    What does it mean to be a son or daughter of God? A joint-heir with Jesus Christ? A possessor of all that the Father has? What did ancient Christians believe about the ultimate purpose of our creation? Do any other Christians hold similar views today?

    Since the restoration of the gospel one doctrine in particular seems to have captured the imaginationā€”and in some circles, the contemptā€”of the religious public. It is the doctrine of deification: all mortals may become like God, their Father in Heaven.

    In To Become like God: Witnesses of Our Divine Potential, author Andrew C. Skinner delves into writings of ancient and modern Christians to show us that what the Prophet Joseph preached was a restoration in its purest senseā€”deification is a doctrine that had been lost or explained away by some when Christianity descended into apostasy.

    With that restoration of eternal truths comes clarity. Our ultimate purpose in mortality is to receive the blessings of our divine parentage and the fight of Jesus Christ's Atonement: to become like Them.
