Galatians 4:4 says plainly we are redeemed that we might receive "adoption to sonship". The Greek word there involves adoption.
The Recovery Version leaves out "adoption" in that verse and just says "receive the sonship". But it's "adoption to sonship". And as we all know, adopted sons don't have the same "nature" as the father who adopted them. Lee's errors build upon themselves, and I think this is one of them. Numerous errors to peel back.

Nigel Tomes: LSM’s Deification Doctrine—Biblical or Blasphemous? This article address the thread topic -- "becoming God."
Nigel Tomes: LSM’s ATTACK ON ADOPTION This article addresses Paul's teachings on legal adoption. WL was totally wrong on this one. For starters, according to Roman Law, which Paul used to speak of our own relationship with God, adopted sons were chosen. Adopted sons had more rights than birth sons. Birth sons could be disowned, but adopted sons could never be disowned. This paper detoxed me from WL's leavened teachings on the subject.
