Advances in ecumenical conversations have challenged the traditional opinion according to which the Lutheran view of justification by faith has been thought to be opposed to both the Eastern Orthodox doctrine of \u003ci\u003etheosis\u003c\/i\u003e (deification) and the Roman Catholic view of justification, which also includes sanctification.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eOne With God \u003c\/i\u003eKärkkäinen points out that amidst all the differences between the East and West with regard to theological orientations and the language and concepts for soteriology, there is a common motif to be found: union with God. Both the Eastern understanding of \u003ci\u003etheosis\u003c\/i\u003e and the Western idea of justification have union as the ultimate goal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapters are Salvation as Union,\" *Justification in Recent New Testament Scholarship, - *Deification in the Eastern Orthodox Tradition, - *Justification and Deification in Martin Luther's Theology, - *Deification, Union, and Sanctification in Later Protestant Theologies, - *Salvation as Union: Towards an Ecumenical Convergence, - and *One with God: In Search of a Consensual View of Salvation. -\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eVeli-Matti Kärkkäinen, D.Theol.
