of believers. Rather, the NT speaks of a transformation of mind, a metamorphosis of character, a redefinition of selfhood, and an imitation of God. Most of these passages are tantalizingly brief, and none spells out the concept in detail.

He is the author of The Background and Content of Paul's Cultic Atonement Metaphors and Problems with Atonement: The Origins of, and Controversy About, The Atonement Doctrine.
