Sadly, the doctrine of justification by faith is virtually absent from the history and theology of the Orthodox Church. Rather, Orthodoxy emphasizes theosis (literally, “divinization”), the gradual process by which Christians become more and more like Christ.
Sa halip, binibigyang diin ng mga orthodox ang theois (literal na pagiging diyos), ang unti unting proseso kung saan ang isang Kristiyano ay magiging kagaya ni Kristo.
