Good response Sons. Thanks.

Verse 22: "And the glory you have given Me I have given to them . . ."

Yes, when I asked if Jesus taught theosis John 17 was on my mind. But that doesn't seem to be theosis as Lee taught it. In fact it doesn't seem to be speaking of theosis at all.

If that's true then we're theosisized (sic) when we receive the Spirit.

Christ in us is our deification.

But Lee gained his power by revealing mysteries. In fact, that's what the recovery was all about : Lee revealing mysteries, that have been hidden from all, until the great Lee came along. To bad we can't kiss his feet. Oh, are they still doing that ... in their spirits now?

Ya think!

Now that sounds like divine induced theosis. That happens "when he is revealed."
